Singing/Voice Lessons & Beginner Music Theory Lessons

I teach private singing lessons to children, teenagers, and adults in English (for now) and beginner music theory for all ages.
I have 20 years experience as a performer and 10 years of teaching experience and have a passion for sharing music with others through music education. I believe that singing is a joyful expression of each unique voice and person.
My teaching philosophy is to nurture students to have a fun and positive relationship with music no matter the level or age. My focus on a classical vocal technique gives the student a clear understanding of vocal technique, including: breathing techniques, pitch control, musicality and the knowledge to explore any genre of song. Basic music theory, rhythm, diction, sight-reading and ear training are also taught to the student to support a well rounded musical experience. I also teaches students how to practice, giving them the tools to feel confident in their own learning process. Absolute beginners are welcome!

About Me

Hi! I am Jessica and I am from Canada. I am a classical singer, singing teacher and English language coach. I enjoy working with all levels and ages and my favourite part of teaching is helping someone to realize that they can learn a new skill, be it English or music! I enjoy cycling, reading, exploring the Netherlands, singing with my duo partner in Duo TInuviel, and spending time taking my two kittens for adventures.

Education

I have studied music for 25 years playing violin, cello and singing. I studied at the University of British Columbia, completed my Bachelor Degree in Music and Voice, University of Toronto (both in Canada) and continuously advance my education as a performer and teacher through private lessons, masterclass and courses. I have traveled around Canada and Europe with my studies and performances.

Experience / Qualifications

10 years teaching children, teenagers and adults of all ages music appreciation and singing lessons in several cities across Canada, Berlin (Germany) and in Utrecht (Netherlands). I taught with my private studio as well as an employee with multiple music studios. I also work with my own singing teacher in private lessons on Singing Pedagogy.

Reviews (1)

Very knowledgeable and fun
Knowing English in the Netherlands is an important skill. Being confident with the grammar, comprehension and diction with English opens doors for you locally and internationally. I offer English lessons that focus on application for all levels and goals. You learn to correctly pronounce North American or Mid-Atlantic English (not-quite British), and have creative and goal specific exercises and lesson plans all tailored to your needs. I work with children and school-aged children, young professionals preparing for interviews, as well as adults wanting to sharpen their skills and take their English to the next level.

Hernan
Berklee College of Music Graduate offers private lessons of Guitar, Harmony & Improvisation in Utrecht
The way I teach actually depends entirely on the student. The way I explain the concepts, plan and structure the lessons and approach each subject all depends on whether the student is a beginner, intermediate or advanced, and whether he or she has some experience on the subject. Each student has different needs and different abilities. It's just a matter of getting to know the student, in order to identify both the weaknesses and strengths on which to work.

Singing lessons in various styles & beginner music theory lessons
Singing lessons for all levels and age. For beginners, together we can discover the range of your voice and build the breathing and singing technique. At the same time we will work on music theory, ear training and how to read a score. For mature singers, we can delve into the singing technique and interpretation and add pieces in your repertoire. The lessons are provided both online and in person and can be held in English or Greek. I also speak some Italian and German. About me I have been playing the piano for 15 years. I have studied Classical Singing in the Municipal Conservatory of Kalamata (Greece) and I have followed a two-year Early Music Programme in Athens Conservatoire. At the same time I studied Music Theory (Harmony) at the Greek National Conservatoire from which I gained my Harmony degree. In addition, I have a Bachelor in Early Childhood Education at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. Currently, I am a second year master student at the Utrechts Conservatorium and working as a singer at the NKK NXT. I have participated in Operas (“Julius Cesar”- 2015 in Athens Concert Hall and “Alcina”-2019 in Odeon of Herodes Atticus) as a member of a vocal ensemble and I have also performed as a soloist in many concerts. Some of the stages I have performed are: Concertgebouw Amsterdam, TivoliVredenburg, Schouwburg Concertzaal Tilburg, Athens Concert Hall, Greek National Opera and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus.

Linsey
Online Singing lessons and live lessons in Utrecht area
Singing to me is the best feeling ever. Your entire body is moving and your head is totally empty of worries. You lose who you are and transform into a new person. One time you are a prince or princess, the other a warrior fighting a duel. Maybe you stare at a beautiful river or fall in love like never before. All of this and even crazier situations are material for songs. Singing is so much more than just notes, it is about using your fantasy and telling a story. I love this feeling so much that I want to share how you can experience all of this while singing. ​ In general, singing is a combination of technique (pitches and rhythm), posture, and breathing. Next to that, we have diction, acting, body language, expression, and joy! You sing because you like it! ​ Singing is for all ages, all levels, and I adapt my lessons to your level. Don't worry if you can't read sheet music, it is a bonus if you can. If you have any questions feel free to write me a message.
