Aureus Academy’s programs are structured to turn aspiring musicians into confident violinists. Whether you’re a total beginner or just want to polish your skills, they’ve got top-notch teachers who know their stuff and have plenty of performance experience.

They offer personalized one-on-one lessons at various centers around Singapore, so you’ve got options. From the very first day, you’ll be jamming on the open strings, and within a month, you’ll be ready to wow your family with a simple song.

By the end of your first year, you’ll have the chance to shine in a recital, boosting your skills and your confidence.

They have an awesome loyalty program too. We love how this feature could save you some bucks on fees. 

Just a quick heads-up—the tuition can be a bit on the expensive side. So if you’re keeping an eye on your budget, or you’re not in the loyalty program, it’s something to keep in mind.

Positive and passionate improvement
“My son started lessons with teacher Dana last year after his teacher from his first school resigned and a poor experience from a 2nd school. Since then, he has improved very much and we see a great improvement in motivation and passion towards learning the violin. He looks forward to lessons every week. Teacher Dana is patient and skillful in her pedagogy in teacher young students, we are blessed to have her as his teacher. We would recommend Aureus United Sq and Teacher Dana to anyone who wishes to see not only results but also enjoyment in music.”

LVL Music Academy offers a range of violin lessons tailored to meet different needs.

For kids, the academy makes learning fun and enjoyable. Your child will not only learn essential violin skills but also develop their musical talents in a supportive and nurturing environment.

Their instructors are incredibly patient and nurturing, perfect for young beginners.

Adults, you’re not left out—the academy provides detailed courses specifically for you, whether you’re just starting or looking to refine your skills. For example, their master class dives into specific areas to help you grow as a musician.

Many students we talked to love the flexible scheduling the most. They say it fits perfectly with busy lifestyles, with lessons available at the studio, at home, or online.

Just a heads-up, though—the academy’s popularity means you might have to wait a bit to schedule lessons with their most sought-after instructors.

Delivers outstanding violin lessons
“I found LVL Music Academy to get a new bridge cut for my violin, as the old one bended. I was happy to meet Alan, the talented luthier there, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He expertly cut and fitted a German bridge, and the improvement in tone is incredible. I love how my violin sounds now! Alan also took the time to help me adjust the tone to my preference and replaced my strings with a new set. The attention to detail and care he put into his work was outstanding. Thank you so much for your help Alan! I’ll definitely be recommending LVL Music Academy for any violin and cello repair work.“

 Top-notch environment for music learning
“If you’re looking to take on music lessons, look no further than LVL Academy, which has a team of some of the best violin, cello and piano teachers in Singapore. On top of providing quality music lessons, LVL Academy also sells musical instruments and accessories at their branch. I came by recently to purchase a violin, and was attended to by the academy’s principals, Janice and Alan, who are both so friendly and humble, and provided top-notch service from start to end. LVL Academy offers a cosy and conducive environment for music learning, with teachers and staff that are both friendly and warm. Apart from music lessons, they also organize concerts throughout the year, giving students the opportunity to perform every now and then, allowing them to showcase their skills and talent. These concerts are well-received by both students and parents. LVL Music Academy is truly your one-stop shop for all your music learning needs. Highly recommended!“

Music Mood makes sure their lessons come with a personal touch to meet everyone’s needs. They offer something for everyone, from adults and kids to beginners and those who love learning online.

What truly sets them apart is their unique blend of the Suzuki Method with ABRSM and Trinity Exam preparation, offering a comprehensive musical education.

We like how this method focuses on starting young and immersing children in music in the same way they learn their native language. It incorporates listening, imitation, and repetition, allowing students to develop their musical abilities naturally.

They also monitor each student’s progress closely, ensuring lessons are effective and adapted to individual learning speeds.

A small note: the high quality of these lessons may come at a slightly higher price than other options. So, if you’re mindful of your budget, this is worth considering.

Support in exploring violin journey
“Thank you Music Mood for allowing me to first experience Violin, since when I initially decided to learn Violin, I wanted to try out by renting a violin to see if I was suited or not. It also truly gives me time to think about whether or not I want to take up violin lessons. I’ve always thought that in order to play something well, you have to love it.”

Passionate teacher
“My 10 yo enjoys his lessons there. Been to other violin centers before and this is the only one where we see improvement and progress. Thanks to teacher Jayden who is patient and passionate about his craft. Highly recommended”

Kayserburg Music School is all about helping you find your rhythm with the violin.

If you’re just starting out, they’ve got you covered with beginner courses—for kids as young as 8, too! They use fun materials like the Fiddle Time series to make it super easy to dive in.

For those advanced players, they offer advanced lessons with a fantastic Suzuki curriculum.

What we find commendable is their focus on not just playing the notes but playing them with others. They have an enrichment program where, after you’ve nailed the basics, you get to join an ensemble and jam together.

And with 38 music schools across Singapore, accessibility is definitely a plus.

However, a potential drawback is that if you like a more flexible and freeform approach where you can explore and learn at your own pace, the step-by-step curriculum might not suit your preferences.

Offers great advice in a beautiful setting
“Nice place with beautiful instruments. Patient and friendly manager Wen Han who provided me with great advice and information.”

The Happy Violinist is great at matching you with a top-notch violin teacher. They’ll get you matched in less than 24 hours, and there are no strings attached. You can even start with just one session if that’s what you’re after.

One student told us she loved the no-pressure vibe. She just goes to lessons when she can.

If you’re a busy adult or have a young musician at home, they’ve got plenty of classes available—from private lessons for kids and adults to pop violin and fast-track theory for violinists.

And if you want to perform, The Happy Violinist holds regular recitals and even a music festival where you can showcase your skills and win prizes.

But keep in mind that they focus on one-on-one lessons, which are great for personal growth. However, if you enjoy the fun and energy of group classes, like sharing ideas and learning from others, this might be something to consider.

Prompt and helpful support
“Valerie has been very helpful in helping me find a violin teacher for my daughter, from the initial shortlisting of a suitable violin to shortlisting of suitable teachers that match my criteria. My daughter is in her third month with Ms Sung Ki who is young and good with kids. Valerie is very prompt in her replies and always ready to help. Certainly recommend her to be entrusted to find a suitable violin teacher for your child. Thank you.”
