Tutoring Approach:

Singing/Drama:
I have experience in workshop leadership and singing teaching with people of all ages, both individually and in groups. I am proficient in all styles of singing and am a big believer in interpreting song as well as the technical side of voice use. I can help singers to develop all different aspects of the voice: technique, method, style, repertoire and background information. This increases the possibilities for various types of work and at the same time gives the singer the chance to develop endlessly. Moreover, he or she can discover what suits him/her and what doesn't. It is important to have one's own ideas based on good arguments and yet still remain open to new ideas and experiences.
I fact, the same goes for drama. I feel that my energetic and vibrant personality lends itself perfectly to inspiring others in the industry about which I am so passionate!

English as a foreign language:
I am a native Dutch speaker but trilingual with English and Flemish and have a strong command of French and German. My interpersonal skills enhanced by my acting allow me to tailor my work to the needs of each individual client. And equally allow me to feel at home with customers of 6 or 66. Having ben through the process of learning English as a foreign language myself I know what is neccesary to master it and also the sense of satisfaction when you do!
