I offer private singing lessons in Ghent with piano or guitar accompaniment. Knowledge of music theory is not necessary, the desire to sing and to work is sufficient! We consider warming up, technique and intention, but the pleasure of singing is always paramount.For me, singing is the best thing there is and I am happy to help you on your way to discover your own voice. Already 10 years of experience as a professional singer (Sophia plays Leonard Cohen, Ansatz der Maschine, Little Dots) 5 years of experience as a singing teacher. I also have experience in working with groups at singing workshops and in music education with young children.

In singing lessons it is a new journey of discovery with every student and that is what I find so fascinating and educational about this work! Singing can make people blossom and I find it extremely valuable work to support students in this.Education

Everyone can sing! - singing lessons for all ages and levels from a classical singer -->Did you ever want to know how Paul Potts or Susan Boyle can sing like that?
->Do you sing in a choir and want to improve your vocal skills?
->Do you need a certain way to give your personality a voice, but don't know how?
->Do you need help to prepare yourself for music exams or want to study singing and need someone to prepare your piece with?
I offer singing lessons in GERMAN and ENGLISH and NEDERLANDS
The three pillars of my teaching philosophy:
1. Body awareness
2. Enjoy yourself and your voice
3. using the voice in the most healthy way!
I am a classically trained Voiceteacher from Germany and have sung as a concert soloist and in choirs for years and know what it means to come out of a rehearsal hoarse. We can prevent that.
I believe that everyone can sing and that everyone has musicality within them.
I'm excited to get to know you and your voice :)

Singing course and vocal coaching for those who want to learn to sing and who want to learn to use the voice betterNo, we don't think that being able to sing is absolutely necessary for actors. Not every actor or actress has the ambition to appear in a musical and not every series or film features singing. Still, vocal coaching is a good idea... whether you want to learn to sing or not!
With your course fee you can participate in any of our courses whenever you want. This way you can not only learn to act, but also taste our courses in debate and presentation techniques (our TV course), communication, singing, improvisation, 'physical acting', lie detection, hypnosis, directing, or writing! Of course, the following applies: the more you follow 1 particular course, the faster you progress.
More info
Anyone who has ambitions as a singer or who wants to expand his or her skills to make it easier to land a role will soon end up taking singing lessons... but also those who have no intention of ever performing songs. can benefit greatly from vocal coaching.
You often have to be on set for a long time and then it is important to use your voice properly, so that it does not get tired and you can speak as powerfully after hours of recording as before. Finally, it is very useful to be able to put different effects on your voice. Just think of the raspy character of Gollum in The Lord of the Rings, the barking explanations of Samson, the full voice of Kabouter Plop or the grunted insults exchanged in The Chronicles of Sabrina. Judiciously used voice effects can not only add color to characters, they are sometimes essential or almost automatically arise from emotional moments. So being able to use them correctly and maintain control over them without damaging your vocal cords is essential.
What you learn
As is the case with almost all of our courses, we teach you techniques from different approaches. For our singing lessons, these are Speech Level Singing (SLS), Estill Voice Training (EVT) and Complete Vocal Technique (CVT).
Here are some things that will pass in review:
• The similarities and differences between the three major singing techniques
• Using support
• The larynx, lips, and other organs that help control voice production
• Add necessary twang
• Add air or not
• Different vocal modes (with CVT): neutral, curbing, overdrive and edge.
• Variety of voice effects including: creaking, distortion, grunting, rattling, screaming, vibrato and ornamentation
• For actors: relationship between voice color, effects and the playing of all kinds of characters
• For actors: the relationship between stem kle
Extras
• Help with the CV
• Assistance with admissions
• Help in choosing the right equipment
• Help with finding auditions
• Syllabus with pdf of the book Complete Vocal Technique
You can participate whenever you want!

TEACHER / TRAINER
Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.
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.

Ziad
Oriental Arabic Oud and Singing Teacher in GermanyIn our Oud class, I will guide you through everything from basic to advanced techniques. We will cover playing for all levels, correct left-hand use, synchronizing with the right hand, handling the pick, tuning the Oud, and effectively using a tuner and metronome. In the remaining time, we will dive into reading musical notes, starting with basic Solfege and progressing to advanced and oriental Solfege, including dictation exercises. This comprehensive approach ensures a well-rounded musical journey
My recommendation for learning the Oud is to begin by studying musical notes and notation before delving into songs. While some students prefer to jump straight into playing songs, understanding the fundamentals of music notation accelerates progress in the long run. Dedication and hard work can yield significant progress within a year, enabling you to play simple tunes.
Feel free to leave me a message, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Singing Lessons for Beginner and Advanced StudentsDeepening my knowledge of singing and passing on my skills to students are the things I love to do most and I have been teaching singing to beginners and professionals for many years now.
I start from the basics of breathing, vocal warmup, and anatomy of the phonatory organ, to reach a confident use of the vocal instrument, and mastery of the technique, alongside body awareness.
For set-out-artists, for those who want to go further into the technique and receive a guide in the artistic sector, I offer my professionalism in the study of the repertoire and performing techniques, introducing and deepening notions of pronunciation and diction for singers, understanding of the text, acting and executive techniques (applied to singing). Furthermore, my students have the opportunity to make professional recordings, to follow and document their artistic evolution (Self-recording technique lessons can be added).
I have a bachelor's degree in classical singing from Conservatorio di Musica “F. Morlacchi” (Perugia, Italy) and I can speak English and Italian in the lessons.
I am available both online and in person, don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Online singing tutor. Professional vocal coach with over 8 years of experienceHi, I'm an active opera singer and I offer one-to-one online singing lessons to students of all ages and abilities. I have a Master of fine arts (Department of Vocal and Acting Studies) from Lodz Musical Accademy in Poland and I've performed professionally as an opera singer in Baltic Opera. In 2020 I got a special scholarship from prestigious Accademia D'Arte Lirica in Italy. Apart from opera experience, I was a leader of the alternative rock band for many years. Currently I continue my career in Italy singing in many opera theaters and teaching.
As a vocal coach I specialize in multi-genre styles such as classical, musical, pop, rock and jazz. I put emphasis on the breathing techniques, enhancing body awareness, correct emission, musicality, interpretation, pure intonation and diction. I create original lesson plans that contour to my students individual needs. I provide a compassionate and creative learning environment in addition to a solid foundation in classical technique and musical fundamentals. My methods consist of warm-ups that help understand breath support and vocal placement to improve vocal awareness and stretch range. Psychology is a very important factor in my teaching method, because I believe that singing is also a great therapy.
I teach children, teenagers, adults and senior (beginners to more advanced). Some of my students are already successful in the music market.
