Private One-to-One Violin Lessons for Adults
It’s never too late to learn the violin — whether you’ve always dreamed of playing or want to return to it after a break. My one-to-one adult lessons are relaxed, encouraging, and tailored entirely to your goals and pace. I work with complete beginners, those revisiting old skills, and advanced players who want to refine their technique or confidence.
Lessons take place in my dedicated music room in Hove, providing a calm, focused environment to explore music at your own rhythm. My aim is to make each session enjoyable and rewarding, helping you build both skill and a deeper connection to the instrument.
Lesson Structure & Focus
Every student learns differently, so I design each lesson around your experience level and personal aims. Together we’ll work on:
-
Building solid technique, posture, and bow control
-
Strengthening tone, intonation, and musical expression
-
Sight-reading, rhythm, and ear training
-
Exploring a mix of classical and contemporary repertoire
-
Preparing for ABRSM or Trinity exams (if desired)
-
Building confidence to perform — even if just for friends or family!
Some adults enjoy a structured approach with regular goals, while others prefer to play for relaxation and personal enjoyment. I’ll help you find the right balance to suit your lifestyle and aspirations.

Progress & Enjoyment
For many adults, learning the violin is both a creative outlet and a personal challenge. I love helping students achieve their own milestones — whether it’s playing their first full piece, passing a graded exam, or performing with confidence. My role is to make learning enjoyable, achievable, and inspiring at every stage.
