PLEASE NOTE: It's not good practice to give vocal training to children under the age of 14 years, as vocal training involves the development of muscles -
PLEASE NOTE: It's not good practice to give vocal training to children under the age of 14 years, as vocal training involves the development of muscles -
so just as you wouldn't send your child to develop their muscles on weight machines in the gym, bear in mind that it's best to wait to develop the muscles they use for singing, otherwise the voice can be damaged permanently. To find out what to avoid in a singing teacher, click here
............so what is available for children?
Individual Lessons: While I don't give vocal training to children, I'm very happy to help children to enjoy singing in a number of fun ways. Individual lessons include:
§ helping children to improve their confidence about singing and to explore what suits their voices.
§ helping children to learn how to prepare a song so that they can perform to the best of their ability.
§ singing different types of songs (repertoire) eg. character songs such as "Under the Sea" or "Hakuna Matata" as well as traditional folk songs such as Scarborough Fair
§ learning to sing in harmony, which is a great help for children who haven't done this before, as it helps them to develop their ability in this area.
§ improving diction so that lyrics are clear when sung
§ preparing children for school productions - with terrific results!
§ preparing children for auditions
Group Activities: I'm also very happy to teach groups of children, either on an ongoing basis or as a one-off workshop. For example, I'm happy to come into school, or to your child's birthday party and run a fun singing and/or performance workshop (click on the children's parties link for more details)
If you'd like to ring me and discuss your needs or even if you're not sure what would be suitable, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Parents' Comments:
Sharon's highly professional but friendly approach has been a major contribution to improving our daughter's singing skills to a significantly higher standard and building her overall confidence"
Dr Malcolm and Jennifer Parry, Godalming
Sharon helped our daughter to prepare for her part in her school production. I didn't hold out much hope to be honest, because my daughter is not what you'd call a natural singer. When it came to the performances, I was amazed. Sophie was confident and relaxed and sounded better than I could have thought possible. I can thoroughly recommend her and the children love her!

I've told all my friends about Sharon Duggan. She's such a talented teacher and she has a way with the children. We had her over to do a workshop with the children as a birthday surprise and they loved it.
P Burgess, Godalming
Sharon was fantastic. She really put herself out helping Nick with his GCSE performance. He lacked confidence and also didn't really know what songs to choose. Sharon sorted it all out and he sailed through. Jackie Myers, Wonersh
