The studio is very comfortable for students. And Teachers are very knowledgeable and very considerate in setting achievable goals. We could see progress and development in our son’s piano skills.The teacher we had is Gabe and some subtitute teachers such as Samuel, Alex, Adele.Note to the admin who always give reminders and care for the student’s timetable, and making sure we are happy and taken care of.

Although mostly servicing school-age music students, Alla's Music Studio caters for all ages and is a really well-operated music school.Jack McNamara has been giving me trumpet lessons there since mid December 2022 and I could not expect to have a better teacher.Jack is incredibly passionate not just about playing trumpet, but in imparting his knowledge and experience to others.Jack is beyond his years in maturity and ability to connect with his students.For over four months so far, he has kept me engaged and excited in learning this most difficult of instruments.The more I improve, the more he feeds my hunger for greater challenges with clever tips, tricks and things to practice between lessons.

Alla and her team are amazing. My little one and myself have both enjoyed the piano lessons with the teacher, Agnes, not only because she focuses on the accuracy of the notes, but the theories by showing and asking my little one to write the notes. This is something, I know, my little girl will benefit forever. Agnes is a super star, with clear instructions and encouraging tones. Thank you. Also thank you to Rita - the best assistant you can ever find in Australia!

Alla’s music team is very welcoming & professional. This music studio has a very friendly atmosphere & Liam is very patient with my son. He is very skilled and focused on my son’s learning. I see my son growing in confidence in his guitar skills. Liam understands my child’s interests & not only teaches him how to play guitar with good technique, but he also encourages my child to enjoy it! Liam also emails recordings for practice. Highly recommend Liam for guitar learning.

Alla and staff are incredibly nice to deal with and very prompt when I have to reschedule or cancel my daughter’s piano lesson, which has happened a few times during 2022. Another good thing about the studio is that lessons continue throughout the school term breaks, unlike most other extracurricular activities. My daughter has progressed so much in the short time she’s been learning piano at the studio. It’s a testament to the expertise and professionalism of Alla and staff members. Highly recommend sending your kids to this studio!

One of the parents asked me to wright a review about Alla’s Music Sudio, so here it is. I have 3 kids who are all into music. My daughter, the oldest, plays violin both the traditional and Suzuki method. My oldest son plays acoustic piano, keyboard and every other musical instrument which has keys on it, and my little son plays drums. Many years ago when my kids were just starting to take music lessons, finding a good music teacher for each instrument was not easy, and then driving the kids to different places for their music lessons was like having a full-time job. Fortunately, this has changed after we found Alla’s Music Studio. The studio provides musical education for all ages, all instruments and all methods. The teachers are all experienced musicians. I was able to book music lessons for my kids so that they all have it on the same day at the similar time. I leave my kids at the music school and then pick them up after the lesson; I have more free time now to do whatever I need. The school is in the short driving distance from Ormond, where we currently live. I’ve met some parents who are based in Balaclava, Malvern and Caulfield, and a happy to drive the kids which is still only 15 mins drive from where they are. If you are living in one of the below suburbs and looking for a music teacher for private or group lessons, I think that Alla’s music school would be one stop for all your child’s music education. Brighton, Highett, Murrumbeena, Clayton, Cheltenham, Hughesdale and Oakleigh. They also have a website with the pricing info, holiday program, etc..

Alla’s Music Studio was recommended to me by a friend. I was looking for a good and affordable piano teacher in Bentleigh, and when I met Alla I felt confident that my son will receive the music education on the professional level. We have been attending Alla’s Music Studio for about 4 months now and my son’s piano skills have certainly improved. I would recommend this service to any parent who is currently looking for a professional music school around Bentleigh area in Melbourne

Our Amazing Music Teachers

A unique, Bespoke, tailored programme of tuition to help people of all ages and abilities to make progress, enriching lives through music, developing their confidence and improving musical skills

Our Violin Teachers

Harry Nguyen

Having begun his musical journey on the violin at age 6, Harry is a classically trained violinist with more than 15 years of experience and is currently finishing his musical education at the Melbourne University Conservatory of Music, specializing in performance under the tutelage of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra violinist Oksana Thompson and professional solo violist, Wenhong Luo.

Road to Mastering the Violin

In 2018 as concertmaster of the String Ensemble and Orchestra, Harry graduated St Michael's Grammar School with the Anne Jones Memorial Prize for Instrumental Music and is currently the recipient of multiple Corinna D'Hage String Scholarships at the University of Melbourne while being a member of the University Symphony Orchestra and multiple Chamber Quartets, playing both Violin and Viola.

Harry's Experience

Harry has performed orchestral, chamber, and solo work at major concert venues, including Hamer Hall, Melbourne Recital Centre, the NGV, Deakin Edge and Iwaki Auditorium. Experienced in a wide range of repertoire, from 18th-century baroque music, to the romance of Tchaikovsky in the 19th, and through to musical theatre of the present, Harry's experience in a vast range of musical styles in both solo and collaborative manners has cultivated his love and passion for music as a whole.

 

Teaching Style

Funnelling that passion for music, Harry's teaching aims to provide an outlet for musical expression supported by a stable technical foundation, facilitated by learning that is informative as it is engaging, making sure each and every student knows what they're practising and what goals they attain, whether it be technical dexterity, quality of sound, or musical expression.

Every student's goal is to develop technical competence, expression, and a love for music that they may express via their performance. Each student will learn at their own pace and love what they play, whether for fun or for AMEB exams.

Frances Reuben

Frances is currently completing a music industry diploma and has been teaching violin privately for over seven years. She achieved her AMusA diploma in 2017 and has completed all AMEB exams with excellent results.

Frances has experience teaching students of varying abilities and strives to create a positive learning environment where they feel supported and inspired to play. She believes that great results come from open and honest communication between students, teachers, and parents.

Vitus Lai Melbourne Conservatorium of Music, ATCL (piano)

Growing up learning both the piano and violin, Vitus is a classical piano and violin teacher at the studio. Before his studying at The University of Melbourne (Melbourne Conservatorium of Music), he obtained LTCL in violin and ATCL in piano in his teens.

His Experience and Teaching Approach

Vitus began to teach the violin starting in 2018. He has different levels of students from beginners to advance level players and he knows a great variety of repertoire from 16th-century music to 20th-century music. He believed the purpose of learning instruments isn’t just attending different examinations and competitions, learning different kinds of techniques, but learning the entire stories behind the music and knowing how to express yourself through music.

Vitus puts a heavy emphasis on the structure of his students’ learning progress, as well as the fundamentals. He believes that a musician can only go so far if their foundation is not properly built. To help his students lay a solid foundation, he often meticulously structures not only each lesson but each student’s learning progress according to their strengths and weaknesses. Immensely appreciating classical pieces, he is also very knowledgeable in the backgrounds of both solo and orchestral masterpieces.

Violin Lessons FAQ

Can I teach myself violin?

You may learn the violin like any other instrument. A method book, YouTube lessons, WikiHow and Stack Exchange articles, and more can be found online or in libraries.

How long will it take to learn the violin?

As with any other job, playing the violin professionally requires years of dedication and practice. Can you give me a ballpark estimate of how long it will take to learn the violin? To be honest, that decision rests squarely in your lap. You may accomplish much in the next three to five years if you stick to a regular and consistent training regimen.

What is the best age to learn violin?

5-7

Between the ages of 5 and 7, if your kid is motivated and can pay attention, that is when they should start learning to play the violin. But if your kid is a little younger or older, that shouldn't stop you. You can obtain a referral from a music store or a teacher.

Do violin strings expire?

Strings on violins do eventually wear out, unfortunately. So, it's probably not true that someone once found an old violin in a drawer and it played brilliantly the same second it was picked up. When it comes to keeping a violin in tip-top shape for playing, routine maintenance, such as string replacement, is essential.
