I use Practice Sheets to help my pupils with their own technique. I find them extremely useful as it gives the pupil a greater incentive to learn at home. For an A4 printable Practice Sheet click on the Image. If you cannot read the file, download the Adobe Reader Here.

TEACHING
I can provide individual singing lessons in Chester or at your home within the Chester area. Many of my pupils work through the Trinity Guildhall exam syllabus with me though some choose not to take the actual exams themselves, preferring to learn less formally. I currently have an extremely busy schedule.
I work through the Trinity Guildhall exam syllabus as I find the choice of songs are well varied for singing. I expect the highest standards from my pupils by building their confidence and performance skills so they go into the exams prepared, knowing they will perform well.
Seventeen of my pupils were put forward for examination in June 2008, ranging from Grade 2 to Grade 8;
7 - Distinctions
6 - Merits
4 - Passes
100% pass rate
The highest being 93/100 for Grade 8.
My current teaching fee is £25 per hour for lessons at my home or £30 per hour at your home within 7 miles of Chester. If you live further away I may have to charge more depending upon the distance I have to travel.
