- Do you have a personal message for students?

I am very passionate about singing and performing arts and this shows in the way I teach. I am a very easy going, good natured person who has a natural ability of making nervous students feel at ease. I believe very strongly in the use of visualisation techniques within the realm of singing and though this make seem a little unorthodox initially, my students soon learn to understand and work within that realm and I have seen great and very fast improvements in students singing and confidence.
