As a dedicated music tutor, I'm Nathan Sivanithy, nurturing a love for music through violin lessons. With a Diploma in music education and over 2 years of experience, I specialize in teaching violin to kids and beginners. My expertise includes bow techniques, music theory, and violin repertoire. I focus on posture, scales, and ear training to ensure a strong foundation. I personalize each lesson to suit individual learning styles, making them engaging and fun. By incorporating traditional methods with modern techniques, I keep students motivated and eager to learn. My goal is to instill a lifelong passion for music in my students. Let's embark on a musical journey together, where creativity flourishes, and skills blossom. Let's make music!

Violin lessons overview

My teaching style blends classical foundation with expressive and hands-on learning, focusing on solo violin performance. I specialize in teaching classical, baroque, fiddle, and student violin to a diverse audience of 50+ students. For violin beginners and kids, I emphasize mastering technique through personalized guidance. I utilize tech tools like DAWs, ear training software, and virtual violin apps to enhance learning. I follow curricula such as A-Levels, AP Program, and IB to ensure a comprehensive educational experience. My approach ensures students develop pitch-perfect skills, technical proficiency, and a love for music through interactive and engaging lessons.

Austin, Chicago

Thanks to Nathan and sharp pedagogical methods, I felt well-prepared for my orchestral audition. He meticulously worked with me on complex bowing patterns and refined my shifts to higher notes. Beyond that, his focus on vibrato and his provided warm-ups have clearly made my musical tone better.

Encanto, Phoenix

Switching from plucking to bowing was initially challenging for our 8-year-old, but thanks to Nathan ’s engaging music lessons in Encanto, which include rhythm games and call-and-response melodies, he now stays focused and happy throughout each session.

The classes in Sandburg Village provided me with the essential technical skills I had previously lacked. Thanks to Nathan Glenidge instruction I now have a clearer understanding of bowing technique, posture and how to produce a richer sound.

My daughter gained solid posture and better technique early in his violin journey thanks to Nathan lessons in Apalachee Ridge. His method is both detailed and wonderfully supportive making a real difference in his progress.
