*********
Learning the violin (and later the piano) was one of the best things my parents did for me as a child. It taught me extremely valuable lessons - such as the importance of simplicity, discipline, developing a work ethic and becoming your own teacher. It developed skills such as how to listen, how to analyse and evaluate, how to articulate myself, and how to work together with others. They're skills I've taken with me into every other aspect of life. It also gave me life affirming experiences, listening to and performing music with others, and feeling the true power of this art form in its many different contexts. As a society we need music now more than ever. Now I have great pleasure in sharing what I've learnt to others. Having observed different teachers and learning environments over the years, I started to refine the way I approached and taught the violin and piano. Learning an instrument can be very fun and simple, however it does take some time and real consistency in order to progress. If committed, you will get back much more than what you put in.

About the lesson

My approach is centred on creating a positive learning environment based on the needs of each individual. My role is to 100% support you in your development. Whether progressing through grade examinations or playing for fun, I aim to give my students the essential skills so that they can get the best out of their playing time.

I combine a background of classical tuition style, neuroscience, and body mechanics to produce progressive results when applied over a consistent period. I am all about conscious movement and developing self-awareness through practice. The more sensitive and aware we are, the more we can improve and pursue excellence in our playing - this is transferable to the rest of Life.

Learning an instrument (particularly the violin) trains the nervous system, builds character, improves brain function and concentration, increases sensitivity and emotional intelligence, relieves stress, enhances mood and mental stability - amongst many other things.

I personally believe everyone has their own individual journey to go on, due to this each version of success is different. I aim to clarify this for each student so that we can get the most out of the lessons. Whether an adult or a child, every age group has its benefits and disadvantages, so any time is a good time to begin learning.

DETAILS: Average lesson time: 45-60mins Ages: 5+ Although I specialise in Classical violin and piano, I have a wide taste and knowledge in other styles of music. Typical 60 minute lesson is £35 if you are visiting my place, however please note: if I'm required to travel the price can vary depending on circumstances (to be discussed). I can teach via online but much prefer in person due to the immediate feedback of being in the room and the technical challenges of playing. I've been teaching for 10+ years and like to incorporate my wide experience and knowledge into a unique holistic method.

Perfect! My first lesson with Vincent was great - he eased me into the technical aspect of reading sheet music and made sure I was playing the violin in correct form throughout the whole lesson. I would recommend him to anyone just starting their violin journey with Vincent for a strong foundation!

Caroline is a pleasure to teach, bringing a good ethic to lessons and with a great willingness to learn and try new things. I value her trust in the guided instruction, and she has the natural ability and foundation to progress well from here. Looking forward to working together.

Perfect! Vincent is an incredible tutor and human. I started my lessons with him with no prior music knowledge or experience, but his encouraging and holistic approach has allowed me to thrive in my learning. He tailors each lesson to my needs and is fantastic at equipping me with tools and insights into developing my techniques.

Vincent is without doubt immaculate in his craft, and his passion and dedication towards helping his students flourish really echoes. I particularly like his combined teaching style of paying attention to yourself as an individual, not just the instrument you are holding. I also really value the time and detailed guidance he gives me outside of lessons when I have questions. I always look forward to my lessons with Vincent and I truly cannot recommend him enough!

I found Vincent as a teacher on the Superprof platform. Since then, my daughter has been taking violin lessons with him for a year and half.
Vincent is a truly dedicated and inspiring teacher. He has a wonderful balance of patience, encouragement, and professionalism.
Not only did he help her pass Grade 3 , but he also consistently improves her technique, making learning the violin both joyful and rewarding.
She always looks forward to her lessons and speaks so highly of him. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about his students and brings out the best in them.

We’re very grateful to have found such a great teacher!

I started taking violin lessons with Vincent about few months ago, and I really loved it! The challenge was on!!! Vincent is super nice and makes learning the violin fun, explaining things really clearly, and if I don’t understand something, he always find a way to show me until I get it.
Every lesson, Vincent helps me learn new songs and gives me lots of tips to make my playing sound better. Even I make a mistake, he always adjusts my skills and encourage me to keep trying, which makes me feel good.
I’ve learned a lot, and I’m always excited to go to my next lesson!
I really enjoy my violin lessons with Vincent because he is kind, patient, and makes me feel proud of what I can do. I can’t wait for it to keep getting better!
Thank you very much Vincent for being such a great teacher!

Vincent's approach to my learning is incredible. He's super patient, flexible, and has a very mindful approach to all he does - violin and beyond. I love how he incorporates meditative practises in his teaching, I feel it's something that many teachers are missing and it's a key to become a good violinist. Much gratitude to Vincent !
