Creative Violin tutor
I am a semi-retired primary school music teacher with 23 years teaching experience. The children and adults that I teach experience fun, enjoyable piano lessons, planned to their individual needs.For many years I have privately taught piano to a large number of children and adults. I teach all Associated Board of the Royal School of Music grades and achieved Grade 8 myself.When teaching I am patient and try to be as flexible with school and family commitments as I can be.

Dania A
Violin tutor
Nice to meet you! My name is Dania and I am currently a first year medical student at Newcastle university. Having done my fair share of exams, I know how stressful preparation can be, which is why I would love to help you. I will tailor lessons to suit your needs and guide you step by step through exam questions. First, by going over what you already know and ensuring that you are confident with the foundations in any subject. Then, targeting areas in specifications where you feel less confident in. During this, we will also focus on exam questions to help you secure the most marks when it comes...

Paul K
Paul is a wonderful tutor match if, like me, you need someone who is not only passionate about playing music with feeling, but is also kind, compassionate and confidence building! I'm an adult student (in Ireland) who played violin until age 16 then let it go for over 40 years...until now! Although my playing is back to beginner level, Paul is giving me the encouragement and appropriate challenges to build my ability and confidence up. His positivity and lightness make this a joyful learning exploration rather than a hard or heavy lesson, and I am very grateful for his intuitive understanding of what is needed. Highly recommend!

Laura has been a true find. She is a wonderful teacher, technical and has really provided confidence to Hassan. Through Covid she has helped our son to complete both grade 3 and 4 violin with high marks and now our son wants to prepare for grade 5. I would not hesitate to recommend Laura and thank her for all the support she has provided Hassan over the past 2 and half years. Thankyou Laura

Marie C
It was a very lovely inspiring session. Son’s confidence and determination to playing the piece was reassured by Marie, as she she showed him he could deliver areas in the piece he had felt was too difficult. Marie wasn’t about the the time booked, but the comfort of knowing her student was comfortable and understood the lesson. This wasn’t a pressured teaching method, rather ensuring the students love for music continued. I was so pleased with the session, and hearing my son’s feedback, on how enjoyed the lesson so much, that I booked the next lesson immediately. I will highly recommend her as a tutor to any student.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child's at a state school in Leeds. Can a tutor really help them compete for places at institutions like the Leeds Conservatoire?

Absolutely. This is exactly where one-to-one tutoring can make a huge difference. An expert tutor can provide the focused, specialist coaching on technique, performance, and audition preparation that complements their school music lessons, helping them build the portfolio and confidence needed to stand out.

Is online tutoring effective for a practical instrument like the violin?

Yes, very. With high-quality video and audio, tutors can clearly see and hear technique, from posture and bow hold to intonation. They can demonstrate passages, share sheet music instantly, and provide targeted feedback. It offers the same personal attention as in-person lessons with far more flexibility.

What happens if my child doesn't click with their first violin tutor?

Finding the right mentor is essential, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session with a tutor isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.

How do you ensure your violin tutors are high quality?

We're very selective. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked, and has to prove their expertise. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a passionate and experienced professional.

My child is a complete beginner. Is online tutoring suitable for them?

It's a fantastic way to start! A tutor can guide your child through the absolute basics – from holding the instrument correctly to making their first sounds – in a patient, encouraging, one-to-one environment, building a strong foundation from day one.

We live in Leeds but tutors are UK-wide. How do they understand what my child needs?

Great music education is universal. Our tutors are experts in the UK's graded exam systems (like ABRSM and Trinity) and the requirements for higher education entry. The 'local' part is your child learning comfortably from their home in Leeds; the expertise comes from the best tutors, wherever they are.

What equipment do we need for an online violin lesson?

It's simple. Your child will need their violin, a laptop, tablet or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. That's it! Your tutor will handle the rest, often sharing resources digitally during the lesson.

How much do online violin lessons for a student in Leeds cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees, and you can find brilliant tutors to suit a range of budgets.

Can a tutor help with music theory as well as practical playing?

Many of our violin tutors are also brilliant at teaching music theory, which is often a requirement for higher grade exams. You can check their profiles for details or use our search filters to find a tutor who specialises in both.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most students have one lesson per week, as this provides a great balance of new learning and time for practice. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child's goals and your family's schedule with your chosen tutor.

My child also plays the piano. Do you offer tutors for other instruments?

We do! Beyond violin, we have expert online tutors for a huge range of instruments like piano, guitar, and flute, as well as academic subjects from maths and science to English. You can find support for all your family's learning needs in one place.

What equipment do we need for an online violin lesson?

Yes, this is a key area where a tutor can provide immense support. They can teach coping strategies, run mock performances, and help build the confidence that allows your child's preparation and talent to shine through when it matters most.
