Personal Description:

I teach beginner to advanced violin in the Exeter area of the UK.

I specialise in adult tuition. Some of my students learned the violin as children and wanted to start playing again; others had never played before. Adults who are complete beginners are very welcome!

Tutoring Experience:

I trained as a violinist in Winchester under Francis Wells, and have a teaching qualification (PGCE) in music education. I have taught the violin for over 10 years, and currently play with both the Devon Philharmonic Orchestra and the EX4 Chamber Orchestra. I am also a member of the European String Teachers Association.

I also provide tutoring in A-level Religious Studies.

Tutoring Approach:

My teaching style is friendly and encouraging. I aim to help my students develop a good technique, as well as a love of learning and playing. I teach mainly across the classical and folk traditions, but I am very happy to help you explore any genre of music you would like. Some of my students choose to take graded examinations; others simply learn for pleasure.

I am available to teach mornings, afternoons and evenings on weekdays, and mornings and afternoons at weekends. Most of my students have a one hour lesson once a fortnight, although some have lessons weekly, monthly or on an ad hoc basis. Lessons are accompanied by written notes and tips for making the most of your practice sessions.
