Class Experience

In this one-on-one private class, we will:

(1) learn some new mindsets about singing; 
(2) exercise various muscles involved in speaking and singing, including the eyes; 
(3) learn some basic musicianship skills; 
(4) learn some easy ways to connect with ourselves and others through movement; and 
(5) learn a variety of songs chosen primarily by the learner.

In general, we will spend most of the time on repertoire, and we will learn primarily through demonstration, application, and practice.  All conceptual learning (rhythm, solfege, pitch matching, sight reading, expressive movements, etc.) will be applied to a song.  As children in the 8-13 age group can differ widely in their physical and mental development, I will adjust the classes accordingly to be more exercise-based or performance-based depending on the learner's personality and learner's goals.

Before each class, please let me know what song(s) you would like to sing, and please have a second device to play accompaniment tracks.

Please note that, in my experience, the 8-11 year-old learners who seem to thrive in this weekly ongoing class are children who love to sing all day long and seem to never have a shortage of songs that they are listening to or wanting to learn.  Since this is primarily a recreational class, if the child does not have a clear goal of wanting to perfect old songs or learn new songs each week, they will most likely get bored with lessons, which is very normal and not indicative of singing ability.  They will most likely thrive instead in a social group class or performance class, choir, or school/community musical.  If you are unsure about enrolling in weekly lessons, please consider a one-time lesson or consultation (request a time that works for you):

Another option is to try weekly lessons for about 4 weeks and then take intermittent lessons until your child is older and ready for more formal or professional training.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello!  I am a professional vocal coach with  25+ years of experience as a private voice teacher, audition coach, music director, and piano accompanist. I am based in New York City where I spend most of my time helping young aspiring athletes and artists pursue their musical dreams of performing on Broadway.  With the wonderful technology of Zoom, I hope to serve a wider range of young artists who may be interested in pursuing a career in the performing arts.

Although I work primarily with young professionals, I also hope to serve learners whose goals are not necessarily to sing professionally.  I hope to instill some of the love and joy of singing that I had growing up without the pressure of grades, perfection, and judges.  I am excited to meet new aspiring artists whose musical dreams may simply be to learn a new song, record a song for a family member, sing karaoke with friends, or jam out alone with Spotify.

I have tried to list different levels of classes to meet the needs of a variety of learners.  If you would like a customized class, please do not hesitate to contact me.
