Class Experience

Welcome to my Outschool music studio! Are you a beginning singer who wants to learn what your voice can do?  Are you looking to become a stronger singer so you can sing solos in choir or land a better part in your school show? Do want to learn how to become a better musician overall? These are all things I can help you with!

In our time together, we will develop a customized lesson plan to help you become a stronger singer while meeting your goals. For students new to voice lessons and performance, we will begin with the basics. If the student has experience - either through a choir or theater or from previous voice lessons - we will build on established foundations. During our first lesson, we will take time to discuss specific goals so that I can tailor make a lesson plan for you. A typical lesson includes vocal exercises to address technique, musicianship skills, such as music theory and musical interpretation, and repertoire work.

Students will be required to buy 2 books:
 *A music book which will be determined after our first meeting. Selection will be based on student interests and abilities. The books that I typically use can be purchased from Amazon. I may supplement this book with additional music, but my book recommendations are meant to be used for the long term.
 *A book from The Full Voice Workbook Series. The level will be determined after the first meeting with the student. This book covers musicianship skills such as reading notation, sight-singing, ear training, and music interpretation. 

I offer a 45 minute lesson option if your child would like more time. Typically, the longer lessons work best for kids ages 10+. If you aren't sure which lesson length is right for your child, please contact me.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about breath control, resonance, and how to produce a consistent tone. We will also cover aspects of ear-training and pitch stability, musicianship, music theory, and artistry.

Supply List
Students should come to their lesson with a pencil and paper to take notes. Students will be required to buy music books which will be determined after the first meeting. Books that I typically use can be found on Amazon. I do endeavor to use the books for as long as I can before moving to something different.

I will provide recordings to practice with or, where appropriate, help the student find backing tracks.  Students will need a way to play these tracks during their lesson. The playback device should not be the same device that they are taking their lesson on. Music will be mp3s or streamed from YouTube, so a phone or tablet is fine.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been singing professionally for over 20 years and have been teaching voice for 14 of them. My background is classical and musical theater, but I "cross train" between genres so that I can remain flexible to my student's needs.  My students range in age from 12 to adult. Some are brand new to singing, some work at a professional level, and most are somewhere between. I tailor lessons to meet their needs and goals, regardless of their starting place.
