About Parham
Teaching the Most Effective and Fastest Methods of Violin Playing to All Age Groups by Virtuoso Soloist and Concert Violinist Parham Ahmadian (MMusic) With More Than 20 Years of playing Experience.
Playing Experience:
I have played violin for a total of 24 years. I have been a classical concert violinist and soloist with prominent orchestras worldwide, commencing my career as a solo violinist at the age of 14 (after 8 years of learning the violin). My performance repertoire encompasses Classical, Baroque, and Romantic compositions, with notable performances including the complete 24 Caprices of Paganini, Violin Concertos Nos. 1, 2, and 5, along with his virtuosic works such as “God Save the King,” “Nel cor piu non mi sento,” and others which are regarded as the most “technically difficult and virtuosic” works written for the violin . Additionally, I have performed mainstream violin concertos by renowned composers like Tchaikovsky, Winiawski, Brahms, Beethoven, Mozart, Bartók, Saint-Saëns, and others with various orchestras. I have a few recordings in my home country, Iran, however mostly focused on performing live concerts in my musical career. I have won 3 gold medals in Iranian and Russian violin competitions.

Teaching Experience:
I am a licensed and qualified teacher both in Australia and internationally (USA, Japan) with many m years of experience in teaching. I have a particular passion for teaching and have completed various international courses, participated in numerous masterclasses, and earned a Master of Music degree from the Curtis Institute in the United States, a highly esteemed music institution. I hold masterclasses in Japan for children aged 6-17, and hold a 5-yearly casual instructor role in United State’s Curtis Institute summer school (one of the most celebrated music schools in the world).
Teaching technique:
With over 20 years of experience teaching violin to students of all ages, from beginners to very advanced, and over 33 years of playing experience as a solo violinist, I have consistently delivered violin lessons using proven methods. I also regularly train my young violin students for local and international violin competitions, with some of them achieving gold or silver medals.
For years, I have used a combination of violin methods to teach my students, and this comes with the advantage of faster and more efficient learning. I also customise the teaching system to match the student’s needs. I have had great results with most of my students, with some performing in Advanced levels in as little as 3 years!
I also keep my rates low and affordable for most learners and believe music should be financially affordable and accessible to most eager violin learners.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Parham has been my teacher for quite some time, and he has an in-depth understanding of the instrument. He supplements my learning with many valuable resources, which has been especially helpful as I initially struggled to practice due to life commitments as an adult learner. I’d say that what I have learned from Parham in one year has been more impactful on my playing than all six years of playing before. Spending time correcting what was previously taught to me incorrectly has made a significant difference. I cannot speak highly enough of Parham.
My child has had lessons with Mr Ardestani for about 5 years. Having tried many other teachers and struggling to stay motivated, after a short time working with Parham she found practicing enjoyable and is an avid listener to classical music. We are grateful for her progress and continue to be amazed by what she achieved.
I have been a student of Mr Ardestani for about 13 years. His passion in teaching is absolutely unmatched. I felt the difference in my playing after few lessons and have been so happy with my progress. I started as an Adult beginner, but just finished playing Beethoven violin concerto with Parham, which I found so rewarding. I have some my students now but also attend lessons with Parham weekly to improve on my technique.
