I started violin lessons with Ed in January 2025, after years of looking with guilt at the dusty violin in my attic that I’d played whilst at school (I’m now nearly 50yrs). Over the months I have spent under Ed’s expert and patient instruction, I have been able to discover a love for the violin that I don’t think I ever had as a younger person. When I think back to my memories of playing the violin in childhood, I think of enforced practice, criticism, stage fright, anxiety and self-doubt. Now I play my violin for fun and relaxation. Ed has completely turned this instrument around for me, and has enabled a journey of self-growth that I really hadn’t expected, and for which I will always be eternally grateful. Learning an instrument is about so much more than learning how to play; it’s about musicality and confidence, memory and the emotional power of music, and Ed really understands this. I always enjoy my lessons; Ed never gets impatient with me if I haven’t had time to practice, and always finds something to keep my interest going. Thank you Ed!

Ed has been a brilliant teacher for me for coming up to a few years now. I am an adult learner having only played to ~grade 1 as a young child. Ed is a great teacher well versed in all the playing skill and musical theory required for a good teacher. But what sets Ed apart is his wonderful knowledge of a variety of music styles - and through his help I have not only been able to improve my playing but start to focus, as an adult learner, onto what my goals are and what kind of music I like to play. I hope to continue my focus on folk music for the moment and hope to achieve my goal of being able to consistently and comfortably play in folk sessions in the future.

Ed is an amazing violin teacher! My son has improved so much since starting lessons and always looks forward to them. Ed is patient, encouraging, and makes learning enjoyable. We’re so grateful for Ed's guidance and highly recommend him!
