Singing Experience:
Teaching Experience: Currently teaching songs from High School Musical 2 to children age 5-13 at the Pop School and Stage Academy (PSSA) in Clapham, London. I am also teaching contemporary singing to 2 private adult pupils, who I teach from home. Previously, I taught at the Ripple Project in Edinburgh, teaching kids age 5-16, who were living with domestic violence, songs from musicals and pop songs for 6 months. I taught similar material and, as well as breathing and vocal techniques, at the Edinburgh Acting School Summer and Easter schools for 2 years.
Current positions held: Singing teacher at Pop School and Stage Academy, Clapham, London.
I am an encouraging and supportive teacher, and genuinely want the best for my pupils. I have an informal, fun and out going approach to teaching, which I believe helps my pupils to respond in a more productive manner. I have trained for many years, and love passing on my vast knowledge of contemporary singing, breathing and vocal techniques to other, whether they just want to sing confidently in the shower or they wish to become a professional singer.
