Education

Lara simply loves teaching because it is a profession in which you constantly challenge what you know, and if given the right tools, you can help make a difference to those eager to learn.  Based on her extensive training at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama together with years of experienced as a performing and recording artist , she offered a truly unique session to all. She has taught as Principal Singing teacher and workshop leader for City Academy, Hackney Community Choir, Songlines Choir, Leeds Conservatoire and more.

Lara is a fantastic singer musician and teacher! She knows instinctively how to listen to your needs, challenge you when needed and is a constant source of inspiration and information. I have been singing with Lara for a while and she has been such a huge help in overcoming low confidence and vulnerability around singing. She has also been great to work with as a songwriter. Highly recommend!

Lara is the most wonderful singing teacher and I thoroughly look forward to our lessons each week.  She has a real talent for demystifying musical theory which is great for someone like me who lacks background in that area.
Lara brings empathy and emotion to every class, which has made me feel connected to the songs I’m learning. This brings me so much joy , not only in class but when I am practicing alone.  Lara is patient and intuitive and this even translates over zoom.  I had reservations abouts online classes but there are actually so many benefits – such as being able to record the classes to refer back and for seeing my voice improve week on week.  The lessons are very personalised. In our first class we discussed my objectives.  Not only has Lara helped me achieve my goals,  she has identified and set new ones and pushed me in challenging and rewarding ways. I can’t understate how much I gain from my lessons with Lara. It’s been fantastic for my mental and physical health and my confidence in my voice has grown so much.

Working with Lara has been a pleasure from the beginning. She has been nothing but professional, encouraging, and personable with me - she is evidently talented and knows how to bring the best out of her students and I've seen a massive improvement in myself (skills and confidence-wise) since meeting with her. She takes a vested interest in the development and personal well being of those she teaches and I'm pleased to say I've gained both and long term teacher and friend.

"Working with Lara on my song was a real transformative experience!
I was preparing for a studio recording and had three vocal sessions with her. Not only did she help me fully open up my voice but also created a space where singing became fun, joyful and explorative! I built up more confidence with her, and feel very grateful about it.
She is professional, technical, fun and really focusses on your inner potentials, she made me feel at ease with deeper aspects of my voice. 
If you have the chance to get a singing session with Lara, go for it! You are going to discover more about yourself! She has made me pass a milestone in my development as a singer."
