Teaching in Singing
Emily teaches singing to all ages and abilities (starting from age 7). She can prepare pupils for graded examinations with Trinity College of Music or the ABRSM. She is keen to build a strong and healthy singing technique in all of her students, teaching breath control and support, intonation and healthy voice production. She also teaches music reading skills and basic theory to those students who do not yet have an understanding of these elements. More advanced singers may prefer to bring their own pre-learnt repertoire to lessons, but Emily mostly chooses and teaches songs to her students from scratch.
