Singing Lessons
Absolutely fantastic. I have never considered singing lessons or learning to sign and I am 56 so have left it very late. Working with Karen is very pleasant and I always look forward to her enthusiasm and energy. Karen has already given me the confidence to sing to myself, sing to her during her tutorials and practice whenever I can. I wish I had done this years ago and had a teacher like Karen. Very very pleased. WELDONE KAREN More...

Thank you so much, it's a pleasure working with you :)
What do you love most about your job?
The lightbulb moments are wonderful, but the gradual progress as well. As I usually only see my students once a week, I can see the progress where they themselves often can't. It's so brilliant to watch them learn and develop their skills over time.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've always known I wanted to help people express their musicality one way or another. I find so much joy in music and singing in particular - I hope to enable people to feel that joy and have more confidence in themselves and their ability.
Why should our clients choose you?
I believe anyone can sing - yes, anyone! Whether you're naturally gifted or not, it's possible to learn the skills to make beautiful music and I want to help. I won't make you feel guilty if you aren't able to practise 100+ hours a week - singing lessons should be fun, and I know how busy and chaotic life can be. I love to help people see their potential and give them the confidence boost to achieve their goals, and I also love it when people invest in an hour a week, just for them, to simply sing for joy.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
All my sessions are given via Zoom - since starting my business in the middle of the pandemic, I've gained a lot of tools and experience to help me provide the best possible service over an internet connection so you don't have to leave the comfort of your own home to have your lessons. All you need is a device capable of using Zoom and a separate device for playing sing-along audio tracks - most of my students use a laptop or tablet for Zoom and a phone for audio tracks.
Singing Lessons
Lessons are up to 1 hour in length and generally weekly but there is plenty of room for flexibility here (e.g. younger students may do better with shorter lessons). I will take the time to understand your unique voice and goals so that we can work together as a team to get you where you want to be, whether that's preparing to take exams or belting your favourites in the shower!
