Learn to Sing with a Qualified Opera Singer with 6+ years teaching & professional performance experience.
Whether you're a beginner who just wants a confidence boost, or someone with a music background who wants to take your technique up a notch, I'd be so happy to make music with you!
The principles of music-based vocal & breath work have such power, & will not only make you feel more oxygenated, but will bring out a strength of voice & character that you didn't know you possessed!
I am/have been Peripatetic Vocal Coach at 2 Independent Girls High Schools, 2 Preparatory schools (one of which is all-boys), and teach several homeschoolers (one of whom lives in Zambia, and is online). I'm confident that I can give you the same sound pedagogical experience online that you would receive on site.
My current online students live in China, Kyrgstan, New York, Zambia, Cape Town, Finland and Switzerland.
Here's what one of my mature pupils from 2019 had to say:
"I have always loved singing, but never had the confidence to follow through with my passion.
As an adult it can be pretty daunting. I had a couple of lessons with Emma, & through her encouragement, patience & great teaching skills, my confidence grew .. She inspired me to believe in myself and my ability to sing, especially when I did not believe it myself.
She is a tremendously positive, engaging & fun teacher, & I always came out of her lessons feeling better than I had walking in, & looking forward to the next lesson!"
Others in 2022 said:
"I now feel that I can sing well beyond 45mins, whereas previously with another coach, it was all that I could manage in a day! I'm also not afraid of high notes anymore, as I've been taught how to approach them healthily and safely."
"I have been singing this song for a while, and haven't been able to sing those tops. In one lesson, you've shown me, as a tenor, how to do so - and comfortably!"
Colleagues of mine at schools that I teach at have said of my lessons:
"It is a privilege to listen to you teach."
"I have never heard sounds like that coming from our department!"
So what are you waiting for? Join me online, from a vocally safe and sunny home studio, & let's start from where you're at, make music, & have FUN doing it!

Emma was an exceptional singing teacher and we had something special in common. We both prepared to surprise our husbands to be at our weddings! She got married a few days before me, so she knew exactly what I was looking for in learning the song I chose. She taught me warm up exercises and we went through my song step by step till I felt 100% confident to sing in front of my husband and all wedding guests. It was perfect and no dry eyes were left. Thank you, Emma, for making our special day even more special!
Very fun lesson, the time flew by. Patient and considerate teacher with good sense of humour.
Emma is a fantastic teacher who is super positive and encouraging. She teaches with enthusiasm and has lots to offer on improving my singing. Amazing teacher!
Great teacher! My daughter enjoyed the lesson. :)

Singing and Phonetics Lessons for Beginners and ProfessionalsMy pedagogy is holistic in nature and is inspired by different techniques transmitted by the teachers who have guided me and continue to follow me today.
The format I want to offer is as follows:
first I listen to the learner to find together the best learning method,
then I offer him physical warm-up exercises.
I continue with vocalizations adapted to his level and his needs.
Then, while applying a vocal technique aimed at the balance of the thoraco-abdominal breathing,
I accompany him in reading the text for a progressive approach to the interpretation of the piece.
PSI strongly recommend using the voice recorder.
