These sessions are very helpful, fun, effective, and confidence building. Each lesson, we'll begin with vocal exercises to increase your voice strength and flexibility and you can then sing a song of your choice, where you are coached to improve with professional vocal techniques. You will begin to notice immediate results and improve each lesson in confidence and ability. Your coach has worked with students of diverse musical styles and ability, including signed artists. Lessons are encouraging and rewarding with great results. All vocal exercises are shared with you via an App and you will have the option to record a vocal demo or EP with your chosen cover songs.

I have been teaching singers for over fifteen years and performing as a singer for much longer. I share competent skills and much experience as a Voice teacher and also as a professional vocalist where I am fortunate to have performed alongside great musicians before large audiences. This experience enables me to communicate and demonstrate techniques to students besides reassuring them and building strong motivation and confidence carefully and effectively. I also possess competent musicianship skills on piano, guitar and bass that reinforce my music theory classroom teaching and enable me to communicate various vocal techniques within the context of the music effectively. I am versatile in that I am able to teach singing with stylistic consideration to many genres including Pop, Musical Theatre, Rock, Soul and Classical music. I have taught one to one, small groups, classrooms and worked with large groups or choirs and I continue to enjoy teaching singers of all ages from children to adults and mature students.

I am pleased and fortunate to Vocal Tutor and Coach a number of past and present signed artistes in the music industry including Gabrielle Aplin (Parlaphone, Warner Bros), Chris Georgiadis (Turbowolf), Vanna Vee (Singer & Actress, Jusvibe Records. Moko Jumbie), Laura Doggett (Sony) Matt Sellors (Yes Sir Boss) Sonika McKie (Grenada R&B Artist) and Kala Chng (Red Pocket Records) among others.

I have completed a master’s degree in Voice Pedagogy (The Science and Art of Voices) and I believe that with my knowledge and experience truly helps singers to succeed!
