Violin with Navid K.

I have been playing Santur (Hammer Dulcimer) for a little over 5 years. But I never felt confident enough to play in front of other people, and when I listened to my recordings I was never satisfied. I started to take lessons with Navid about 2 months ago. Since them I notice that my rhythm has improved, and my recordings sound more like music. I am also learning to play by ear. Navid is a great teacher, he is patient and his passion for music is contagious. He is among the very few Musicians who Master both Western and Persian Music! Watching him play challenging pieces of Paganini and Tchaikovsky, you can recognize a Music virtuoso! But how many genius classical violin players can take the audience with the sounds of Santur and Kamncheh to the breathtaking and exotic landscape of Persian music the way Navid does? It’s an honor for me that Navid is teaching me music! I highly recommend him. Ask him to teach you before he is too famous, and you have to wait in line to see him!

I played violin throughout my childhood but had not played for nearly ten years when I decided to pick it up again. Navid has helped me to slowly get better again. He is an amazingly perceptive and pedagogical teacher, focusing on pushing me forward from whatever level I am on at the time. He makes me perfect my technique and skills with tremendous patience. His passion for the violin is truly inspiring and he is by far the best violin teacher i have ever had! He is very knowledgable about the art of violin and I am happy to have the opportunity to take his classes. Even though I live in Sweden!!

Navid is my teacher for 6 months. I learned violin 10 years ago and I had 3 teachers. Navid is the best. He's patiently correcting my previous mistakes, teaching me how to use my ears for proper intonation, and transferring his love and appreciation for music. I highly recommend him as a musical instructor and teacher.
