About Fiona

Fiona Hutchins won a scholarship to attend the Guildhall School of Music at the age of 16, graduating with Honours in Performance and returning to teach in 1999, where she taught for over twenty years.

Fiona is well known on the Norfolk classical music scene as a former leader of the Norfolk Youth Orchestra, the Norwich Pops Orchestra, Norwich Philharmonic and Mozart Orchestra.

Teaching is a real pleasure for her - she values dynamic and progressive teaching methods, encouraging pupils to play with confidence and imagination. She is particularly keen to encourage mature students interested in returning to practice. Her lessons are designed to encourage the development of pupils of all ages and levels of ability. Fiona teaches violin from her home in Norwich, Norfolk.

Fiona is a licensed practitioner of Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP), which has heightened her understanding of her pupils’ needs and provides another string to her bow as a music teacher. 

Fiona is experienced at organising and performing for weddings and events, arranging programmes as a soloist, or part of a duet, trio or quartet, depending on the requirements of the occasion; she is skilled at planning the ideal repertoire for any function.
