Voice Lessons in West Hempstead, NY

Instruments: Voice

I start with the basics on any level of singer just to get a feel for their voice. For children I like to utilize a lot of imagery to go along with making sounds first and then worrying about the correctness later. Training the ear in singing is very important and also learning about the body in terms of singing is key. I have a set regimen of warm ups for both men and women than I alternate depending on the students age and skill level. Read More

I have taught private voice lessons to students of all ages and levels since 2015. I began teaching music in public schools in 2011, while still performing on the side in choirs, a cappella groups, and theatre ensembles. As a singer, I have made it a point to sing in as many styles as possible - I have performed in classical choirs, jazz ensembles, contemporary (pop) a cappella groups, and even a salsa orchestra.

I enjoy success stories. As a teacher, I enjoy seeing my students successful. I try to take very little credit, especially in public, because ultimately, it is the students who get out on stage and put themselves on the line. As a professional singer, I understand what they need to do to succeed and will support them the best I can in fulfilling their dreams. We will work together to define what is wanted, the dreams and ideas, then we will put them into reachable goals. Read More

Teaching students of all ages is an activity that brings me a lot of joy! I have traveled to India to teach students there, as well as taught in the US. I am currently studying at NYU learning as well as teaching! I feel strongly about the fact that you never stop learning! One thing that is extremely important is to practice consistently. Practice does not make perfect; practice makes permanent. Read More

I believe the ultimate goal of music education is to not create perfect musicians but to help our children, our neighbors, and our community have a greater understanding of the world around them. To help them see how they connect with music and each other. If a love for music is fostered as well then I am thrilled. But my main role is to teach all of my students and not simply cater towards the privileged, and talented. Read More

Each student is usually at a different level. For beginning students we focus on breathing, how to make sound that is free and easy, pitch, rhythm, tone and simple sight reading and songs. I make my own lesson plans according to each student's needs. If you already have a good basic knowledge of singing then we move on to improving tone, range, musical knowledge, dynamics and whatever help the student may need with high notes, low notes, fixing the gap between head and chest, belting, or any other vocal challenge they might be facing.
