Testimonials
“With time and patience Miranda Davis has developed a class of young students who play with energy, enthusiasm, and understanding of how to play individually and as a group at a very high level. Beautifully relaxed bow arms, clean intonation and a rich sound are a principle something each of them grow up with as a result of Miranda's diligent attention to detail and taking time without rushing through things with quick fixes. Miranda has managed to instil a real sense of discipline and what it takes to play music well, as well as having fun on that journey.”

“We feel extremely lucky to have had Mimi teach our daughter from the age of 5. As professional musicians, my wife and I appreciate the importance that Mimi places on laying down the best possible foundations to achieve a good technique. Mimi takes the utmost care of her student’s musical development. The extremely impressive results that result from her teaching methods can be heard at the student’s concerts that she organises regularly. We couldn’t recommend her highly enough.”

“Mimi was the first music tutor after a long search who was able to explain her teaching method which perfectly links with my parenting style, and it enabled my then 4-year-old son to begin to develop new skills. I am grateful to have a genuinely enthusiastic violin tutor for my son and see how she shapes the expectations according to my son’s level of understanding and needs. It is wonderful to see my boy getting to know an instrument and enjoying the process.”

“Our daughter has really enjoyed her violin lessons with Mimi. The lessons have been tailored to her personality and needs, ensuring that she is motivated in a fun and engaging way. Mimi has always shown warmth and enthusiasm in her teaching, working closely with us as a family to support our daughters learning and development not just of her playing, but also her musical awareness and listening skills. We would highly recommend Mimi!”

“Dear Miss Davis,
TianyuEastbourne College, Head Girl
Just a note to say how grateful and humbled I am for all your help and support for me over these past years. Your encouragement and belief in my playing has really helped me develop my skills as a solo artist and chamber musician and I've thoroughly enjoyed going to every single lesson and learning something new. Thank you for teaching me the simple joys of Bach and Mozart. It has been a priviledge learning with you.
Love from
Tianyu”

“Dear Mimi,
SophieViolin teacher St Ronan’s Preparatory School
I wanted to say thank you for the Strings Day, I am one of the violin teachers at DPS and St Ronan’s and all my pupils really enjoyed the day. My Senior Strings group from Saint Ronan’s all came, and it has given them a real boost. We all liked your choice of music - I didn’t know the 'Born Free' or 'Game of Thrones' arrangement, but they were very effective. I was impressed with the standard.
I hope you are planning a repeat performance next year.
With best wishes,”
