About Sydney
I have been singing more or less my whole life, and love trying out different styles. I also play guitar and piano, write music, have some (emphasis on some) music production skills, and am knowledgeable about music theory. As mentioned, I'm very interested in arts and health and the ways music can be used to build self-esteem, create social connection, improve self-awareness, and develop emotional skills. While this will not necessarily work into every lesson, if music and wellbeing work is something you're interested in, I'm definitely happy to plan lessons accordingly! This will sound so cliché, but what I like most about teaching singing is when the student gets confidence that they can sing! So many students come in for their first lesson claiming they cannot sing at all, and in my experience that is never the case :)

I have experience teaching all ages and levels, with a preference for teenagers and adults just starting out. I am well-versed in different styles and my priority is helping you sing how you want to sing, what you want to sing, and in a way that enhances your natural voice. I like to use a variety of methods depending on the comfortability and needs of the student and am always learning new techniques based on what my students are working on. I might make you blow bubbles into water with a straw from time to time :) I also like to incorporate ear training / musicianship and music theory into my lessons, if that's something you're interested in. Finally, I have a bachelor's and master's degree in psychology and love combining arts and health. My bachelor's thesis was on the benefits of music training for various mental health concerns, I've created an online course using music education and performance for mental health, and I have experience teaching music-centred groups in different health and social care settings. I also have two years' experience teaching private singing lessons.

My teenage daughter has been having singing lessons with Sydney for four months so far and really enjoys each session. Sydney is friendly, encouraging and professional. She took time to understand my daughter’s goals and structures her lessons to develop different aspects of her voice. She suggests suitable songs for my daughter’s voice and goals and even provided tools to support practice between lessons, such as guide and warm-up tracks. I fully recommend Sydney to anyone looking to develop their voice.
Our 11 year old daughter has been taking lessons from Sydney for a few months now & has really enjoyed it. Sydney is great with her - professional & engaging. Our daughter wanted to learn more contemporary/pop music vs musicals, opera, etc and Sydney is very in touch with current music. We definitely recommended her!
Sydney is a great person and a driven and fair teacher. She’s very organized and patient, with a strong love for music that’s contagious. And that voice, wow!
Sydney is a great teacher! She has a lot of experience and knows how to explain things really well.
She found water from a rock in my signing!
