Having the right violin teacher is everything

When it comes to learning the violin, the tutor will be by far the most important and influential figure in a student's musical development, so having the right person is paramount to becoming the best musician one can be and actually having fun in the process!

One of the things that makes learning with Lycaeum so great is the tremendous amount of care we take when we select the relevant tutor for each student.

How it works

Our violin teachers

All our violin tutors are professionals or late stage students from London’s top conservatoires, such as the Royal Academy of Music and the Royal College of Music, and are all DBS checked, so you know you will be in very good hands!

In order to teach violin lessons for Lycaeum, our tutors must first pass a series of thorough personal checks and interviews, and show the relevant experience and expertise not only as professionally trained violin virtuosos, but also as tutors in various educational settings. Additional skills beyond mere competency on the violin are a must, such as patience, organisation, and very good empathetic listening

We only work with the top 10% violin tutors in London!

Violin lessons online

If price is a concern, or if it’s simply not convenient for you to welcome a tutor into your home, we also offer private online lessons for up 50% less compared to face-to-face lessons.

Our online violin tutors will create a bespoke learning experience for each student, whether children or adults, for as cheap a price as can be found in the UK for this level of tuition.

All our online violin students will of course still benefit from our great range of events, concerts, competitions, and group courses. You can always upgrade to face-to-face lessons whenever you feel ready!

Getting a violin

We'll offer you a free violin for the first month, after which it'll cost only £9 a month for as long as you need it.

We can help our students find a violin that suits them, helping you make the best decision when getting your musical instrument. Our tutors have excellent technical knowledge, and will be able to make suggestions based on their expansive experience as both teachers and former students themselves.

Many prospective students and parents hold back from beginning violin lessons, believing them to be inaccessible. At Lycaeum, we believe that music should be available for everyone.

Lycaeum Music is a service focused on delivering specialised music tuition at home, online, or in group settings to children and adults across London. We have been featured in the local media on numerous occasions, even being on featured on prime-time BBC Radio London three times so far!

We have been particularly successful with the MusicOnWheels social inclusion project, where we bought a double decker bus and converted it into a musical space, taking it to various areas of London to deliver musical education free at point of use to underprivileged children in London, in partnership with Brent, Westminster, and the Arts Council. A 6min presentation video made by Emmy award winning film-maker Joe Pavlo is available here.
