The Happy Violinist

The Happy Violinist is a platform that recommends qualified and experienced violin teachers to parents and students in Singapore, for free. We are not your typical violin agency. We are music teachers ourselves, and we work with a vast pool of violin teachers, so we understand what music students really need.

Our teachers are qualified and experienced, whether you want to complete exams from Grade 1 to 8 or Diploma, prepare for violin competitions or simply learn songs for leisure. They are mainly Singaporeans or Singapore PRs, not foreign teachers on short-term work passes, and many students enjoy lessons with them at our studio near Jelapang LRT or at home.

Why students choose The Happy Violinist

Students choose The Happy Violinist because it makes finding the right teacher simple, free and low-risk. Matching is free for students and parents, and there is no lock-in or minimum commitment, so you can start with a single lesson and continue only when you enjoy it. Our teachers are certified by international music examination boards, are graduates of prestigious music colleges and universities, and include current school teachers.

Learning here also goes beyond the lesson room. Students perform at regular Happy Music Recitals held every few months, compete in the annual Happy Music Festival in solo, duo or ensemble categories, join World Strings Day and attend masterclasses led by accomplished musicians and educators. Our community also gets priority booking and promotional rates for concerts by world-class artists, such as German violinist David Garrett’s ICONIC Tour at the Esplanade. Every match is backed by The Happy Violinist Assurance, which protects you for up to $500 in fees owed by teachers who fail to fulfil lessons you have paid for.
