Violin Lessons for Music Lovers
Exploration
Exploring Classical and World Folk Music
Explore a rich and diverse repertoire — from Bach to Celtic tunes, from waltzes to world melodies.
Expression
Play with Expression and Emotion
Learn to go beyond the notes, using dynamics, phrasing and tone to bring each piece to life.
Connection
Connect Through Music, Not Just Technique
Develop a personal relationship with your instrument, and experience music as a form of self-expression and connection.
A Personalized Learning Path
Everyone experiences music differently. That’s why my violin lessons follow a personalized approach, where each student — child, teen or adult — progresses at their own rhythm.
I carefully adapt exercises and activities to each person’s strengths, sensitivities, and current focus — whether it’s posture, rhythm, music theory, or intuitive playing.
There’s no single path to learning the violin. By listening to each individual’s natural curiosity and adjusting accordingly, we build a joyful and confident journey — one that nurtures personal growth just as much as musical skills.
Music Beyond Lessons
My teaching goes far beyond individual violin lessons. At the end of each semester, I organize a small, informal concert open to all students and their families. It’s a chance to share what we’ve explored during our sessions — and to experience the joy of making music together.
For many, performing in front of others is a powerful and transformative step. It builds confidence, presence, and the ability to express emotions through sound. These are life skills that go far beyond the violin itself — and they flourish naturally in a warm, supportive environment.
Flexible Lesson Formats
Musical learning also needs to fit into real life. That’s why I offer several lesson formats — from single sessions to lesson packs or full semester plans — and flexible durations: 30, 45 or 60 minutes.
Together, we find the schedule that works best for your family, your availability, and your learning rhythm.
Whether you prefer regular weekly lessons, occasional sessions, or a mix of both, you can build your own structure — without compromising on quality or progress.

Happy People have the last Word
My son has been taking violin lessons with NiQo for several years. NiQo knows how to motivate and challenge him. He truly enjoys practicing, thanks to the variety of pieces he works on. I highly recommend NiQo!
What I appreciate even more is how NiQo involves the whole family — he encourages my son to play with his siblings, even though they aren’t his students. At the end-of-semester concerts, they get to perform together, and it’s always a special moment. We’re really happy to share music as a family.
Anne-Sophie, mother of a violin student
My daughter really enjoys playing the violin and looks forward to every lesson with NiQo. It’s been wonderful to see her gain confidence and make real progress — she’s becoming less shy and more expressive through music.
We also truly appreciated NiQo’s kind attention, like the thoughtful gift of a music stand. Now even her little sister keeps asking for violin lessons too! As a parent, I’m happy to see such enthusiasm for music grow at home.
Prisca, mother of a violin student
As an adult learner with a busy job and kids at home, I really appreciate how NiQo respects my rhythm and adapts the lessons to my energy and availability. He’s incredibly flexible and always finds a way to make things work, even when life gets hectic.
What I value most is his encouraging and non-judgmental approach. He creates a space where I feel comfortable to try, make mistakes, and enjoy the process. The pieces we work on are also chosen with care — they match my tastes and keep me motivated. I never thought learning the violin as an adult could feel this fulfilling.
Arthur, music lover
NiQo has been teaching my son violin for several years now, and since day one, my son has loved going to class. That alone says a lot about NiQo’s teaching approach. He’s passionate, patient, and truly respectful of my son’s pace. He knows how to challenge him without overwhelming, and he always keeps the joy in learning. NiQo has a real gift for interacting with kids in a way that feels both supportive and inspiring. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a teacher who makes music feel exciting and fun, never a chore.
