About Me

I'm a singing teacher and voice professional, based in Walthamstow!
I teach all ages, and my teaching style is tailored to the individual, prescribing technical exercises and repertoire suited to each individual's specific voice and interests.
As the voice in particular is such a personal mode of expression, I create a warm, safe and open environment for self-expression and development, encouraging students not only to achieve their goals but to surpass them.
Over the past few years, I have had seven of my singing students accepted onto the Royal Academy of Music's Junior Music Theatre programme, with one student offered a full scholarship based on merit. I have consistently successfully prepared students for GCSE and A Level performances and ABRSM exams, with the vast majority achieving the highest marks.
I am very committed to my own continuing professional development as a voice professional. I have taken many courses over the past few years from reputable sources such as Vocal Health Education, The Voice Study Centre and the Association of Teachers of Singing amongst others and have also taken courses in child protection and safeguarding.

Harriet
Singing, Piano, Theory and Music Aptitude Tutoring
I am a trained professional singer with a Bachelors degree in music from the University of Bristol. As well as singing, I play piano and conduct a professional choir. I'm based near Blackhorse Road station in Walthamstow and teach in my house. I teach all ages and all levels for singing and am happy either working towards grades or just singing for fun. I also teach music theory up to grade 5 to provide pupils with a strong foundation for progressing to the higher grades. I am able to provide socially distant lessons within my own home as well as online. For me the most important thing about music lessons is that they should be enjoyable, whether or not you are working towards an exam. Singing can improve confidence in young children, provide a space to let off some steam for adults or anything in between. I tweak my lesson style based on what you want to get out of the time. I have a 100% pass rate for all my pupils for both singing and theory.
