About Fiona
I love teaching, and take great pride and satisfaction in finding ways to communicate how music is put together and works. Learning music is going to help every student become a more confident learner and independent thinker, through gaining transferable skills.

100% of my students have passed their grade 5 theory with me over the last 20 years. Theory is a really valuable part of your music training, but many students feel afraid and daunted by having to take this exam. My lessons will ensure you leave feeling confident and knowledgeable.

I've seen Fiona presenting a chamber music recital and a masterclass to high-school students in Scotland with a superb quality, kindness and welcoming attitude! I can surely recommend Fiona as a trustworthy tutor.
Starting lessons with Fiona was one of the best decisions I ever made. Not only did I massively improve with my music theory, but my love for music blossomed. I also struggle with dyslexia, so while teaching me music theory, Fiona found ways to adapt her teaching to meet my learning style. I honestly couldn’t recommend Fiona enough!
Fiona took over teaching flute and saxophone to my 2 daughters when the school’s were closed due to covid. We have continued lessons with Fiona and have been having lessons for 2 years now.
Fiona came highly recommended to us as she had taught flute to several of my daughter’s friends..
I remember them saying that in the first lesson alone Fiona had spotted and corrected various technique errors which immediate improved their daughter’s playing. My daughter had the same experience with Fiona during her first lesson.
Fiona was also recommended by our piano teacher who hosted music grade exams for a great many years.
Fiona has been very supportive with lessons but has also guided my 2 daughters through Grade 5 theory and helped with instrument selection when progressing through to higher grades.
The majority of our lessons have been online with Grade exams also online however lessons switched to 1:1 where possible in accordance with government covid guidelines.
I would like to highly recommend Fiona McLaughlin to you as a music teacher. Fiona is very passionate about music and a gifted woodwind teacher. She is an amazing person and very well-respected in this community. My daughter has taken flute lessons from Fiona from grade 6 to 8 (achieved distinctions in all) and finally achieved a diploma before heading off for uni. Fiona was excellent at teaching not only the technical aspects of flute playing, but also how to communicate and interpret a piece to give an effective performance. I am tremendously grateful to her for everything she taught my daughter and the joy her music brought to our family and that she can continue to enjoy playing the flute at uni.
Fiona has been teaching me flute for a couple of years now. She is patient, always stretching me to attempt ever more complicated pieces. When I think I have reached the limits of my ability and she introduces me to new techniques and encourages me to keep progressing. I would highly recommend Fiona as a flute teacher.
My husband and I first came across Fiona prior to retirement. We both harboured a long held desire to learn about music and play a musical instrument. We find her to be patient and intuitive, constantly gauging our respective abilities on a session by session basis. Instruction is therefore set to stretch us slightly, but in a manageable way. As a result our competence has steadily improved at the same time as being a thoroughly enjoyable and satisfying experience.
I would never go to anyone else, phenomenal teacher who has the patience of a saint and is truly a wealth of knowledge!!
As a mature student with very limited ability I was nervous about learning an instrument. Fiona’s professionalism and patience, combined with a good sense of humour, very quickly put me at ease. With her help I have achieved more than I ever thought I could. An easy recommendation for all ages!
I really enjoyed my introduction lesson with Fiona she’s very welcoming and pitched the lesson just right for me..I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and her style of teaching..she brings a real energy and enthusiasm into the room.
