FAQs
Have questions about my singing lessons or other offerings? Here are some FAQs that may help you!
If you DON’T see an answer to your specific question, definitely reach out to me!
No, at this time I do not. However! When you book use code NEWSTUDENT24 to save $10 off your first lesson with me!
That depends on how quickly you want to improve. If you practice in between lessons, I suggest a minimum of two lessons a month.
Weekly if you are very serious!
That depends on what kind you'd like. Please check out my scheduling page for the breakdown.
You and I will discuss your goals, and I'll vocalize you to see where you're at! If you would like to start working on a song right away, we can....but that part is optional!
Minimum 24 hours, or there is a charge (with certain exceptions!)
Yes. I often run deals on lesson packages and occasional special codes for one time lessons.Be sure to sign up for my newsletter! I also offer discounted lessons for military.
Lesson packages are for five lessons, any length. You will receive a code that must be redeemed within 90 days. You can schedule these any time that works for you!
I sure do, I have experience in this!
Yes. You are encouraged to sit in on the first lesson, but after that feel free to leave and come back.
I mostly use Piano Pronto books , they are FANTASTIC.
I enter interested and available students in the Chicago NATS competition held every year at Harper College in Palatine, and any other similar competitions.If there is enough interest, I do my best to coordinate studio recitals. I encourage local students to audition for as many local theatre companies as possible.
YES! I LOVE doing this sort of thing!
Primarily bel canto (for all genres), as well as CoreSinging, which was taught to be my the esteemed Dr. Meribeth Dayme.
I also studied Estill and continue to do so...as well as many others (including screaming basics with the FABULOUS Melissa Cross! )I like for my singers to be well rounded. The most recent method I studied was the NeuroVocal™ method with Meredith Colby
NeuroVocal Method™ is the new kid on the block! This way of coaching is meant to create "brain hacks" for easy, strong singing. We teach your brain what to pay attention to, then we show it how to create the sensations we want. With repetition over time...voila! You won't remember anything but your terrific range, dazzling volume, and singing stamina for days!
It's highly recommended that you record your lessons. I can do this for you if you take a Zoom lesson with me.
I consider myself to be both...many of us are! This means I teach style and performance (coach) as well as vocal technique (teacher)
You bet I can.
Yup, I do that as well...I have a huge library of monologues for actors of all ages.
I offer an Audition Intensive (1.5 hours) OR you are free to book as many lessons as you'd like before your event!
