What Violin Students Say 

"I feel incredibly lucky to have had the most wonderful 5 years studying violin with Deirdre when I was a student at the Junior RNCM and I am so grateful to her for her dedication and commitment. She made learning the violin fun and rewarding. Her knowledge and passion are truly inspiring. I could not recommend her highly enough."  Steven, Principal 1st Violin Hallé Orchestra 2017 

"I studied with Deirdre for three years prior to my undergraduate degree and she proved to be an excellent teacher, especially for the development of my technical freedom and agility. I was adequately pushed by Deirdre and found not only my playing improved rapidly but also my practise quality and motivation." Tom, June 2018. Scholarship - Royal Academy of Music.

Violin Teacher Deirdre Ward

Having performed and recorded worldwide with top international musicians, Deirdre now teaches violin at Chetham's School of Music in Manchester. Violinists and violists of all ages, from beginner to advanced, also come to her home in Morecambe, Lancashire for private music lessons and coaching sessions.

Deirdre loves helping her students gain a greater sense of achievement and enjoyment from their violin playing. She first started teaching in her teens and the continual development in her teaching style over the years has often had as much to do with what she learns from her students as her own extensive training! She also draws on over 20 years experience of Alexander Technique lessons with John Woodward in Lancaster, integrating this unique awareness into her own violin teaching.
