About Livia
I am a UK-trained musician with a strong academic background and extensive experience in both performance and teaching. What sets my teaching apart is my ability to break down complex music theory into clear, logical steps that students can truly understand. I do not rely on memorisation or shortcuts — I focus on building deep understanding, confidence, and independence. I work with children, teenagers, and adults, and I am particularly skilled at adapting my explanations to each age and learning style. With children, I am patient, encouraging, and attentive, helping them develop solid foundations and a positive relationship with music. With adults and exam candidates, I provide structured guidance, precision, and clarity. Many of my students come to me after struggling elsewhere and say they finally understand concepts that once felt confusing or inaccessible. My teaching is calm, rigorous, and supportive, combining high standards with genuine care for each student’s progress.

My music theory lessons are carefully designed to develop strong, lasting understanding and exam readiness. Each lesson follows a clear structure while remaining flexible to the student’s needs. I identify gaps quickly and address them methodically, ensuring that no foundational concept is left unclear. Students learn: • precise notation and rhythm • scales, intervals, and key signatures with full understanding • harmony, chords, and musical structure explained logically • exam technique, accuracy, and confidence For children, lessons build curiosity, discipline, and confidence. For older students and adults, lessons offer clarity, efficiency, and depth. In all cases, I expect focus and engagement while providing a calm and supportive environment. My goal is not only exam success, but to give students a secure theoretical foundation they can rely on long term.

I highly recommend her to anyone seeking high-quality violin instruction in a professional and encouraging learning environment.
Livia is very passionate about playing and teaching the violin, sharing from an array of stage experience and academic knowledge, tailoring it to the pupil's capacity. My son's love for the instrument deepened over the last year, lesson by lesson. As proof of this, my son took grades 5, 6, and 7 on ABRSM exams over a 12-month period. It is a rare opportunity to find a teacher with so much dedication and knowledge to offer to her pupils.
An exceptional and highly professional violin teacher. Her lessons are clear, disciplined, and encouraging, with a strong focus on technique, sound, and long-term musical development.

She is an exceptional teacher. Her explanations are clear, structured, and incredibly effective. Concepts that never made sense to me before suddenly became logical and easy to understand. She is patient, supportive, and very professional. I finally feel confident in my learning and truly enjoy the lessons.
I am so grateful to my violin teacher for her amazing guidance and support. Her lessons were inspiring and helped me grow so much as a musician. Thanks to her, I was able to achieve my dream of getting into the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. I truly enjoyed every moment of learning with her!
