"I am 54 and have always loved the sound of the violin and only ever dreamed of being able to play, but now thanks to this great person I can and am learning the violin. Thank you.”

"As an adult learner, it’s very difficult learning such a difficult instrument as the violin. I often get demotivated but Julia’s Practice Smarter course helps me to really hone in on practice techniques to keep me focused."

"The course is extremely well organised and flexible. It allowed me to figure my own schedule, and gave me information that I felt was relevant, such as theory alongside the practical aspects of playing violin. Within a month I was already practicing a real piece of music. You have to put in the work of continuous practice, but it's lade easy by the lessons and the comraderie of the student group!"
