I'm a professional singing teacher, teaching from my studio in Hornsey, only a 5 minute walk from Turnpike Lane tube and less than 10 minute walk from Hornsey train station. I also travel to students' houses providing you have a keyboard/piano and are in reasonable cycling distance of N8, although do ask for a little extra to cover travel time.
​
I teach all styles, except classical, including pop, jazz, blues, indie, musical theatre, rock, folk, and electronica. I am friendly and encouraging, and will really work with you to help develop your individual voice.
​
I work with students of all ages and abilities - ranging from complete beginners to professional singers. Students of mine have gone on to study at some of the UK's top contemporary music and musical theatre colleges, and many perform professionally.
In general, lessons focus on a variety of exercises which will help build up range, tone, tuning, power, support and control, and then we put these into practice by singing a song or two. In addition to vocal and breathing techniques, I can also teach sight singing, improvising, aural, music theory, performance and audition technique.
​
My lessons are flexible and I try to adapt them to each student and their individual needs. I am also a working audio engineer, and am more than happy to record demo tracks in my studio during in-person lessons.
​
I have a full and up-to-date DBS (CRB) certificate and I enjoy teaching children as well as adults (although I find 30-45 mins works better for younger children).
