Vocal coaching develops a strong singing voice while boosting self-confidence, clarity, and inner harmony. A good coach helps you discover your unique voice, encouraging risk-taking and individuality, which enhances performance confidence. Clarity comes from understanding vocal mechanics, improving breath control and diction, allowing for better emotional expression in music and daily communication. Achieving harmony involves aligning vocal expression with emotions, fostering inner peace and fulfilment.

Experienced teacher of Oud and oriental Arabic singing for over 11 years, I am Lebanese and currently residing in Germany. I studied for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. I taught at the Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and gave private lessons. In addition, I was conductor of the Loubnan Assalam oriental orchestra for over 5 years.

My recommendation for learning the Oud is to start with the study of notes and musical notation before tackling pieces. Although some students prefer to play songs directly, understanding the basics of musical notation allows for faster progress in the long run. With determination and hard work, significant progress can be made in a year, allowing one to play simple melodies.

Please feel free to leave me a message, I will reply as soon as possible.

I work to regulate the nervous system and heal the mindset because when the inner self shifts, the voice follows. I use this comprehensive expertise to help you accurately discover and train your authentic vocal type, ensuring you are on the right path to finding your own unstoppable melody.
Early on, I was mistakenly classified as a mezzo-soprano, singing repertoire that never quite felt right. It was only through the dedication of two brilliant private Russian opera mentors—a Tenor and a Mezzo-Soprano—who saw past the initial misclassification and patiently taught me, that my true voice emerged. This pivotal experience forms the core of my teaching philosophy: a commitment to never letting a student be misdirected, and understanding that true vocal freedom begins in the mind and body. Whether your heart beats for the dramatic fire of Opera, the structured beauty of Classical repertoire, or the vibrant energy of Broadway, my approach is holistic.
