Kodurand Violin School

We were recommended Simon at Kodurand Violin School as a fantastic first violin teacher and can see why! Our 6 year old really enjoys the lessons and has improved so much. The lessons are fun and accessible, helping to cultivate a hopefully lifelong love of playing the violin.

I came to Kodurand violin studio as an adult learner of grade 4. As an older learner I was apprehensive but from my first lesson Simon put me at ease and he has since taught me in a professional, fun and engaging way. He is attentive to what the student wants and steers the lessons accordingly whilst still getting the maximum out of learning. I have come on leaps and bounds since starting with Simon, his teaching technique is brilliant, it’s animated and helps you make your music come alive ...

Best decision I ever made for my daughter's music training. Kodurand Violin studio is a real professional and Liv is a real teacher, and I can tell you she is the main reason my child's love for the violin and the excitement for each class. Liv is so successful; build a great friendship with her in fact my daughter is only 5 and a half years old, but she says she wants to be a violin teacher when she grows up.

Liv is an exceptional violin tutor and our 8 year old daughter has blossomed in confidence as well as musical ability since her lessons began. The lessons are enjoyable and Liv has a lovely calm and patient presence as well as incredible musical talent. Very glad we found Kodurand Violin Studio!

I have been having lessons with Liv and Simon for over a year, having not really picked up a violin since I was a child. I have progressed so much and achieved a distinction at Grade 2. I now have the confidence to perform in front of other students and have joined a community orchestra. I really enjoy my lessons as Liv and Simon are relaxed and personable yet still push me to achieve my best. Highly recommended.
