Irene

Hi, I am Irene: vocal and piano tutor. I own a First Class Honours Degree from the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford, where I specialised in Contemporary Vocal Technique and Performance and I have been teaching both singing and piano to children, teenagers and adults for more than 5 years. My lessons take place online and can be 30 - 45 or 60 minutes long. SINGING LESSONS are structured as follows: - Body and vocal warm-up - Contemporary vocal technique exercises - Repertoire building and performance In the lessons I will help you understand how your voice works and how you can control it in order to improve your tone, your intonation, your power and your vocal agility. We will work on your performance and stagecraft technique and every lesson will represent a safe space for you to explore and discover your potential as a singer. Each session will be tailored to your needs and goals. Whatever you want to achieve, I will be there to help you achieve it! I can also help you prepare for auditions and Rockschool and Trinity's Rock & Pop vocal exams (from debut/initial to grade 8). PIANO LESSONS include: 1) Basics of music theory 2) Piano technique exercises, scales, chords and arpeggios 3) Study of classical or contemporary piano pieces, depending on your preferences 4) Ear training 5) Sight reading In the lessons you will learn how to read sheet music properly, how to recognise rhythms and rhythmic patterns, and how to play the timing accurately and with ease. I will also help you build an efficient practice routine and develop a solid piano technique. I will also be happy to help you prepare for ABRSM and Rockschool graded exams (Debut/Initial to grade 4). Contact me for a free trial lesson!
