Bio

Hi – Thanks For Visiting My Page

My Name is Tomislav Nikolic. I have been a private violin teacher for over 24 years. 

I picked up my first violin at age 9 and quickly fell in love with the instrument. In 1986 I graduated with a Masters in Musical Arts from the Academy of Arts in Novi Sad, Serbia and quickly took a position with an orchestra broadcasting on the radio.

When I arrived in New Zealand in 1995, I played among the first violins in the Auckland Philharmonic Orchestra for 20 years and taught violin lessons part-time around my orchestral duties.

While I’m formally trained in a traditional classical style, I pride myself on being a versatile player, and I encourage versatility in my students. I’m able to teach in the classical, jazz and improvisation styles.

I can provide you or your child with:

• Step-by-step guidance through all formal grading examinations
• Competition preparation
• Solo performance preparation

Teaching Info

I implement techniques from various systems of teaching in my violin lessons. These include flavours from the Sevcik, Flesch and Suzuki methods. Applying aspects of these styles will enable my students to make quick progress whilst enjoying their studies.
