Take expressive violin lessons with a caring instructor and University of Arizona background

I'm Davina Lynford, a dedicated violin tutor with a Masters degree and over 6 years of experience in teaching violin to students of all levels, from school to college and even professional adults. My expertise lies in a wide range of specialities including Bow Techniques, Ear Training, Music Theory, and Violin Repertoire, among others. I am passionate about providing personalized lessons tailored to each student's unique learning style and pace. My goal is to create a supportive and inspiring environment where students can explore their potential and develop a deep appreciation for the art of violin playing. I take pride in witnessing my students' growth from beginners to confident performers.

Join me for expert violin lessons that not only enhance your skills in Finger Placement, Scales, and Vibrato but also instill a love for music that lasts a lifetime. Let's embark on this musical journey together and unlock your full potential in violin playing.

My personalized tutoring approach is designed to create a supportive and engaging learning environment where students can truly excel in their violin and fiddle lessons. I focus on empathy, creativity, and expressive musicality to connect with students on a deeper level. By incorporating ear training, sight-reading, and creativity, I ensure a well-rounded musical education. I utilize a variety of tech tools like DAWs, fingerboard chart apps, and metronome apps to make online learning interactive and effective. Through orchestral accompaniments and virtual violin apps, I enhance the learning experience, making it both educational and enjoyable. Additionally, I follow diverse curricula such as A-Levels, AP Program, IB, and more to cater to the unique needs of each student. With a small class size of less than 10 students, I provide personalized attention to individuals at school, college, and adult/professional levels. My methodology strengths lie in fostering creativity, building strong foundational skills, and instilling a passion for music that lasts a lifetime. I aim to inspire and guide students to reach their full potential, both as musicians and individuals.
