I offer an educational program using the materials of the Royal Conservatory of Music.
This program involves learning graded song repertoire, sight-singing, and musicianship training.
Singers participate in performance evaluations. Music Theory is an advanced optional add-on.

It isn’t what you sing.
It’s how you approach your singing.
​
If you have any of these vocal issues, you need to establish a better technique.
Limited range
Vastly different qualities in the low, middle, and high notes
“Swiss Cheese” voice – notes missing, leaving holes in the middle of your range
Breaks in your voice
Too soft
Only able to sing loudly/shout in parts of your range
A sore throat after you sing a short time
You lose your voice after you sing a short time
You are physically exhausted after singing a short time
No projection
No resonance
No vibrato
No connection between tone, breath, and support
Facial pain or other muscular tension in your body
People can’t understand the words you’re singing
You mimic other singers but have no genuine voice of your own
