Violin & Cello lessons.

We teach violin and cello in two formats: private one-to-one lessons and small adult group classes in packages.

Most people are choosing between private and group. Here’s our take: private lessons for focused progress and exam preparation; adult group lessons for an accessible, social way to begin.

Choose your instrument and learning path

Violin for children and adults. Children can begin from four in private lessons. Adults can choose private tuition or a beginner group. The violin lesson guide brings together teacher profiles, beginner materials and a student experience.

Cello for children and adults. Private lessons start from six; adults can enquire about private or beginner group classes. Read the cello lesson guide for teachers, classroom instruments and first-lesson preparation.

For either instrument, compare the fees and paid trial arrangements, read student reviews and check travel to the Woodlands studio near Marsiling MRT. When you enquire, tell us the learner’s age, instrument, experience, goals and preferred days so we can check a suitable teacher and slot.
