Why lessons for girls?
Because young girls love to sing, and I love to use that passion to build their confidence and self-belief before or as they navigate those tough tween years.
Judy’s techniques and approach has taken our daughter’s singing voice and confidence to a whole new level.

FAQ’s
Are online lessons really as good as in-person lessons?
Absolutely! To young people, life online is completely normal and commonplace. They are way more comfortable than most of us older folks with the Zoom experience. Meanwhile, I can hear, see, and address what they are doing just the way I can when we’re standing in the same room. Yet, you don’t have to fit drive- and wait-time into your busy schedule!
What are lessons like?
For a young student, singing lessons have two main components. First is planting the seeds of good technique, without squashing her passion or making her think too much. The second is creating experiences that gently nudge her beyond her comfort zone, like recording herself performing or creating a Zoom performance for friends and family members.
What if I'm not sure my daughter has the natural talent to be a singer?
There are those who exhibit naturally advanced skills at a young age, but most of us mere mortals have to develop our abilities over time. There is just no telling where time spent on a passion can lead a person. Meanwhile, there are countless other benefits to singing lessons that have nothing to do with being a professional singer, including confidence-building and developing a positive, life-long creative outlet.
How often do lessons happen?
Once a week is the most common frequency. Some students opt for two lessons every week, which greatly speeds up progress. Anything less than once a week invariably leads to momentum problems and inhibits success.
What is your teaching philosophy?
You child is a natural learner, as long as I don’t get in her way. My role is to guide her progress, acknowledge her wins, and help her see the value in what she can accomplish.
What is your training and experience?
My degrees are in music composition. When I was in my thirties, and I discovered that the athlete mentality was the key to success as a singer, I completed a certification course in modern vocal technique (2007) and added vocal coaching to my list of teaching services. I was already a gigging singer and keyboardist at that point, and have been most of my adult life.
