Emily Shaull - Singing tutor

Unleash Your Voice with a Seasoned Singing Tutor! 5+ Years of Experience Providing Engaging, Creative, and Supportive Lessons to 10+ Students. Discover Your Unique Style and Flourish in Music!

Hello, fellow musician! My name is Emily Shaull, and I would love to teach you! I am a caring, creative, and supportive Music tutor who will challenge you to take your musical skills to the next level! I've always loved to sing. My musical journey began at a very young age when I began taking piano lessons with my grandmother. As I grew, I became increasingly involved with music through a number of various avenues-- musical theater, choir, leading musical and religious events, private piano and voice lessons, marching band, and symphonic band! One of my highlights of my younger years was to tour professionally in parts of Europe. I was able to work with some incredible instructors. They are a huge part of why I chose to go into the Music field. So why else did I choose to teach music? 1. People. I love people! One of my passions is to invest into others and healthily challenge them to grow in their giftings. 2. Let's face it--I'm a huge music theory nerd. I was actually a Teacher's Assistant during college for Music Theory! 3. Music is an ART. It is one that sets my heart on fire and makes me dance inside. I love how music can show such deep expression and tell intricate stories to its listeners. 4. Singing is like breathing to me. It is something I truly love. I also am in awe of how our amazing bodies can make such a wide breadth of beautiful sounds! We ourselves are instruments. So there you have it! Music is basically my life. Would you like me to help you to make it an even more wonderful part of yours as well? (:
