Watch me singing live here
I have 5 years of experience in teaching singing to people from a wide variety of backgrounds and ability levels. Having performed professionally for 14 years, at venues including large theatres and festivals (such as Beach Break Live), I understand the many techniques that go into engaging a live audience, large or small. I really enjoy introducing these methods to budding performers, and watching them increasingly overwhelm audiences with their talents. I have had years of private tutoring in singing performance and theory myself, as well as a degree in theatre, specialising in audience studies.
My love of singing developed at the tricky age of 13, when belting out songs enabled me to release the struggles I had been keeping to myself. Because of this, some of my favourite work has been the teaching of complete beginners, and those who have difficulties with confidence. I want to offer you the opportunity to be guided by a tutor who is patient, non-judgemental and entirely supportive of your journey.
