Reach Your Singing Goals
My approach to teaching is rooted in personalisation because no two voices are the same. During our lessons, I’ll take the time to understand your vocal style, strengths, and areas for improvement. We’ll work on a variety of elements, including pitch accuracy, vocal control, breath support, and developing your range.
What truly sets my lessons apart is my focus on building confidence as much as vocal technique. Singing isn’t just about hitting the right notes—it’s about telling a story and connecting with your audience. I’ll help you build the stage presence and self-assurance needed to share your voice with the world, whether you’re performing at a concert, a family event, or just for yourself.

Advice for New Students
Professional Singing Teacher in Ipswich
Hi, I’m a passionate singing teacher based here in Ipswich, and I’m dedicated to helping you uncover your true voice. Whether you’re completely new to singing or a seasoned performer looking to refine your skills, my lessons are tailored to suit your unique needs and goals. Each session takes place in my cozy home studio, creating a relaxed and welcoming environment where you can feel comfortable exploring music.
What to Expect as a Student
During our singing lessons, we’ll start by identifying your current vocal range and abilities so we can build a strong foundation from there. From classical pieces to rock vocals, I’ll help you select songs you love and that best suit your voice. We’ll also work on vocal techniques, including breathing exercises, finding your tone, and expanding your range. As a vocal coach, my aim isn’t just to teach you songs—you’ll also gain the tools to master your instrument and build your confidence as a performer.
Tailored Lessons Just for You
Every music student has a different story, and I make it my priority to create lessons that fit your style and aspirations. Maybe you want to join a band, perform solo, or simply sing as a hobby with friends. Whether you’re interested in songwriting, learning to play guitar tracks alongside your voice, or improving your performance for band sessions, I have the experience to guide you. I might also be able to incorporate bass guitar or acoustic guitar into lessons to help with rhythm and accompaniment.
Together, we’ll work in a practical and enjoyable way, whether you’re developing your skills as a classical soloist or pushing boundaries with creative rock vocals. My lessons are a blend of discipline, fun, and support—designed not just to teach you, but to inspire you.
Improve Your Vocal Technique
Breathing and Posture
One of the first techniques I focus on in our lessons is proper breathing and posture. Working with me as your vocal coach, you’ll learn how to control your breath effectively, which is a foundational skill. We’ll explore how correct posture not only improves your sound but also keeps your body relaxed during performances or band sessions. These principles will be integrated into everything we do—whether you’re a rock enthusiast or a classical music student preparing for solo work.
Vocal Warm-Ups and Range Development
A professional singer knows the importance of warming up the voice, and I’ll share effective exercises during our lessons to do just that. I’m here to guide you through expanding your vocal range safely, helping you hit those high notes without straining. Whether you want to nail your favourite rock pieces or create smooth melodies with guitar tracks, we’ll tailor these practices to meet your goals as a vocalist.
Pitch, Tone, and Dynamics
With every lesson, we’ll address pitch control, tone shaping, and dynamic range. It’s about more than just singing the right notes—it’s about how you play with volume and tone to bring depth and emotion to a song. Music students and band members alike can benefit from these skills as they give performances more impact and character.
Song Interpretation and Performance
I love helping my students connect deeply with their music. We’ll work together to interpret songs, focusing on how you can tell a story or evoke audience emotions with your voice. If you’re writing your own music or experimenting with songwriting, we can integrate that into lessons too. You’ll learn to add a personal touch to every song you sing, whether for solo work or with a full band.
Strengthening Your Musical Skills
Are you working with guitar tracks, songwriting, or accompaniment? I’ll help you blend your vocals with instruments naturally. Singing teachers often focus purely on voice, but I take pride in offering a broader perspective as a tutor who can guide you in a band setting or solo sessions. Each week, we’ll refine these skills so you can become a confident and versatile musician.
Every student is unique, and my goal as your singing teacher is to help you discover and develop your authentic voice. Whether you’re pushing creative limits with rock music or building a strong technical foundation, my lessons are crafted to empower and inspire you on your musical journey!
Learn the Singing Styles You Love
When it comes to singing lessons, I believe versatility is key. Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills, you’ll have the chance to explore a variety of genres and styles that truly resonate with you. My goal as your tutor is to create an environment where you can confidently experiment, discover, and grow as a performer.
Pop and Contemporary Hits
If you’ve been dreaming of singing along to today’s top hits or mastering classic pop tunes, we can focus on contemporary styles. These lessons are designed to help you capture dynamic vocal expressions and nail those catchy melodies. We’ll work on building strong breath control, developing vocal agility, and even exploring stage presence for performances.
Rock and Alternative Styles
Rock enthusiasts will find plenty of opportunities to hone their skills too. Together, we’ll tackle iconic anthems, explore grit and power in your voice, and build stamina to hit those high-energy notes. If alternative or indie styles are more your jam, we’ll focus on how to craft emotion and raw expression into your performances.
Jazz, Blues, and Soul
For those drawn to the rich history of jazz, blues, and soul, my lessons guide you through tone control, improvisation, and creating emotional depth. These genres are all about storytelling, and I’ll show you how to find your unique voice in these iconic styles. With personalised attention, you'll also learn how to add those soulful twists that make every performance memorable.
Musical Theatre and Classical Training
If you’re passionate about musical theatre, we’ll focus on storytelling through song and creating the vocal strength required for those dramatic, show-stopping numbers. For students interested in classical training, I offer lessons in vocal technique, range building, and precision, drawing from traditional methods that have shaped the world’s finest singers.
Customising Your Journey
Every voice is different, and one of the best parts of my job as your music teacher is customising lessons to fit your goals. Whether you want to explore a single genre or experiment across many, I’ll help you find out what makes your voice shine. With consistent practice and guidance, you’ll be ready to take the stage or simply sing for the joy of it.
