Voice Lessons in Lowell, MA

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Trumpet Trombone

For children my teaching style is very reward based, I love stickers so always give them one once they've mastered their song for the week and such. Lots of encouragement and positive feedback and working through the difficult things in a positive manner. For adults I will teach based on you! If you are really looking for a fun hobby with the music we will be more laid back and relaxed with it and can bounce around and learn all sorts of different things! Read More

They learn scales, intervals, vocal warm-ups, basic improvisation, repertoire (based upon requested style), different vocal techniques, arpeggiation and articulation exercises. For vocal technique I mostly use Bob Stoloff and Michelle Weir books, but I am always adding new material following today's industry. I also incorporate bacic production and arranging techniques, so my students have an opportunity to produce their songs and creat online profiles with their songs. Adults (18+) are learning based upon their previous musical background: during our first lesson we set our goals and we directly work towards them. Read More

I'm a tender, loving, and caring instructor who's passionate about sharing what I know about music with those I teach and mentor. In 2002, I graduated from Triton Regional School District with a Diploma where I studied long and hard the fundamentals of music as far as performance and writing. From 2002-2003, I decided to go to Northern Essex Community College to focus on General Academics before attending an institution that focused on music. Read More

For beginning students, who especially are children, I normally start from the fundamentals of voice technique in a very informal and fun way, so the students can enjoy the process of learning with ease and stress-free. When the student has a grasp of the basics, we start building a repertoire and working more specifically on performance skills. With adults, I generally try to understand first their goals, their specific needs, and guide my instruction accordingly to maintain the lesson engaging, interesting and fun, no matter their ability level.

For younger students who are just beginning, I would start with fun and entertaining warm ups that are designed to develop a strong foundation without relying on complicated terms. We would focus on discovering a joy and love for music and from there will develop a beginner's repertoire. For students who are a little older, I would focus on finding out what they hope to gain from voice lessons, and from there guide their learning in whatever direction they would like. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I am a passionate teacher who believes that everyone can make progress in their chosen instrument, including in singing. I meet you where you are and we work to make progress from there. Whatever style you want to sing, learning to use the instrument in a healthy way will make things easier and more satisfying. In my studio we learn by playing games, using imagery, using yoga to experience how the body feels and sometimes just good old fashioned counting. Read More
