Individual Singing tuition
The voice is a musical instrument, just like the piano or guitar - so if you’re really interested in developing good vocal technique, then you need individual tuition - groups won’t do this for you - and you will need to practise!
Sharon is an experienced singing teacher with a sound classical training, but also able to expertly teach a diverse range of musical styles, ranging from rock, pop, r’n’b to folk, musical theatre and classical singing. She is also experienced at helping students prepare for performances as part of their GCSE music.
“I really enjoy my individual singing lessons with Sharon, she provides a very comfortable atmosphere for developing my voice. Sharon has also helped me to become more confident in my overall performance, I no longer feel like a rabbit in the headlights whilst on stage” Emma Bamford
"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

I’ve had singing lessons with a few teachers over the years, and I can honestly say that I’ve learned and improved more in the past six months with Sharon than I ever did with other teachers. She knows her stuff!” Sarah Davies
“As far as I’m concerned, the combination of a classical training and working as a session singer/contemporary singer, set Sharon apart as a teacher. I’ve gained so much confidence, and I now understand why I had problems with technique and am working to overcome them. Plus, I’ve never had a question she wasn’t able to answer fully.” David Johnston

PLEASE NOTE: it is inadvisable to give vocal training to children under the age of 14 years, as vocal training involves the development of muscles - so just like 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. For more information on what comprises good and bad vocal training, please click here
So what is available for children? While Sharon does not give vocal training to children (see why above), she is more than happy to help children enjoy singing in a number of fun ways. Click here for more info
Individual Performance Tuition
Performance is an integral part of singing, and some students just want to come to prepare for a particular performance or audition. Sharon is also happy to help children to develop their performance skills and has helped many to sing solos to a much higher standard in school concerts and productions as well as helping adult students with their own performance projects. She also provides many performance opportunities for her students, click here for details
