Violin lessons in Turramurra
Patient, one on one violin lessons in Turramurra for children and adults. We start with posture, bow hold and a good sound, and go on to reading, ensembles and AMEB exams for those who want them.
What a violin lesson looks like
We teach at head office (Level 1, 1319 to 1321 Pacific Highway, Turramurra) and at Studio 2 (Level 1, 1273 Pacific Highway, corner of Rohini Street). When you book, we'll let you know which studio your violin lesson is at.
Our violin teachers
Between them, our violin teachers hold AMusA and LMusA diplomas and have played in some of Australia's leading youth orchestras. They teach beginners as carefully as advanced players.
School strings and AMEB exams
Lots of young violinists also play in a school strings program or a youth orchestra. Private lessons give them the time a big rehearsal can't: tuning, shifting, bowing detail and learning their part properly before the next rehearsal.
For students who want a formal goal, the teacher can build lessons around the AMEB syllabus, from Preliminary through the grades. The office handles entries and emails dates and results to you. Students who'd rather just play are just as welcome.
Violin questions parents ask
What size violin does my child need?
Should we buy or hire a violin?
Why does the bow hold get so much attention?
My child plays in the school strings program. Can lessons help?
Do violin students sit AMEB exams?
Young children who aren't ready for an instrument yet often start in our group classes, or with piano lessons to build reading first.
Exceptional Violin Lessons, Highly Recommended! As a parent, finding the right music education for my 8 year old daughter was a priority, and I couldn't be more pleased with the violin lessons we've experienced. The teacher's approach is both nurturing and professional, creating an environment where my child feels encouraged and confident. Overall, the violin lessons have been a wonderful experience. I highly recommend this program to anyone seeking quality music education.
My kid (year 1) started a guitar class with Chris this Term 3, and even though it was his first time trying music, he’s absolutely loving it. Chris has a gentle, intuitive way of teaching that helps beginners feel confident and excited to learn. The lessons are fun, relaxed, and paced just right. My son looks forward to every class, highly recommend!
We are so pleased we discovered ISM. David was very welcoming and Ms Joy has reignited our teenage son's love for piano, after several previous teachers nearly put him off! ISM highly recommended as both personal and professional.
