About Nikki Warrington – Singing Teacher York
Are you wanting to start lessons and don’t know how to find the right teacher?
Are your current lessons just not the right fit for you?
Do you feel unmotivated to practice?
(I have been there!)
Do you want to achieve more, perform more consistently and achieve your goals?
Do you already sing in a choir or play with an ensemble and want to improve your skills?
Did you take music lessons in school and would love to return to it or maybe it is something you always wanted to do but never had the opportunity?
I am Nikki and I teach people like you who want to achieve their goals and turn your musical dreams into reality.
It probably doesn’t shock you, that I’d love you to love music as much as I do.
Like most people, my journey hasn’t always been easy, I was painfully shy as a young child and struggled with confidence. My parents found it difficult with no real musical knowledge to find a teacher that was the right fit for me, a person who could indeed bring the best out of me and give me the confidence and skills to achieve my goals.
I know and understand that the right lessons, with the right teacher, can open the door to a whole range of musical experiences, hours of fun and a lifetime of fulfillment.

Here are the links to my policies:
I will usually start by hearing you sing so I can get an understanding of your voice, current ability and starting point. I will also ask you some questions about your goals, why you want to start singing lessons, how much time you have to practise and the sort of music you enjoy or would like to explore.
You can of course ask me any questions you’d like to ask too.
Don’t worry about being nervous. I know it can feel strange singing in front of somebody new, but I am friendly and welcoming, and I have heard many people sing over the years. My aim is to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel as comfortable as possible.
Lessons take place during most weeks of the year. I have a complete shutdown at Christmas, two weeks off during the summer and I am often performing on Bank Holiday Mondays.
Dates when I am not teaching are shared in advance and displayed on my website.
I invoice monthly in arrears, and payment is by bank transfer or cash only.
Payment for ad hoc lessons is expected on the day of the lesson, by bank transfer or cash.
I teach private singing lessons at Christian Science Church, Kilburn Road, York on Thursday and Friday.
I also teach from my Longwood home studio in Huddersfield on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday.
Yes. My main focus is face-to-face singing lessons at my York teaching venue and Longwood studio, but online lessons are also available when needed.
Online lessons can be particularly useful during bad weather, illness or when travelling to a lesson is temporarily difficult. I have invested in good quality equipment to make online tuition a positive and straightforward experience.
I currently teach students from the ages of 5 through to 85 and everything in between. Many adults had music lessons at school but stopped when they started their careers and families, while others begin singing for the first time in their 40s, 50s and beyond. There is no upper age limit to enjoying singing and developing your voice.
For children, around age 5 is usually a suitable starting point for singing lessons, although some children benefit from waiting until they are a little older.
If your child can concentrate for 30 minutes and enjoys music, I am happy to discuss whether singing lessons would be suitable for them.
Yes. I have had a lot of experience teaching people with dyslexia, dyscalculia, physical differences and those on the autistic spectrum. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss this further.
Yes, if you feel more comfortable having someone accompany you, please let me know.
At my Longwood studio, I have a sofa for parents or family members, along with Wi-Fi and magazines. If you are attending lessons at my York teaching venue, please check with me beforehand about bringing somebody along.
I would ask that you avoid bringing the whole family, particularly younger children who might disrupt the lesson.
Yes. Each year I arrange a pupils’ concert at a local church and an informal adults-only performance with drinks and snacks at my Longwood studio. You are welcome to perform or simply come along and watch. There is no pressure to perform if you don’t want to.
Many students also enter local music competitions, which can be a great way to receive feedback and gain experience, although this is completely optional.
I also have contacts for orchestras, bands, ensembles and choirs if you would like to become involved in making music with a group.
Yes, of course. People often make excellent progress when they are enthusiastic about the music they are learning. All suggestions are very welcome.
