Voice Lessons in Northborough, MA

Instruments: Voice

I love teaching because I get to help students not only deepen their relationship with music but also with themselves and their own vocal abilities. I always start with a voice consultation where we examine your current vocal abilities and strengths, talk about your relationship with your voice as an instrument, and dive deep into your musical goals. We will talk about which vocal techniques and exercises will be right for you and also pick out some repertoire that represents you. Read More

I believe technique is important to become a successful singer, but feeling relaxed and comfortable while learning is just as important. Read More

I would say my second best quality as a teacher is being able to teach the theory behind the musical they are learning. I mainly teach voice, guitar, and piano, but through those styles, I also teach jazz guitar, vocal improvisation, classical and jazz theory, ear training, vocal technique, and composition  and arranging. I want to be able to cover as many areas of music that a student is interested in. Read More

Most of my students have greatly enjoyed the coloring pages and activities and I have found them to be very effective. Read More
