About Andy

I'm currently a final year English student at King's College London, where I have also taken classes in their Music department. Currently, alongside my studies, I am an English Literature GCSE and A Level tutor with another online tutoring company. I am proficient in sight reading and music theory, and I am experienced in piece composition as well as arranging music for different instruments and voices. I was classically trained in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for 7 years, and have extensive experience in both casual and formal/recital-style performance. I am currently the musical director for my a cappella group at King's, called The Rolling Tones. Over the past few years, the group has performed on Broadway and the West End, toured the west coast of the US, and was even invited to sing for the royal family of Bahrain! As musical director, I arrange and teach the repertoire to the group in our twice weekly rehearsals, which began in-person in September 2020, but sadly have been remotely conducted since October due to restrictions. We're a tightly knit group of friends who all share a passion for singing, and I simply could not have asked for a better group of people to teach! Each member has taught me something about my own style of teaching, as well as what works well when teaching remotely and what adaptations need to be made.

Hello! I'm Andy, and I'd love to help you increase your proficiency in areas like singing, sight-reading, and music theory. I offer supplementary guidance for more intermediate singers who would like some extra help in learning different pieces, as well as basic intro-level singing lessons for people who would like to improve their confidence as a vocalist but aren't sure where to start.

At the core of my teaching style is an understanding that each person is different - everyone's brain processes information in a different way. In order to help my tutees learn effectively, I open up the (virtual) classroom to be a collaborative space, and establish a mutual respect between myself and whoever I am teaching. I believe that if I do not actively demonstrate respect of my own tutees' capabilities, work and progress, I give my them little reason to engage with or value what I am teaching them. My main goal above all else is to pass on knowledge to people who are eager to learn, while taking their specific needs, goals, and learning style into account every step of the way (and making that as fun and rewarding as possible!)

I like to present the person I am teaching with options about how to approach something, ask them which one feels the most comfortable, and then work off of that going forward. For example, getting a grasp on rhythms can be challenging when you are not surrounded by other people and able to feel the beat of a piece, so I approach teaching these rhythms to members of my a cappella group in different ways depending on their learning style. Some find it makes more sense to them to clap out the rhythms a few times - with others, singing the phrase while staying on one note helps them get their heads around how the words slot into the rhythm, and where vowels form. Others just find it confusing to break the phrase down so much, and prefer to tap out the rhythm while they sing through the phrase, putting stresses where each note falls.

The bottom line is: everyone is different, and it's my job as a tutor to help people find out which learning style works best for them so that our sessions leave my tutees feeling rewarded, fulfilled, and more confident in their own abilities.
