Singing lessons highlights
My teaching style is very patient, yet motivating. I aim to inspire my students to find their voice, by discovering what techniques work for them. I employ a flexible working style to adapt to individual needs, focusing on pitch perfection, building confidence and perfecting tone. By teaching you the basics of music theory and sheet music, you will end up having the skills to read classical notation, which will help you unendingly as you go through your vocal journey. I will also give you tools so you will be to be able to practise between our lessons (if you have the time) so you are able to see much more progress in finding your voice and honing your sound. My strength lies in creating engaging and confidence-boosting lessons that enhance vocal skills across various singing genres. From Musical Theatre to Jazz to Pop, let me know you are wanting to study and lets get started!

Emily and Sydni's recent singing lesson began with a review of music theory fundamentals, such as time signatures, note values, and key signatures. They then moved on to vocal warm-ups and agility exercises. Sydni dedicated time to practicing diaphragmatic breathing, facial massage, and specific vocal exercises aimed at improving her breath control and vocal resonance. The pair also worked on analyzing and practicing riffs from a Kesha Cole song, and Emily committed to sending Sydni a recording of a vocal exercise for her to practice further.

Emily guided a learner, a resident of White Eagle, through vocal techniques. Their work included box breathing, chest resonance exercises, and head voice activation, which they applied to Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man." The individual focused on rhythm, precision, and emotional conveyance in their singing. For homework, they will practice the chorus of "When I Was Your Man," specifically nailing the "It all just sounds like" interval. Their next lesson will involve starting work on Anthony Hamilton's "Charlene."
