To begin with, I teach my students how to develop their own warm up method which includes breathing and stretching, vocalizations and good old fashioned solfege. You will learn to understand your own vocal mechanism and how it resonates, as well as how breath support works, and their effects on the singing voice. My teaching style is customized to the student.  I encourge working with scales, rhythms, improvisation, ear-training, also working with and learning songs. Depending on the needs of the student I then move into more advance techniques such as intonation, phrasing, and sight reading.
