FAQs

Here are a collection of my most frequently asked questions. You may find the answer you are looking for. If not, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.

What is the best time of day to have a lesson?

It is a myth that you sing better later in the day but you may find you are more hydrated later on, so the best time of day is the time that you are most relaxed. Because I work online with singers and speakers all over the world, I regularly see clients before 8am and am available Monday to Friday with late sessions Mondays and Thursdays.

How can I pay for lessons?

Bank transfer is perfect for all sessions.

Do you do gift vouchers?

Vouchers are available for assessment or performance coaching and the session is over Zoom. We can post a physical voucher to you or email one for download.12 month expiry.

I'm interested in joining your social singing group, can you tell me more?

Join us! Our small group of lovely singers meet once a fortnight for an hour & get together for a good sing! I coach you to build your confidence up singing in a group, working on harmonies etc…It’s a lot of fun and a great way to relax/get fit doing something you enjoy, while making new friends. No experience is necessary, there’s no minimum standard and no audition. It’s a lovely thing to be part of.

Tell me about your Voicework group?

There is such a lot of nonsense on the internet and especially on Facebook and I wanted to create a beautiful safe space for all voice users to come together. This has become a kind and supportive community on Facebook, where we share ideas, give advice, share tips, give feedback on your videos. There are regular giveaways and I host live question and answer sessions. It is a place for networking and for job opportunities. Many people are becoming friends from all over the world. It’s free to join and it’s wonderful – join us https://www.facebook.com/groups/voiceworkgroup/

What if I'm not good enough?

I believe everyone can sing though there are varying degrees of natural ability. I have assessed literally hundreds of singers & virtually all of them will be much better than they think they are.

How often will I need lessons with you?

I believe in quality not quantity. You could have a breakthrough after just an hour – My intensive technique produces dramatic results in a short space of time. You have sessions when you want them though those who commit to a series of sessions over a short space of time will undoubtably experience the greatest results.

It says you are also an NLP practitioner - what is that?

Unleash the best version of yourself upon the stage…indeed the WORLD, with a dedicated confidence coaching session infused with NLP magic.
I like to think of NLP as an understanding of the way the mind works – it provides people with stunning tools and resources which are literally life changing. For my singers it makes me a highly effective coach and we will achieve dramatic results quickly, providing singers with a tool box of skills they can use to overcome nerves, boost confidence, lyric recall etc. The possibilities are as exciting as they are endless!

Online Lesson FAQs

What do I need for online lessons?

Working with me over Zoom, is a brilliant way to have the same, fantastic session you would have in person, but without travel time & expense.

There are some basics, to help you get the best out of your session.

1. Test the mic & camera settings every time you connect.

2. Good lighting is important & place your device so I can see you at the same height & from your head to your hips.

3. Consider hard wiring your device to your router using a cable – these are about a fiver & guarantee a great wifi connection.

4. If playing music, use a separate device.

5. Original sound ON for lessons & any tracking/motion sensing on iPads, should be OFF.
