Voice Lessons in Yonkers, NY

Instruments: Voice

As I said before, every student is complitely different, and is important to understand what they need from the very first time, so you can be an inspiration for them and not a waste of time. The voice technique is so important, basic, for a profesional singer, but is not the only thing you need to become a good musician/singer. Is so important to find your personality as an artist, your soul, and that is the hardest thing for a voice teacher, but when you have a student who developes that thanks to you, is the best feeling in the world.

They are equally important. When voice students can sing with good breath support, they can sing any songs they like. I give many good exercises to improve their support without using the voice, so they can do those simple exercises at anytime. Learning singing is the best way to learn about ourselves, because the instrument is inside our bodies. How we feel physically and mentally will show in our singing. Read More

I do believe in the fundamentals of music and ultimately, no matter what you hear, learning music is not re-inventing the wheel. There is technique, reading music and understanding the basics of how the particular instrument works. I like the Essential Elements for Guitar or bass for guitarists and bassists and Alfred's Piano method books. Ted Reed's Guide to Syncopation is a good drum book. Ultimately I like to get the know the student as much as I can as soon as I can so I can help them get to what they want as soon as possible with a few laughs along the way. Read More

Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! Read More

My teaching experience dates back to the mid 2000's when I began teaching children's musical theater classes for various organisations, such as Vogue Entertainment, Barking Gecko Theatre Company, The Song Room and Majkidz, in my hometown of Perth, Western Australia. I also began teaching private lessons to 8-16 year olds, focusing mainly on musical theater and classical repertoire. As a cabaret performer, I also have experience singing pop, folk and jazz repertoire, so am also comfortable teaching these styles. Read More

As a teacher I try to create an environment that is supportive, nurturing, safe, and I always want my students to have a pleasant time learning. Im dedicated, passionate about music, about teaching, about sharing and learning. I believe that the role of a teacher is to give to the students the tolls for them to become their own teachers, meaning, trusting their ears, their sensations, their instincts, and knowing how to use these tolls.

With my new beginning students, who don’t have much experience, we start with the fundementals - singing posture, breathing, basic warm ups and their importance, music theory, and simple repertoire. For my more intermediate, advanced students, I will check to see where your fundementals are, and help you blossom from there. My intermediate to advance students will continue to work on breathing, breath control, warm ups, music therory, and will be assigned to contrasting songs at a time. Read More
