My method varies greatly depending on the student. I don't use method books with voice students, since the voice is so personal. I don't believe there's any such thing as a "one size fits all" method--lessons should be designed to meet the needs of the individual. I know that most voice teachers wont teach kids younger than 12 or 13, and I also know that many parents are probably (rightly) suspicious of the teachers who do, for fear that theyll hurt kids' young voices.

My Teaching Style Nothing is more rewarding to me than watching a student develop a genuine passion for music. I believe that every student should progress at their own pace, and I support this by setting clear, realistic goals during each lesson. Recognizing and celebrating each accomplishmentno matter how smallhelps build confidence and motivates students to continue learning and improving. I take the time to understand what inspires each student, which allows me to personalize my teaching approach to suit their individual needs, interests, and learning styles. Read More
