Giacomo - Get to know your vocal coach
Hi! I'm Giacomo Favitta, your online singing tutor. With over 4 years of teaching experience and a Bachelor's degree in music, I help students of all levels discover, develop, and trust their own voice. I specialize in a wide range of styles, including Metal, Folk, Country, Pop, Rock, Jazz, Blues, and Movie singing, so whatever music moves you, we can work on it together. My lessons are fully personalized and built around your goals. We'll focus on the fundamentals that make a real difference: breath control, posture, ear training, harmony, improvisation, melody, pitch accuracy, vocal warm-ups, and music theory. I also help singers expand their range, strengthen their tone, protect their voice, and perform with more confidence and genuine emotion. Whether you're a complete beginner taking your very first steps, an intermediate singer refining your technique, or an adult finally pursuing a lifelong passion, I'll tailor each lesson to suit your needs and your learning pace. My approach is patient, encouraging, supportive, and practical, so you'll notice real, steady progress from the very first session. Let's hit those notes together and unlock your full vocal potential!
