“Exceptional Violin Teacher – Highly Recommended!

Shirley is a truly outstanding violin teacher who has had a remarkable impact on my daughter’s musical journey. From the very first lesson, she created a welcoming and engaging learning environment, making my daughter feel comfortable and excited about playing the violin.

Her teaching approach is both structured and encouraging, allowing young learners to develop confidence while steadily improving their skills. She is incredibly patient, tailoring each lesson to the student’s needs and ensuring a solid understanding of both technique and musicality. Shirley’s passion for music is evident, and her enthusiasm is truly inspiring.

What makes Shirley stand out even more is her genuine inclusivity and dedication to family involvement in the learning process. Over time, my entire family, including grandparents and other relatives, has had the opportunity to sit in on my daughter’s lessons. Shirley not only welcomes this but actively encourages family engagement, recognizing the positive impact it has on a child’s musical development.

As I am not always available, Shirley ensures that I stay updated on my daughter’s progress. She maintains complete transparency, regularly sharing updates and providing materials for home practice. She also offers valuable guidance on how we, as parents and family members, can support my daughter’s learning outside of lessons.

Beyond her excellent teaching methods, Shirley creates a positive, pressure-free environment where my daughter feels motivated and excited to play. She consistently provides encouraging and constructive feedback, fostering a love for music while building confidence.

I wholeheartedly recommend Shirley to anyone looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and supportive violin teacher. Her commitment to her students, her ability to make learning both fun and effective, and her encouragement of family participation make her an exceptional tutor.”

Gabriela, Clydebank (07/03/2025)

“My son started cello lessons with Jessica recently and he’s enjoying it already! We changed tutors as we stopped lessons at school and the change has brought fresh energy and new perspective for us.
Jessica’s knowledge and passion for music and teaching make a real difference. She applies her professionalism in a way that its positive, engaging and enjoyable.
My son is already practicing for the next grade with her, and is enjoying his sessions, which is lovely to see in his enthusiasm and progress.
Thank you Jessica!”

“Very easy to use, found the right tutor for the job.”

Andrew, Sale (21/02/2025)

“I requested tuition from a tutor for intermediate trumpet. I got very quick positive responses from four tutors and I was able to select an excellent tutor who is local to me.
The process was easy and I believe that the introduction fee was worth every penny. Using First Tutors saved me a lot of searching around and I'm glad that I used their services.”

Geoff, Haverhill (05/02/2025)

“Easy to you use, but I think you should make it clear at the beginning of the site that there is an admin fee”
