About Nicholas
My aim is to inspire young minds to become the best musician they can be. I personally started playing the piano at a young age of five and over the years, I accumulated extensive experience in performance, as well as achieving top marks in graded examinations (theory & practical). In my performance journey, I have won numerous awards, both locally and internationally. Most recently, I won the 2021 Kault Prize, awarded by the VMTA (Victorian Music Teachers' Association) & 2022 Ann & Chris Krans Music Award. Previous awards include: First Prize in the 2019 Bernstein National Piano Competition, as well as prizes in 2019 Musical Society of Victoria’s Nehama Patkin Memorial Award, 2019 & 2021 Eisteddfod by the Bay The Reg Lil Lewis Memorial Romantic Era and 2020 Balwyn High School’s Music Scholarship, 2017 Waverley Music Eisteddfod, 2016 Melbourne International Music Competition, 2018 Best Haydn Performance, Music of The 19th Century, 2019 Best Mozart Performance, 2020 Best Debussy Performance in the Great Composers Competition. In 2021, I was invited to perform live on The Talent 3MBS radio (103.5FM). At the international front, I performed at the Carnegie Hall, New York in 2018 for the American Protégé Winners’ Recital. While under the tutelage of maestro Mr. Glenn Riddle, a leading pedagogue, I was awarded the Associate in Music, Australia (AMusA ~ Distinction) and Licentiate in Music, Australia (LMusA) at a young age of 15 and 16 respectively. And I have also attended various masterclasses by Dr. Kenji Fujimura, Professor Max Cooke, Richard Chamberlain, Darryl Coote and Elizabeth Mitchell. I am a versatile teacher, fun, patient, high-spirited and very adaptable to suit each student's needs and ability, nurturing and honing their skills for performance to their best ability. Having studied both streams, I specialize in teaching both AMEB and ABRSM syllabus and I understand the mindset of young kids starting on their piano journey, to young adults/teenagers, wanting to perform at a competitive level. In the early years of honing my singing talent and skills, I was handpicked to join as the chorister with National Boys’ Choir of Australia (NBCA). Follow-on, under the guidance of Melanie White, I won 2nd Prize at the 2019 Music Society of Victoria’s Ron McNicol Vocal Award (age 18 & under) as well as the Eisteddfod By The Bay (2019 & 2017), 1st Prize at 2018 Balwyn High School Music Scholarship and 3rd Prize at the 2016 Junior Vocal Melbourne International Music Competition at Deakin Edge. Broadening my skills and experience, I have also attended voice lessons with Greg Mills, a musical director who has produced artists like Guy Sebastian, Marina Prior, The Young Divas & Wendy Matthews. Continuing my musical journey, I am studying double degree (Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Science) at Monash University. I would like to “give back” my knowledge and skills to the younger generation and community. I have shared one of my performance videos below ~ enjoy :)

I am a strong believer in steady progression, starting from strong techniques and fundamentals. And of course, music lessons should be fun, happy and enriching.
I adopt a holistic approach in teaching music. All my lessons are tailored for the child/individual, learning at their comfortable pace, so as to gain confidence, self development and personal growth.
With over 13 years of experience and being a performer myself, I aim to coach and inculcate in my students an attitude of elegant performance with strong techniques and share the music whole-heartedly and passionately.
As seen in my credentials and accolades, I am a highly-qualified piano teacher, patient, high-spirited and hold Working With Children Check.
My studio is quiet and cosy. Lessons are conducted on a grand piano Yamaha C3, hence all students gain early exposure to a quality instrument, which is essential for developing strong techniques.
Having personally studied through both streams, I specialise in teaching both AMEB and ABRSM syllabus to students of varying ages and musical background.
I am a versatile teacher and very adaptable to suit each student's needs and ability.
Lessons range from 30 minutes to an hour. (Rate:A$70/hour)
* First Lesson is FREE (30min) *
In my singing performance journey, I have won many awards and accolades. And I also love the challenge to continuously upskill with graded exams (currently AMEB Singing Repertoire Grade 5)
Hence, I am qualified and fluent in voice coaching ~ pop music, classical, jazz, RnB and contemporary styles ~ teaching pitch, key, vibrato from beginners to advanced.
Lessons focus on the fundamentals of voice and breathing techniques to uncover your natural singing voice, mastering voice control, power and strength.
I will help build on your strengths, fill in the gaps and work on overcoming weaknesses at your own pace. With every lesson, you will improve and experience gradual breakthroughs.
Having studied and highly skilled in both piano and singing performance, lessons can also be combined as "voice with piano/keys" or "song-writing with piano/keys".
My goal is to grow a community of aspiring musicians that share the passion of learning and performing music.
"Music brings people together"
"A student is more likely motivated to practice, when they finish their lessons feeling capable and empowered".

Best guy in the world!
My son has learned piano from him and I have found he is kind, friendly and patient with kids. He also has a great attitude and highly skilled in teaching the piano. He is a very gifted musician has had vast musical experiences since he was very young. I always feel very privileged to have Nicholas as my son's piano teacher.
My daughter looks forward to her singing lessons with Nicholas. He is an easy-going teacher with a warm personality. His lessons are vibrant, well structured and students get to learn from the sharing of his own singing experiences. This is especially encouraging for a shy beginner. My daughter's singing performance has gradually improved and she is more confident in using her natural voice.
Nicholas has an unassuming and friendly demeanor that makes him a really approachable teacher. He's kind and patient while also firm when needs be.
My daughter just started piano lessons and I am so happy to have Nicholas teaching her, he is a versatile teacher and patient with children. She loves coming for lessons, as it’s always a fun and bubbly class.
So glad that we have Nicholas to teach our grandchild, adapting to his needs and skills ability as a beginner in piano lessons. His lessons are well-prepared, fun and lively. Highly recommend Nicholas to anyone seeking a great piano teacher.
