About Georgina
What kind of experience do you have?
I currently teach violin at St. Paul's Cathedral School and have recently moved to Windsor where I am setting up my own teaching studio called Dynamite Strings Violin Lessons.
For the last fifteen years I have been teaching the violin and setting up string teaching projects across London - I have written my own series of books for beginners called Dynamite Strings which has now sold over 1200 copies both in the UK and Japan.
I really enjoy playing and teaching the violin and it is very important to me that my students enjoy their lessons too. Instilling confidence in students and a love for music is one of my main aims as a teacher. My students range from four to sixty-five, from beginners to Grade 8. Whether preparing students for ABRSM exams or experimenting with the electric violin, I am committed to helping students get what they want from their violin lessons and showing them the many facets of the violin. In addition to teaching, I am also an active performer.
Although my training was classical, my ability to improvise and interest in different styles has led to quite a varied career. I was nominated for 'Instrumentalist of the Year 2018' at the UK Americana Awards, have performed with blues musician Seasick Steve, musical theatre star Ramin Karimloo, John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin, Mumford and Sons and Paloma Faith.
Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?

Do you belong to any professional organisations?

I am a positive and encouraging violin teacher and performer based in Windsor. Learning an instrument should be fun and something to look forward to! Everyone learns differently, so I take great care to adapt my approach for each student.
Tell me about your qualifications.
GRNCM First Class honours Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester BMus(Hons) First Class honours Manchester University PGCE QTS UEL and Mossbourne Community Academy Hackney (I studied at the RNCM and Manchester University concurrently on the 'Manchester Joint Course')
Do you have a personal message for students?
I am a firm believer in Shinichi Suzuki's assertion that everyone can learn how to play the violin beautifully – similarly as everyone learns to speak his or her mother tongue beautifully. Yes, it takes time and patience but the rewards are absolutely worth it. I have been extremely fortunate to have received outstanding and inspiring tuition throughout my own musical career and strive to pass this on to my own students. It's never too late or too early to start learning the violin - so I look forward to hearing from you!

Georgina Leach has been teaching my 7 year old son how to play the violin for 9 months and during that time he has made brilliant progress. Georgina is a wonderful violin teacher - very professional, enthusiastic and extremely patient. She tailors the lesson to the interests of my son and above all she makes the lessons fun.
Whether for a child or an adult, I would have no hesitation in recommending Georgina as a violin teacher.She is adaptable to her pupils' specific needs, (in my case as an adult beginner). Her manner is relaxed, good-humoured and cheerful, and she is very encouraging of her students. She has the ability to demonstrate clearly and explain memorably the many aspects of violin playing. I am progressing well under her expert supervision and I look forward to every lesson!
'I can highly recommend Georgina Leach as a violin teacher. My lessons with her have been most enjoyable. She combines the great qualities of being enthusiastic, highly knowledgeable, thorough and well organised in her methods.
