Mairi is a wonderful tutor – she is incredibly dedicated to her students and always works with great enthusiasm and specificity. I would thoroughly recommend her for anyone looking for a dedicated, positive and skilled tutor to learn from.
Mairi Hawthorn is an honest, trustworthy and positive girl. She has an open, friendly nature so children and adults can relate easily to her. She has spent time as a live in Nanny in her summer holidays.
Mairi is from a musical family. Her parents, siblings and Mairi herself, play many instruments. Mairi studied Fiddle (Violin) and Voice when she attended the Traditional School of Music in Plockton, Scotland.View more recommendations
