Holistic approach to teaching multi instrumentalist-vocalist. Lakehead Graduate HBA Music, HBA Philosophy and HBSW Social Work.

Hello, My name is Anneke Dawson. I am a Canadian musician and social worker. I value helping clients and students in achieving their mental health and music goals. I listen to a large variety of music. I have a diverse ear. I have experience singing in choirs, teaching all ages, from a trauma informed and anti oppressive approach. I connect feelings with sound. I have a Bachelors in Music studies along with a degree in Social Work. I have 5+ years teaching music specifically in vocal, guitar and piano study. I have a extensive back ground in teaching how to apply theory to singing and instruments. In addition I have been a social worker for 6+ years and can be a strong support for self esteem, confidence and discipline. I have previous trauma informed training. i know how singing can be empowering and enjoy teaching the skill. I have a strong interest in classical, rock and metal music. I focus on ear training, theory, technique and how the brain and vocals connect. I am open to exploring teaching both vocals, piano and guitar. If you need support connecting your vocal talent with a instrument I can be supportive. Let's build your vision and hit the right notes together and conquer your dreams together! Hope to see you soon!
