We cannot thank you enough Claire for how truly magical your music was on our wedding day. It was even more special and perfectly tailored to us than we could have ever imagined. You matched our venue, vibe and requests perfectly. You were so lovely and easy to communicate with, which made the process so smooth which was so appreciated during a generally stressful time! The fact that you were able to play our favourite song for walking down the aisle absolutely made our day, and our guests said that it was the most beautiful and emotional ceremony they had ever experienced. You were a huge talking point of the day and your beautiful music will forever be in our minds when we think back to our wedding day. Thank you so much, you’re incredibly talented. Lots of love, Lauren and Solomon Coppola 🤍

Online violin lessons

I have been a violin teacher for 8 years and have taught children from 3 - 18 as well as adults.

I have been credited with clear and inspiring methods of teaching and patience and understanding which has been integral to my success with my students. I offer bespoke lessons having the fundamental technique in classical methods but playing any genre including pop and folk

I let the student guide me with their favourite music so that there is always something they are enjoying but there will always be technique and studies running alongside this to balance the lessons and help them progress in skill and knowledge of the instrument. I will also introduce new genres intermittently to enrich their music development and open their mind to other ways the instrument and music can be enjoyed.
I can take them through grades if this is something you would like to do - either the ABRSM syllabus or Trinity
