private | group | bands
Lauren does private lessons, group lessons, online lessons, and even coaches bands who want to work together in a more cohesive way.
I'm a qualified vocal coach, and have also been teaching beginner-intermediate piano for ten years, teaching privately as I'm self employed. I teach all ages - my youngest student being 5 and my oldest to date is 81. I am a full time musician too - jazz singer, and singer-songwriter with 2 original albums under my belt (so far)! I love teaching and performing, so I'm very lucky they go hand in hand!
I can do a deal if you buy more than one lesson at a time!
