Melinda is a fantastic teacher! and this is a great way to learn violin in my own time. The lessons are calm, clear, and so enjoyable. 5 stars from me :)
I started this course after all my chidren where at school and I had time to myself during the day. I look forward to my 10 minutes to practice each day. (it's usually longer now that I am in a routine). These lessons make everything feel achievable, Mel has made my violin journey so easy in small lessons.
I started violin much later in life. But this is by far the BEST way to learn violin I have tried, supportive lessons. I finally feel confident practising on my own and even play with family members when we get together now. I can't recomend these lessons highly enough.
Mel's lessons are fantatsic, I love her energy and her teaching style, no pressure, and real progress. Highly recommended.
This course removed my fear of playing with others.I now perfom with Moreton Celtic Fiddle Club a fantastic celtic community group Mel is the music director for. Mel and all the members have been so supportive with my violin journey.
Everything is explained clearly and calmly. I actually enjoy practising now :) Thanks Melinda for your teaching style and lessons. I now enjoy attending and playing in irish music sessions around my area.
