Classical singing for beginners, intermediate students

I have had the opportunities to teach adult and children students throughout these few years, in my home country and here in the Netherlands. While I have always been positive and active in searching solutions with the students, I often expect students to be curious and persistent in the process, so as to have an optimal progress. For adult students, the lesson will be 60 minutes; while for children, it will be around 30 minutes. For beginning/ intermediate amateur singers that have basic knowledge of reading music.

About myself: graduated cum laude in 2020 at Codarts Rotterdam from the Master of Music (Classical Singing. Active performer in the field as concert soloist and choir singer. Recent award winner at an international singing competition in Germany.

Singing lessons with an italian lyric-coloratura soprano. From opera to modern and pop. (Masters degree in singing with honours, cum Laude)
My classes are different depending on your level and age. With children from 7 to 12, we start by doing easy vocalization and start training the ear with intonation, we then have fun singing your favorite songs. With teenagers, I also start with some vocalization, a little more elaborate. Depending on the student's capabilities, we start establishing a comfortable range for them and then proceed to singing. For my older students ideally, I divide our lesson into 2 sections. We work on respiration and how the diaphragm works. We do scales and arpeggios and work on intonation. We then proceed to singing and putting into practice our technique. Some students might need more technique before they actually sing, I like to take things slowly and make sure the student feels confident and comfortable singing. I teach children, teenagers, and adults, from beginners to more advanced. Classical training enables you to sing in any kind of way, so don’t hesitate and let’s sing!

Vocal lessons - Learn how to sing and how to use your voice in everyday life
You are using your voice everyday. Speaking all day at work, or with your friends at the party, sometimes getting your voice tired. This problem is common for the people, who speak with their vocal chords making their throat and neck muscles tight. The right way of using your voice and your vocal chords is going to make your life so much easier even if you don't sing. The singing requires many skills from using your resonators and vocal chords, to a correct breathing using diaphragm. In this course I'm going to teach all levels how to use your voice not only for singing, but also to make your everyday life better and easier.
