Creative Musician Masters graduate teaches singing, songwriting and performance
Did you ever ask yourself what your life would look like if you had more confidence?
With me, your goals and self-esteem are my #1 priority.
It’s estimated that roughly 85% of people worldwide have low self-esteem. This can lead to mental health issues such as anxiety and have a dramatic impact on our personal and professional lives.
To combat this, we must take special care of ourselves and I believe that working towards finding our individual voices is a fantastic way to do so. Working on a creative skill cultivates greater emotional health and builds our confidence as we improve.
I’m the right tutor for you if:
You’re ready to take action to build your confidence
You want to overcome fears around performing
You want to expand the range of notes you can sing
You want to discover your voice
You want to improve your vocal tone
You want to stabilise and strengthen your voice
You want tools to manage anxiety and become a better a singer through work on breathing techniques
You DON’T want to spend hours on scales or music theory
I wasn’t born a naturally good singer and have struggled with anxiety for as long as I can remember. I’m now a professional singer and singing coach, signed to a record label with over 3 million streams and although I still experience anxiety, I’m far better equipped to cope with it thanks in part to breathing techniques. It’s safe to say, I know how impactful the right guidance can be.
You can see it in the reviews from my students too - through my coaching, confidence blossoms alongside the voice.
Make this the turning point of your life.

About Me
Fran has helped to nurture and uplift people with a focus on wellbeing and music, guided by her belief that anyone can sing.Fran has over 5 years of teaching experience with children under the age of 10, teenagers, adults and retirees. She is experienced at differentiating for those with physical and developmental disabilities.
Alongside private 1-2-1 tuition, Fran has worked as a community singing facilitator, creating safe and uplifting environments for groups of vulnerable adults to learn about singing, movement and employable life skills. She has also created courses and workshops with a focus on music and wellbeing.
Fran has a First Class MMus Postgraduate [Creative Musician], with a focus on the voice, performance and songwriting.
She is signed to SUBTXT Records and Saint in the City Publishing, has been featured on Spotify editorial playlists and garnered over 3 million Spotify streams. She has been featured on the cover of The Crack magazine, received support from Launchpad and Help Musicians UK; performed live on BBC Yorkshire; and also performed on Made in Leeds (TV).

The goal is to help you discover your voice and sing confidently, tension free.
To do this we'll focus on the key components of singing well and safely: breathing, posture and primal sounds.
It's also incredibly important that we focus on the music that is meaningful to you, so song choices will be led by you (although I'm happy to choose songs for you if preferred!)
Fran brings her wealth of experience to every lesson, allowing her to truly tap into and provide for the needs of each individual student with practical, hands-on coaching. You can not only expect to dramatically improve as a singer, but to feel your confidence blossom and tap into industry know-how from someone currently operating within it. All this and more!
Press quotes about Fran:
“You connect with the songs on an emotional level; they go straight to your heart, your soul… [on ‘Normal’] It’s perfect, there’s nothing else left to say.” - Local Sound Focus
“discovering Fran Minney’s beautiful songs has amazed and delighted me… Fran has such succulent husky vocals… This dreamy indie-electronica singer/ songwriter has me hooked” - Reyt Good Magazine
“this talented singer-songwriter creates dreamy and delicate music, with earnest lyrics set against bubbly, poppy electronic production work... incredibly lush voice and style” - Richer Unsigned
What do I need to know before my first lesson?
- Lessons are available Monday-Thursday.
- Our first lesson will be spent getting to know each other - I want to hear what you hope to get out of your singing lessons and anything you feel is holding you back so that I can tailor lessons to what you're interested in.
- Please prepare something to sing for me - even if it's just a short section from a song.
- Lesson structure: warm up, technique-based learning, song work, cool down.
- Teaching typically takes place in my home in Headingley. I am able to travel to student's homes (for an additional travel fee) and teach online via Skype.

Leonsio
Vocal Technique classes for ALL levels. 9 years of experience as an instructor.My approach as a teacher:
I teach through practice and creativity. I believe the best way to learn music is by making music.
My classes are tailored to the student's interests and level: you can come with an idea in mind or a project already underway, and we'll work together to take it to the next level.
I'm interested in training musicians with judgment, sensitivity, and real tools to thrive in the industry.
Teaching techniques and methods:
• 100% personalized classes, focused on your goals.
• Work with DAWs (Ableton Live, Studio One, Pro Tools) and real recording tools.
• Song analysis, structures, harmony, sound design and mixing.
• Development of artistic identity and guidance in creative processes.
• Constant feedback and focus on your own projects if you wish.
What are the classes like:
Each class has a practical and dynamic approach. We can work on singing, guitar, composition, production, recording, mixing, and applied music theory. The idea is to progress step by step, without losing sight of your style and interests.
Who are the classes for?
My classes are aimed at:
• People who are passionate and want to learn about music.
• Musicians who want to start producing their own songs.
• People interested in music production from scratch.
• Artists who already have songs and want to improve their sound.
• Self-taught students looking for more structured guidance.
• You don't need previous experience or professional equipment: just a desire to learn.
Francesca
Italian soprano offers coaching of Italian Pronunciation for singersAs an Italian Opera singer, I help since many years singers with the right pronunciation of the repertoire they sing, helping them in shaping the language in a clear way, which also helps the singing.
Our lesson will involve speaking, pronunciation exercises and singing.
We will start the lesson by reading the text and finding the right direction and emphasis.
We will focus on the sounds and how to produce them.
In the second part of the lesson, we will apply all of the above to the singing!
Cheslava
Piano and Singing tutor with 5 years experience and professional educationFrom my childhood I have been studying music and art: sang in choir and solo, played piano, painted, studied music history and literature, solfeggio. Later in college I have also learned choir conducting, had ensemble and choir singing lessons,
cultural studies.
During last year in university I had pedagogy practice at university and at private art school (where I worked as a music tutor before the war - piano, voice). I truly enjoyed working with students. They all were different age (8 - 40+ years old) and level. But all were very interesting and work was pleasant.
My education was very various: my core subjects were conducting, choir, voice, piano. So it allowed me to work with children, teens and adults with quite wide range of interests and needs: some students needed/wanted to learn particular composition(s), sometimes pop songs arrangements, some were interested in “introduction” to the music, some wanted to renew skills they gained in their childhood and continue their journey to the music world. In addition I prepared presentations (which contained information about cultural and historical background and musical and character/art analysis).
So after graduation from choir conducting faculty (which allowed me to deepen my knowledge in many important compatible branches) I concentrated on studying classical singing and piano, expanded my cultural studies and analysis knowledge, practiced solfeggio and harmony.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Alizee
Singing lessons from a professional singer in Amsterdam. Technique, body and mind connection. Learn to sing freely, healthily and with ease. Welcome 👋Through various techniques I help you to feel and understand your own voice. Often singing becomes easy when you apply the right breathing technique.
Posture is also important (this is sometimes underestimated).
I can see when there is tension in your throat or in your body. I zoom in on this during the lesson. And I correct that.
During the first lesson I listen carefully to your voice and to your goals and ideas. Based on that I create a tailor-made lesson that serves your goals. Do you not have any goals yet? Then we will look for them together! Maybe you really want to sing this one song?
I do this too!:
I have a home studio where I can record your voice. You can use this as a demo. I also have experience with producing music. I would like to teach you the basics of producing and what you need for it.
