Our violin teachers are conservatorium graduates and prize winners with years of experience preparing students for AMEB grades, eisteddfods and orchestral auditions. Several play regularly in chamber and community ensembles around Sydney.

Beginners start with posture, tone and reading; more advanced students work on repertoire, technique and performance preparation. Because lessons are one to one, the teacher can change direction mid-lesson based on how you are responding, rather than following a fixed group plan.

Violin lessons for beginners and growing musicians

For a child beginning violin, start by discussing their age and experience with us. We can help match a teacher and discuss what to bring to the first lesson. Ask about a suitable instrument size and what you need before buying or hiring a violin.

Our one-to-one violin teaching supports individual goals, from learning the first notes to preparing performances and AMEB examinations. Tell us about any previous study so we can help you choose the next step.
