As a singing teacher (vocal coach/voice trainer), I have a passion for the sound of the human voice in all its wonderful variety. Every voice is unique, but every singer needs to master the same fundamental techniques in order to use the voice effectively and expressively. People come to me for lessons at all stages of their vocal development, from outright beginners to seasoned professionals. I always aim to combine technical improvements with musical outcomes, as I believe these two factors are indivisible in good voice training. Whilst I treat every student very much as an individual, I always aim to instill good habits of posture, breathing, support, tone, diction and sensible care of the voice.

Most of my teaching focuses on classical singing, European art song, opera, musicals, and choral music. I am experienced in preparing singers for examinations and professional auditions in a wide variety of styles and genres. A number of my former students have won places to study at UK conservatoires including The Royal College of Music, The Royal Northern College of Music, The Royal Welsh Academy of Music, and Birmingham Conservatoire. Others have won Oxbridge choral awards and cathedral choral scholarships.
