Singing (Classical and Contemporary), QTS certified Teacher

من 361.36 QAR /س

Hello, my name is Ricardo and I'm a Portuguese professional opera singer and singing teacher based in London. I trained at the University of Aveiro (2010; BMus & MEdu Vocal Performance and Tuition w/ Distinction) and at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama (2011; MMus in Performance w/ Merit). I'm a certified singing teacher and would love to help you! I teach singing to any age range and in a variety of styles: Classical, Contemporary/Musical Theatre. I teach either at my home in Wimbledon or at the student's home. I'm happy to travel within the London metropolitan area but will adjust the price of the lessons according to the travel costs I incur. My schedule is very flexible and the lessons are to be arranged with the student on a weekly basis. My singing students will be prepared to undertake any endeavour they want to in the music world: I can prepare them to sing for fun for family gatherings, Conservatoire access, ABRSM exams or to sing professionally. I've also had great success with Skype/Facetime singing lessons. These are charged at the same price as live lessons and the date and time are to be arranged between me and the student. My Message to you: My singing teaching is based in objective physical information which you can replicate, memorise and follow. My main goal is to help you build a healthy muscle memory for singing which you can then put to the service of Art. I believe a great technical foundation is at the core of Artistic Creation and a Vocal Technique is the toolbox from where you draw what you need in order to express yourself. Having built my own voice from scratch, I know how to put the puzzle of Singing together and will support you to achieve the same. I'm an honest supportive teacher and I will make sure we enjoy our time working together.

من أنا؟

I have 10+ years of experience teaching Singing at a professional level. I taught in 2 Music Conservatoires in Portugal: the Aveiro Music Conservatoire and the Figueira da Foz Music Conservatoire, where I was also Head of Department. I currently also teach at the St. James Independent Senior Boys' School in Ashford (Surrey). I've been teaching privately for 10 years as well. I am DBS Checked and Qualified Teacher Status Certified. I'm also a member of the Incorporated Society of Musicians, no. 72724 My Own Training: I trained at the University of Aveiro with Antonio Salgado, at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama with Laura Sarti. After that I studied with leading Welsh tenor Dennis O'Neil at the Wales International Academy of Voice, and I currently study privately in Italy with American teacher Sherman Lowe. I've also had the chance to learn in Masterclasses from renowned singers like Montserrat Caballé, Sir John Tomlinson, Dame Ann Murray, Dame Felicity Lott, Della Jones, Teresa Berganza, Gerald Finley, Stuart Skelton and Dame Anne Evans. Current Students: At St. James I'm working mainly with teenagers who are navigating the tricky process of puberty voice changes. My main objective with them is to make sure they have a solid breathing and supporting technique which will serve them no matter what voice type they end up with after their voices fully change. In terms of tone, we're working towards achieving healthy vowel purity which they will also be able to use independently of where they voices end up after puberty. My private students are of a very mixed background. I recently helped an adult male to successfully retrain as a tenor after singing wrongly as a baritone for years and the results have been thrilling both for him and myself, and he's now singing standard lyric tenor repertoire with ease and beauty. Another recent success case was also with a young tenor who arrived with several issues of lack of breath management coordination, reduced range and who after a lot of work from both sides, is now singing beautifully both Classical and Music Theatre repertoire and has since started being offered solo roles in Musicals. Other than teaching singing, I also have a a track record of successes helping people with speech therapy and recovery from vocal injury: my technical approach is grounded first and foremost in efficient breath management as the foundation for everything. I've helped some of the leading British Sports Commentators to maximise the efficiency of their phonation so they don't harm themselves hosting matches where they have to speak loudly for hours.

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.

Jawa (1996) a Syrian oud player, singer and composer.
I was born in Aleppo, and I grew up in Damascus, Syria. I started playing music at the age of eleven. I chose the Oud as my instrument because my father used to play it everyday at home when I was young. Gradually, I fell in love with it and now I feel an unlimited feeling of freedom while playing it. Graduated from Rotterdam Conservatory in 2021.

In order to become a professional singer, you must learn how to breathe correctly and it has several benefits, and learn how to correctly exit the letter from the mouth, also learn the shape of the letter and the place of its exit in an appropriate manner, then learn the vocalizations, which is about adapting the body (ear) and spirit to adapt to the audible tone And knowing how to perform it correctly, learning the musical scales, learning the theatrical performance of the Ghinwa (and this makes you a distinguished singer), how to record in the studio without taking a long time with the sound engineer

Stand out among your peers with your musical talent and start learning to play the oud from the beginning to professionalism. Refine your musical skills by studying the basics of solfege and singing and studying the maqams of Arabic music, and learn to play many oriental songs by various famous singers in the Arab world, both ancient and modern.

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.

الموسيقى ليست مجرد نغمات تُعزف، بل لغة داخلية، إحساس، وصوت يعكس ما بداخل الإنسان.
تعلّم العزف الحقيقي لا يبدأ من السرعة أو كثرة المقطوعات، بل من الفهم، التأسيس الصحيح، وبناء علاقة متوازنة مع الآلة.

هذه الرحلة الموسيقية صُمّمت لتكون مساحة دافئة، آمنة، ومنظمة لكل من يرغب في تعلّم العزف على الكمان أو إعادة تأسيس نفسه موسيقيًا بطريقة صحيحة، واضحة، وبعيدة عن الضغط أو التعقيد.

إذا كنت تبحث عن مدرس موسيقى أونلاين يقدّم تعليمًا حقيقيًا، عمليًا، وإنسانيًا في نفس الوقت، فهذه الرحلة مخصصة لك.

رحلة تعليمية قائمة على الفهم لا التقليد

الدروس هنا لا تعتمد على الحفظ أو تقليد الحركات فقط،
بل على فهم ما يتم عزفه، ولماذا، وكيف يمكن تطويره.

الهدف الأساسي هو أن:

تشعر بالراحة والثقة أثناء العزف

تسمع صوتك بوضوح وتتحكم فيه

تفهم الآلة بدلًا من مجرّد استخدامها

تتقدّم بوتيرة تناسبك دون استعجال

سواء كنت في بداية الطريق أو ترغب في إعادة التأسيس، يتم التعامل مع كل متعلّم كحالة خاصة لها احتياجاتها وإيقاعها.

التأسيس الصحيح من اليوم الأول

يبدأ العمل على أساس قوي يشمل:

Correct posture ووضعية جسم مريحة وطبيعية

Proper instrument handling منذ أول حصة

بناء التوازن بين اليدين تدريجيًا

تطوير التحكم في bow movement

استخراج tone متزن وواضح بدون توتر

كل خطوة يتم شرحها عمليًا وبأسلوب بسيط، مع تصحيح مستمر أثناء العزف.

فهم الموسيقى قبل عزفها

العزف الحقيقي لا ينفصل عن الفهم الموسيقي.
لذلك تشمل الرحلة:

Reading music notation بطريقة مبسّطة وعملية

فهم rhythm و timing بشكل واضح

تنمية musical ear وربط السمع بالحركة

إدراك العلاقة بين sound، finger placement، وbow control

هذا الدمج بين الفهم والتطبيق هو ما يصنع تقدّمًا حقيقيًا ومستقرًا.

تطوير الصوت وبناء الأسلوب

مع التقدّم، يبدأ العمل بشكل أعمق على:

Sound production وتحسين جودة الصوت

Balance بين اليد اليمنى واليسرى

التحكم في dynamics والانتقالات

التعبير الموسيقي بدل العزف الآلي

التركيز هنا ليس على كثرة التمارين، بل على جودة الأداء والإحساس أثناء العزف.

تقنيات العزف الأساسية والمتقدمة

جزء أساسي من الرحلة هو العمل المنظّم على تقنيات العزف التي تُكوّن العازف فعليًا، وليس فقط شكليًا.

يتم التدرّج في:

Vibrato
من فهم الحركة الصحيحة، اختيار نوع vibrato المناسب،
والتحكم في speed و width، للوصول إلى صوت دافئ، غني، ومعبّر دون إجهاد.

Scales
ليس كتمارين منفصلة، بل كأداة أساسية لتحسين intonation،
تثبيت finger patterns، وبناء ذاكرة سمعية وحركية قوية.

Arpeggios
لتطوير flexibility في اليد اليسرى،
تحسين transitions، والتوازن أثناء العزف عبر الأوتار المختلفة.

يتم ربط هذه التقنيات دائمًا بالعزف الفعلي والموسيقي، حتى لا تصبح تمارين جافة بلا معنى.

أسلوب التدريس

أسلوب التدريس قائم على:

الهدوء والصبر

الشرح الواضح بدون تعقيد

متابعة حقيقية وتوجيه مستمر

تصحيح عملي أثناء الدرس

بناء الثقة قبل أي شيء

لا يوجد ضغط أو مقارنة، بل دعم وتشجيع يساعد المتعلّم على التطوّر بثبات.

دروس موسيقى أونلاين بفاعلية حقيقية

التعلّم أونلاين هنا ليس بديلًا ضعيفًا، بل وسيلة فعّالة ومرنة تتيح:

تركيزًا كاملًا أثناء الحصة

تفاعل مباشر وتصحيح فوري

مساحة للأسئلة والنقاش

توجيه واضح للتدريب بين الدروس

مناسبة لكل من يبحث عن:

Online violin lessons

Music lessons online

Private online music teaching

Learning violin remotely بطريقة جادة ومنظمة

لمن هذه الرحلة؟

هذه الرحلة مناسبة لكل من:

يرغب في تعلّم العزف من البداية

يريد إعادة تأسيس نفسه موسيقيًا

يبحث عن تعليم موسيقي منظم وهادئ

يحب الموسيقى ويريد فهمها بعمق

من دون أي تقسيم أو تحديد عمري،
الأساس هنا هو الرغبة في التعلّم والالتزام بالرحلة.

الهدف النهائي

الهدف ليس فقط عزف مقطوعات، بل:

بناء أساس موسيقي قوي

التحكم الحقيقي في الصوت

عزف واثق ومتوازن

تطوّر مستمر بدون استعجال

علاقة ممتعة وصادقة مع الموسيقى

في النهاية 🌵🤎

الموسيقى رحلة شخصية جدًا،
وتحتاج إلى من يرافقك فيها بفهم، صبر، واهتمام حقيقي.

إذا كنت تبحث عن تعليم موسيقي أونلاين يجمع بين الاحتراف، الدفء، والوضوح،
فهذه الرحلة صُمّمت لتكون نقطة بداية حقيقية، أو إعادة انطلاق صحيحة.♡♬
