TEACHING
I don't sing because I'm happy,
I'm happy because I sing!
Singing Ethos
My belief is that everyone can learn to sing when taught holistically and can experience the satisfaction of discovering the unique qualities of their individual voice. I strongly believe in the cathartic power of singing and that it can support wellbeing and authentic personal expression.
How I Teach
I teach with a strong emphasis on building holistic, detailed technique, striving to always put the individual at the centre by finding unique ways to make this accessible and fun. For me, teaching is all about deep listening, not only listening intently to the student and their voice but teaching them how to ‘listen’ to their body and develop their own kinaesthetic awareness. From the first lessons therefore, students learn about the body and the way the voice works. I address this through exercises and breathing techniques, as well as songs appropriate to age and stage. I can also guide students through the ABRSM grades and diplomas. I aim to create a fun, nurturing environment where learning and confidence can be optimised.
Experience
I bring eight years of private teaching experience, complemented by pedagogical training undertaken throughout my degree and further advanced through postgraduate studies in Vocal Pedagogy (2025), specialising in vocal health within singing teaching.
I continue my own operatic training with highly respected and accomplished teachers and therefore everything I teach my own students is continually informed by the high class tuition I receive. This ensures that my teaching is always current and reflects the ever evolving industry standards for vocal tuition.
Where?
I teach online via Skype and/or at home in Greenwich, just a 5 minute walk from Maze Hill station or a 10 minute walk from Cutty Sark DLR.
