I began my teaching career after completing an open college network certificate in music facilitation in 2001. I worked for the community music service for the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, an award-winning service, as their only vocal coach for the next 19 years. I taught in many local schools and even taught Jessie from Little Mix before she found fame on X Factor. Music and singing are my passion and I enjoy passing on my experience of performing onto my students.

I Offer Singing Lessons In a Wide Range of Genres and Styles
Exploring Different Genres
Learning to sing opens up a world of musical genres, each with its own unique set of techniques and styles. In my private singing lessons here in Southampton, I guide you through a variety of genres to help you find your unique voice and expand your singing abilities.
Pop Music
Pop music is hugely popular among my students in their singing lessons. Its catchy melodies and relatable lyrics make it an enjoyable genre to learn. When teaching pop, I focus on improving vocal range and refining pitch accuracy. During your first singing lesson, we'll explore how to hold notes securely and project your voice efficiently. This genre is great for individual and performance skills.
Classical and Opera
For those interested in Classical and Opera, my lessons delve into breath control and vocal power. These genres require precise technique and a strong foundation in music theory, which we build upon in each session. I teach advanced singers how to master these demanding styles using tried-and-true techniques that ensure vocal safety and longevity.
Jazz and Blues
Jazz and Blues introduce students to improvisation and soulful expression. These genres emphasise emotional delivery and unique phrasing. In our dedicated teaching rooms, we work on jazz scales, rhythm, and timing, helping you to feel comfortable with the spontaneous nature of these styles.
Rock and Metal
Rock and Metal singing are all about attitude and energy. From grit to growl, I teach techniques to safely add texture to your voice without strain. We also work on stage presence and performance skills that are essential for these high-energy genres. Even if you start as a beginner, my methods will help you build strength and stamina.
Musical Theatre
Musical Theatre combines singing with acting, demanding clarity, and expression. My singing lessons cover everything from enunciation to dynamic control, preparing you for powerful performances. Learning this genre involves a mix of vocal exercises and acting techniques, ensuring you can bring characters to life on stage.
Contemporary R&B
R&B requires smooth phrasing and emotional depth. I teach my students to navigate intricate runs and melismas, honing their agility and control. In our singing tuition, we break down complex vocal passages into manageable parts, making even the most challenging songs accessible.

How My Singing Lessons Help You Master Techniques
As an experienced vocal coach, I am dedicated to helping my students develop a wide range of singing techniques. Whether you are a beginner looking to enhance your singing skills or an advanced student aiming to perfect your craft, my singing lessons in Southampton are tailored to meet your needs and goals.
Vocal Warm Ups
In every lesson here at Singing Lessons Southampton, we begin with vocal warm-ups to prepare your voice for singing. These exercises are crucial in preventing strain and injury, ensuring that you can sing safely and effectively. My warm-up routines are designed to gradually increase in difficulty, making them suitable for singers of all levels.
Extending Vocal Range
One of the key areas I focus on is extending your vocal range. Through targeted exercises and vocal workouts for singers, I help you reach higher notes with ease and develop a stronger lower register. We work on both your chest voice and head voice, blending them seamlessly for a smooth transition across your range.
Breath Support
Proper breath support is fundamental to good singing technique. In our lessons, we delve into breath control exercises that enable you to sustain notes, improve your stamina, and deliver powerful performances. Understanding diaphragmatic breathing and learning how to use your breath efficiently can make a significant difference in your vocal abilities.
Improving Posture
Good posture is essential for optimal vocal performance. I teach my students the importance of aligning the body correctly to allow for better breath control and vocal projection. Simple adjustments in your posture can lead to noticeable improvements in your voice.
Vibrato and Dynamics
Mastering vibrato and dynamics adds depth and emotion to your singing. I guide you through techniques to develop a natural and controlled vibrato, as well as how to vary your dynamics for expressive singing. These skills are vital for bringing your music to life and connecting with your audience.
