Perhaps you may be considering to take group violin lessons in a Singapore music school, or engage a private violin teacher to take violin lessons one on one. My advice is to take violin lessons one on one with a violin teacher, since this will guarantee you personal attention. In learning to play the violin, you need to build a solid foundation whereby you learn the proper bowing and fingering technique. In an individual lesson, your teacher will be able to properly guide you through this process. You will find that you progress faster with individual rather than group violin lessons. Whether you take the violin lessons in a Singapore music school or at home, you will benefit from this drastically.
  
Today, a growing body of research confirms what I sensed: There are neurological benefits to musical training from an early age, when the brain is forming. Research also associates childhood music lessons with higher grades, test scores, and self-esteem. And starting young means children have a better chance at becoming accomplished musicians, if that's where their interests take them.

First tip: source for your music teacher through a Singapore music school
  
But not TOO young! Along with being a musician, I am a mother of three (including two teenagers who are pre-professional musicians, and a 6-year-old budding cellist); and I am the director and a teacher at a school that has taught music to hundreds of youngsters of all ages. Here's what practical experience has taught me about launching children happily and successfully into the world of music.

Some of the best violin teachers in Singapore spend part of their time teaching in a music school. They may find that this is more convenient for them since they will not need to travel from one student's place to another. As such I highly recommend you to search for your violin teacher in Singapore through a music school.
  
1. ENRICH THE BABIES. Teaching an instrument to a child under 3 is an exercise in frustration. Instead, bring them to hear live music. Give them simple toy instruments, like keyboards - kids love pressing buttons. If you ever played an instrument, dust it off and start playing again, in front of them.
+
Second tip: Interview the teacher
  
2. THERE IS A MAGIC NUMBER. It's about 3 ½ . For many children, that's the age when they can begin to concentrate long enough for instrument lessons - especially if the instrument is a piano.
+
When you get a couple of recommendations, find some time to meet your teacher to ask some important questions. You will need to know his teaching experience and qualifications. Ask the teacher how many students he has taught in his career and what is the percentage of his students who have stayed with him for more than two years. Typically if he has many students who stay with him for more than two years, he is able to retain his students. You can assume he has the right teaching method which translates to success in his students.
  
3. CAN YOUR PRESCHOOLER FOCUS? If the child can focus on a task like a puzzle or shape sorter for 20 minutes, that child is probably ready. (If he doesn't sit still for more than 20 seconds, don't despair - he'll get there later!)
+
Third tip: Check out the Singapore music school
  
4. START WITH PIANO LESSONS. Although violins are made in baby sizes, they are extremely difficult for most youngsters under 4 ½. Piano is so much better. The child can sit comfortably. There's a palette in front of them - black and white keys They can concentrate on listening for high and low tones - basic ear training. And there's gratification from the beginning: Press the key and it sounds good!
+
Make a trip to the music school which the violin teacher is attached to. Speak to the principal in charge to find out more. You will be interested to know how many years the music school is operating, what is the student enrolment, what type of music instruments aside from violin the school teaches, how many teachers the school employs.
  
5. MAKE IT SOCIAL. The best classes for this age are like a great big playgroup, with the instrument as the focus. Children can't wait to see their friends. If there are no classes like this in your area, consider finding another preschooler or two to join your child's beginning lessons.
+
Fourth tip: Watch a violin lesson in progress
  
6. DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Get at least three recommendations from other parents. You and your child should meet the teacher in advance, and tour the facility (whether it's a music school, or the instructor's house.)
+
It would be advisable if you can request the school if you can view the progress of a violin lesson conducted by the teacher. You can opt to observe this from outside the classroom so you can judge how effective and patient the lesson is.
  
7. SEEK RECITALS. Most preschoolers love to perform for family and friends. The children dress up; they shop for a special outfit; they even get new shoes! During or after the recital, there should be a reception (We call it a "party!") The kids will run around, eat cookies and carrots, accept congratulations, and feel great!
+
Well, I hope I have given you some pointers which will be able to guide you towards finding a good violin teacher in Singapore.

Violins are best known in classical music and orchestra. This stringed-instrument is regarded as majestic, romantic, and poignant. And because of these properties, violin does not often find itself in the mainstream music. However, today, violinists are becoming a trendy inclusion in some rock bands who want to add some melodrama in their fast and loud music. Some notable violinists which played for rock performances include Sugarcane Harris, Boy Calvin Tinsley of Dave Matthews Band, and Eddie Jobson who played for Curved Air, Roxy Music, and Frank Zappa.
  
8. KEEP THE REWARDS FLYING. Children are very goal-oriented, so hand out a LOT of rewards, stickers and small toys. When your child gets antsy, you can say, "If you can play these three measures, you get a sticker." It works like a miracle!
+
For young musicians nowadays, learning how to play the violin won't just lead them to play in the orchestra, the church, or in a romantic dinner date.
