About Sam
I trained at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts in Musical Theatre, and have worked extensively in the industry for ten years, so I understand the requirements and standards expected from professional actor/singers. I have played numerous leading roles in and around the West End of London, the National Theatre, Chichester Festival Theatre, The Royal Albert Hall and in various regional venues on tour. I am an award-winning actor, winning the first "The Stage" Debut Award for best actor in "Allegro" at the Southwark Playhouse in 2016. I continue to work as a professional actor in plays and musicals, including the most recent major UK & Ireland tour of "101 Dalmatians" the musical in 2024, and the London production of the same show at the Hammersmith Eventim Apollo over the Summer of 2025.
I love fitness, food and movies, so I'm always open o discussions about any or all of these things during our lessons!

From the very first lesson we will cover the fundamentals of becoming a competent and confident singer. We will start with breath control through your singing voice, ensuring you know exactly how to support and sustain your voice.
I believe in learning the foundations of singing before we jump in to the smaller details. Breath work, posture, muscular relaxation and support are the most important techniques and skills to learn as a singer, which is what we will focus on before we move on to vocal placement, vocal styles, riffing and vocal running, emotional connection.
We will always work at your pace so you feel confident with everything we cover, but I will always strive to challenge and push you to achieve more than you ever expected from yourself.
Whether you are brand new to singing, or if you've had singing lessons in the past, I will always work with where your skills and ability are currently placed and I will encourage you to develop and progress on a consistent basis.
Above all, I want to have fun with our lessons and make sure you enjoy every aspect of what we will cover together!

I’ve been working with Sam for about 6 months. I came to him as someone who’d never had lessons before so I was pretty much starting from scratch! There is zero judgment in the room with Sam, he’s encouraging, very knowledgeable and incredibly talented himself. He’s helped me to use different techniques and take my voice to places it’s never been, (he likes a challenging song, haha) which is great because it pushed me out my comfort zone which is exactly what I wanted and needed. HIGHLY recommend, if you’re looking to improve and have a good laugh!
I have worked with Sam extensively over the last 5 years. He is a talented and knowledgeable performer whose experience will be a great asset to whoever he teaches. He is also very approachable and will always listen to needs of others.
Sam is giving me acting coaching. To do this, we're currently working on a monologue from a play he was in recently at the National Theatre. So, while he is working through how to analyse the text, the character, the play and its context in a thorough, engaging and practical way, you also know he has really been there, done it and is doing it. Importantly - it is also great fun!
I reached out to Sam because I wanted to improve my singing for nothing other than the pure joy it brings me. And I am so glad I did. I absolutely love my singing lessons with him. I felt quite nervous going into my first session, not knowing what to expect or if I could even actually sing! But Sam put me right at ease from the very start. He makes the lessons fun and explains every technique he teaches in great detail. I was amazed by how much better my voice sounded in just one session! Sam is welcoming, upbeat, and hugely encouraging in his approach. I look forward to my singing lessons week on week and I can't wait to see how my singing improves as we continue working together. Thanks, Sam!
Sam is an exceptional singing teacher who made my first-time singing experience comfortable and rewarding.
His supportive approach and tailored feedback have boosted my confidence in just a few sessions. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to explore their vocal abilities.Sam in an incredible singing & acting coach. I came to him wanting to become a professional singer. Little did I know I would end up applying for Drama School and getting into my dream course!
I am currently studying Musical Theatre at one of the top Drama Schools in the world and I would not have accomplished this without his guidance & support.
He approaches every lesson with honesty, attention and care. He believes in your ability to succeed, challenges you and makes sure that you learn everything you need to get you to the next step. If you apply everything he teaches you, you will achieve your goal and beyond!
I couldn’t recommend Sam enoughI have known Sam for many years and have watched him develop as a practitioner. Sam is a wonderful teacher who is able to inspire students to relax, feel confident, develop and of course, do their best whatever their age or experience. I am a Sixth Form teacher and have often recommended Sam to my students.

I offer online or in-person coaching. If you want in-person coaching, I am happy for you to come to me, or I can come to you. It is preferable that you have a piano if I come to you, as this will assist with our lessons. I have a fully functioning keyboard and teaching space where I live.
I will provide sheet music for any songs I want you to learn, but you are welcome to bring your own if you have any specific songs in mind.
