Lessons for every level

Whether your child is a complete beginner or already learning to play the violin, lessons are matched to their level so they progress at a comfortable pace.

Expert instructors

Our violin instructors have studied with some of Europe’s finest musicians and specialise in teaching children rather than adults.

Nurturing and supportive

Children are never judged or criticised. They are guided with patience and positivity, and every milestone is celebrated.

Building confidence

Our goal is to help children grow in confidence, discipline and a love for music that lasts a lifetime.

Learning how to play the violin will be a rewarding experience that provides lifelong skills to your children and helps them express their inner musical voice.

At The Children’s Music Academy, we are delighted to work with excellent violin instructors who know how to inspire children and pass their love of the instrument on to them, while providing an excellent violin education.

They have themselves studied with the greatest violin masters in Europe and possess all the necessary skills and experience to offer a fabulous violin instruction to your little ones.

Depending upon their current ability, your children will either be introduced to violin playing or helped to improve their violin skills in a manner that will make it easy for them to understand.

They will never be judged or criticised. On the contrary, your children will be kindly and patiently guided through the steps of violin playing and always rewarded and encouraged for all improvements.

At The Children’s Music Academy, we only believe in positive criticism and always motivate our violin pupils greatly for them to flourish at the best of their ability!

Our violin lessons for children are held in W1 (West One), Central London, taught one to one by instructors who specialise in teaching young players.

Common questions

Where are the violin lessons held?

In Fitzrovia, W1 — a few minutes from Oxford Circus and Great Portland Street — and in studios across Central London.

Who are the teachers?

Experienced performers and teachers who have studied under some of Europe’s finest musicians, and who specialise in teaching children rather than adults.

How are the lessons structured?

Weekly, on a set day and time. Each lesson builds technique, musical expression and confidence together rather than drilling one at the expense of the others, and the balance is matched to your child rather than to a fixed syllabus.

How long is each violin lesson?

Lessons are 30, 45 or 60 minutes. Shorter lessons usually suit younger beginners; longer lessons suit children who are progressing towards more demanding repertoire.

When can my child start?

At any point in the year. Lessons are weekly on a set day and time, and are paid monthly.

Does my child need to have played before?

No. Complete beginners are welcome, and lessons are tailored to the level your child is starting from.

What if my child is not especially talented?

Then they are like almost every child who starts. Talent is not the entry requirement — attention is, and a good teacher builds that. Children are never judged or criticised here, and progress is measured against where your child began rather than against anybody else.

What is the minimum commitment?

Two months. Lessons are paid monthly, and notice of four teaching weeks can be given from the end of the first month — so the shortest possible commitment is two months.

A child who learns the violin develops three gifts for life:
a trained ear, the discipline to master something difficult,
and the ability to express what words cannot.
These are gifts that remain long after childhood.
