Top Singing & Voice Lessons in Port Wentworth, GA

Every student is a unique person who deserves a lesson customized to their individual needs. Each of my students prospers in an atmosphere of patience and encouragement. While the lessons are fun and enjoyable, the serious student will be supported in the development of skills leading to a rewarding career.

Warm-ups will also introduce you to new techniques for properly using your voice in a healthy and beautiful way.
After warm-ups, we will work on songs. Typically, you will sing ...

Here's a little about me: I play sax for the band Fungus Amungus. I also play sax/piano in several bands in Hilton Head. I have previously been band/chorus director at Battery Creek, EP High, St Raphael Academy and a lot of schools in MA. I play piano, sax, drums, trumpet and other instruments...

I have studied guitar, voice, piano, music theory, and songwriting extensively at LA College of Music and also independently with music professionals through private lessons for the past 15 years. I have taught privately for 7 years and developed an approach that explains the complexity of these instruments/skills in a simple manner that helps students grasp the concepts and begin playing immediately.

With over 10 years of teaching experience, and 25 years of playing experience, you're in capable hands to learn it all from the basics to the classics! I have a bachelor's degree in music, and a certification in Contemporary Commercial Music, I can help you learn almost any style.
