Shannon O. says, "We love Emanuelle's studio and her instruction. My husband and I both come from musical families, so finding a strong teacher was a top priority, when our daughter first expressed interested in learning the violin. Emanuelle has exceeded our expectations. As a professional musician, she's knowledgeable, kind, talented and goes above and beyond to make the learning experience enjoyable. The cherry on top is that she's written, illustrated and published the first book she uses for beginners. She knows the content first-hand and even tells stories along the way. We'd give her 10 stars, if we could." Read more

Shelley S. says, "Our son has studied with Dr. Esther Witherell since Fall 2022. In that time, his interest in and commitment to violin have both grown substantially, which we think is at least in part due to her instruction. He has improved in his intonation, tone, posture, and general playing confidence. He has internalized the skills they have been working on together, especially in shifting, articulation, and bow technique. The studio's automated system of payment makes logistics easy, and Esther is always accommodating when it comes to schedule changes." Read more

How much do violin lessons cost near me?

Violin lessons cost $30 to $80 per session for classes starting at 30 minutes long or up to 60 minutes long. A private violin teacher costs $50 to $80 for an hour. A group lesson costs $20 to $30 each time.

You can expect to pay $190 to $360 every month when pre-booking violin lessons.

Are violin lessons worth it?

Violin lessons are worth it if you aspire to enhance your skills rapidly and perform for audiences. Expert tutelage in the violin can aid in cultivating appropriate techniques and tackling challenges efficiently, thus accelerating progress.

Learning violin without private feedback is extremely difficult and takes much longer.

How many violin lessons do I need?

You need as many violin lessons as it takes to reach your personal goals, depending on how good you are now, how much you practice, and how qualified your teacher is. Most folks need to take violin classes regularly for many months before they can play a basic song or read music.

Generally, it takes about 3 to 6 years to start playing many different songs quite well. If you want to play like a professional, it often takes more than 10 years of ongoing practice and tutoring.

How long are violin lessons?

Violin lessons are 30 minutes long for beginners and up to 60 minutes long on average. Extended lessons are only for advanced students, will cost extra, and are subject to the teacher's availability.

What age is best to start violin lessons?

The best age to start violin lessons is between 4 to 7 years old at the earliest, or whenever you have a strong enough focus on learning and can hold the instrument comfortably. Children need to exhibit sufficient physical coordination and concentration before they can start violin lessons.

However, adults are capable of learning and deriving pleasure from playing the violin, irrespective of their age.

How do I find a violin teacher near me?

You can find a violin teacher nearby very quickly by browsing the listings here on the Lessons website. Alternatively, you can ask for affiliated private teachers at local music stores.

  • Before hiring a violin teacher in your area, always remember to:
  • Compare the prices of at least 3 violin instructors.
  • Read what others have said about the teachers on Lessons and Google.
  • Ask them which of their past students you can talk to for a reference.
  • Get a written agreement and a lesson plan before the first lesson.
  • Follow a plan to pay a little at a time until you feel sure the teacher is right for you.

What questions do I ask a violin teacher before hiring?

Here are some questions to help you find the best violin teacher:

  • How many years have you been teaching the violin?
  • What age group of students do you prefer teaching?
  • How many degrees in music do you have, and do you play professionally?
  • Can I try out a lesson for free or with a discount to see if it works for me?
  • Do you have violin rentals at your school if I don't have one at home?
  • How much do I need to practice to reach my goals?
  • What books or sheet music should I buy?
  • Can you change how you teach to help students with special needs?
  • What kind of violin music are you best at teaching?
  • Should I expect homework to memorize?
  • What should I bring, and how long does each class last?
  • Can I get a copy of our class schedule, agreement, and how to pay?
  • What happens if I need to cancel a class due to an emergency?
  • Can I pick some of my favorite songs to learn?

I am so grateful to have found Emmanuelle! I played the violin for a year when I was a child and found myself in my late 20s wanting to learn it again. She is the most patient, kind and encouraging teacher, and she is a beautifully skilled violinist with fantastic methods of teaching. I could not have asked for anyone better, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is wanting to learn or who already plays and wants to further develop/maintain their skills.

Esther is a wonderfully talented musician and an exceptional instructor! As an adult learner and novice violin player, I enjoy that Esther challenges me during lessons. She encourages precision with technical skills but is also dynamic in her approach to teaching. She has come up with creative ways to help me improve my rhythm and it’s working! I leave every lesson feeling encouraged, inspired and motivated.
