ABOUT ME
Hi! I am an actor and singer based in North London. I love new writing and musical theatre, and am currently an Associate Artist with Imaginality Productions.
I love teaching and have worked with students from all backgrounds, with all different abilities, confidence levels, and passions. I work a lot with students who struggle with anxiety, and do everything I can to be your biggest cheerleader, whilst still giving honest and productive feedback. Scroll down to find out more about my teaching and how we can work together to meet your goals.
I trained at the Royal Academy of Music where I got my Masters in Musical Theatre and LRAM Teaching Qualification. Before that I read Music at the University of York, and trained with the National Youth Theatre and National Youth Choir.
I hold an Enhanced DBS check and Chaperone License.
ONLINE COACHING
30 mins - £22 / 45 mins - £32 / 60 mins - £42
Online coaching takes place on Zoom or Skype, and where required will use backing tracks. I ask that all students bring one or two songs (or monologues) that we can work on in the session. Please outline what you would like to work on and when you would like your lesson(s) via the contact form.
You are welcome to voice record the sessions (I encourage it!) but just let me know when you do!
I hold the Licentiate of the Royal Academy of Music (LRAM with Distinction) which is a recognised qualification in independent music teaching.

TESTIMONIALS
"Emma is by far one of the nicest, most empowering, and understanding teachers I’ve ever had. She’s kind, patient and her teaching method is based on the student and their needs and talents, rather than going for a “strictly-by-the-book” approach. She’s absolutely brilliant! Emma is more than a teacher- she’s a friend, a mentor, and an inspiration!"
