Voice Lessons in Lancaster, CA

Instruments: Piano Voice

It can seem that I demand a lot from the beginning, for example, rhythm, counting, hand position, and so on. But these are the basics that some teachers might forget but I always pay attention to it and remind my students so they get used to it and eventually do it automatically. I really give them a good base and knowledge that they can use their entire life. With that, in the future, they will be able to learn any songs by themselves. Read More

I encourage students to be open and ask questions during their lessons. I want to get a clear picture of every student's learning style and interests to help them achieve their goals. I also encourage students to participate in bi-annual recitals which I put on in partnership with other music teachers in Santa Clarita, as performance is an excellent motivator for practice and consistency with lessons. I make it a point to stick with a regular lesson schedule, as consistent attendance is an extremely important factor in progress. Read More

I like for my students to choose a song of their liking because the point of singing is to sing songs that bring us pleasure and make us feel good. A typical lesson begins with warm-ups; which helps to run inventory on the voice to see if its healthy and using proper technique. After warm-ups, we dive into the repertoire or songs we are working on. Well start by going over the words of the song, how to pronounce them, their emotional meaning, and your opinion on them.

I gear my methods for both voice and piano to the level and personality of the student I'm working with. If the student is very young, I don't get too technical, and just try to instill a love of music and a sense of fun into the lessons. As they get older, I bring in more technical elements, especially focusing on breathing with singers. With younger pianists, I've used a variety of instruction booklets and will gear my teaching to their interests, often teaching chords so that they can look at a piece and improvise an accompaniment.
