I am a passionate and motivated instructor. I have years of experience teaching children and adults of all ages and musical backgrounds. I work hard for my students to find opportunities with their singing, and set goals for their personal growth. I have worked with everyone from beginners to advanced and professional singers. I have prepped my students for successful auditions with American Idol, America’s Got Talent, and The Voice. I give clear instruction, notes and homework every lesson, as well as supportive materials so you can practice at home. I would love to hear you sing!
My personal background with singing is in opera, classical and musical theatre. I have sung all over the world in various theaters and have accumulated a wealth of knowledge about singing technique but also know how about the business itself. With this experience I have been able to help my students navigate any technical issues with their singing as well as reach their personal goals of success through the industry. I have also helped countless kids get into colleges of their choice by coaching them through the application and audition process.
I start lessons with a quick interview so I can get an idea of what you want with your singing, not only technically I.e. range, projection, pitch etc, but also personal goals, being better at karaoke or sounding your best in a recording studio and everything in between. We then go over basic vocal exercises, the principles of singing, any tension I see encumbering your vocal production. The last half of the lesson we go through songs, either that you pick or are assigned. I will provide recordings of all the exercises we go through so you have a clear idea of how and what to practice at home.
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music and be successful! I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. I try and be an encouraging teacher while also providing constructive criticism so my studnet always feel like they’re growing in a safe environment.
