Vocal Insight™

I am highly passionate about the voice and the methods used in which to teach and inform about the voice. As a genuinely skilled and experienced singer myself, I am able to teach basic singing lessons which incorporate craft and artistry, pitch range, vocal register and intonation improvement, alongside  performance and vocal delivery technique. 

 

On a more advanced level, the voice sessions incorporate a useful and interesting insight into the vocal anatomy and physiology of the vocal mechanism, and presents how the voice operates phonetically as a human instrument through Speaking (Projection) and singing.

 

Vocal Insight offers an in-depth and rather holistic insight into using the embodied voice (with support from Estill theory and other approaches) and allows one to draw out their vocal strengths and weaknesses and whilst improving them via efficient exercises and knowledge. Although the sole focus is based on the one's voice, the aim is to also bring out the potential of one's singing voice, and therefore gain confidence in using it in a public setting. 

 

Each session is carely tailored according to the students's needs and all styles/genres are covered which include: Pop/Soul/Jazz/ Rock, Ballad/Opera/Choral/ Speech.
I work as a very patient and understanding singing teacher and voice coach, and my aim is to help any aspiring individual with an interest in the voice realise their great potential, the only requirement is patience, focus and determination.
Alongside singing lessons and voice coaching, Vocal Insight also specialises in  Song Writing tuition and performance technique.

 

Much focus is put into attention, detail and artistic expression.

As an experienced and professional Singer Songwriter and singing teacher, my work ethos is based on a friendly, efficient and patient approach.

 

Besides music, I also work as a freelance/ peripatetic singing teacher/ Music teacher.

The Voice sessions are conducted with use of a piano as an instrumental aid. The main purpose is to provide an effective and pleasant voice coaching service and to also inform students clients about vocal artistry and health.

 

Vocal Insight™ is available to all individuals who aim to improve their voices in various settings.

The voice sessions have enabled myself, as the teacher, to concentrate on the client's vocal strengths and weaknesses. This would also encompass delivering vital information regarding their vocal health and delivery. I have worked clients from different cultural backgrounds who have encountered problems with speech, language and vocal delivery. My teaching method comprises simple and safe vocal exercises accompanied with music, in order to encourage clients and students to improve their voice quality and register along with the delivery of their vocal tone.

I teach clients and students on a private one to one basis. My teaching method is based on my own experience as a singer and also incorporates the Estill Voice Training System.

As a musician and singer, I have always possessed a great passion for the voice and the various forms of voice communication and speech related topics. I would like to explore and build upon my knowledge and experience and believe that this would serve as  a valuable contribution towards voice coaching and teaching.
I am in favour of combining the effective methods used in speech and language therapy with Singing in order to implement and produce an efficient and creative teaching strategy.

I aim to utilise my creative skills and artistic abilities to help others to reach their maximum potential creatively and by using the voice as a creative outlet.

I follow a holistic approach to singing, performing and creating music, and vocal health operates as an imperative element to my teaching method.
