Singing lessons for adults and kids with immediate effect. Private and groups.

Or you tried to record your own song idea and could not, because your recording was totally different from what you hear in your head?
Or your mom or friend told you that you tone deaf and better not to sing at all?
Or maybe you tried to follow YouTube teachers but still stay at the same point vocally?
Then I might help you at online vocal lessons or offline if you live in Rotterdam.

- Actually CAN hear music,
- CAN sing
- Can write your song
- You CAN understand better Youtube gurus and apply their tips to your voice.
At lessons I help people to understand how exactly THEIR voice works, what kind of potential in it, how to find own manner and sound, how to sing in a healthy way. How to reach that high notes, extend the range, how to make low notes deeper and richer.
It's going to be fun and productive. Already for the first 10 lessons you will be able to hear the significant progress.
Lessons in ZOOM or offline after 3rd March in Rotterdam.

Extra information

At the first lesson I will ask you to sing the piece of your favourite song and describe how you see your problem and I will give the honest reflection to the actual situation with your voice.
I am not promising fast results, but I promise noticeable results already at the first lesson.

About Me

Kateryna Vinitsky - voice coach, singer, songwriter, producer.
Owner of Singing Birds Vocal Studio in Rotterdam
Main direction: healthy voice building for singers and public speakers, taking off all mental and muscle blocks for better voice and stage performance.
Techniques: belcanto, Complete voice technique, speech level, yoga breathing for stronger voice.
Vocal: pop, musical, electronic dance vocals, backing vocals and its harmonization, public speeches.
As a teacher who came from Ukraine and have already learnt the Dutch way of lessons, I combine in my voice lessons a strong goal motivation, clear and understandable explanation and "gezellige" time.
My main specialization, voices after mechanical, or mental damaging processes.
If you:
Hear all the time “you can’t sing;
Lost your voice, because of screaming;
Lost your voice because of non professional voice education;
Lost your voice due to illness;
Lost your voice or can't make it better due to mental blocks;
Afraid to be at the stage and perform (or speak on public);
You are from 6 to 106 years old.
Then I might help you using my own methods.
I use different explanation for different people and situations and work with the problem until it solved together with deep muscle relaxation and mental freedom.
With kids, we learn voice through games.
We would make a plan for your vocal lessons based on your wishes, and goals.
Maybe you would like to make a specific cover song or your own, but do not know where to begin, or you would like to find your voice from the beginning or recover it? Then we will find together your true goal and work on it.
But it does not mean, that your lessons will be boring like one routine. We will have lots of fun, so come with comfortable clothes and shoes to get your own voice freedom.

Classical singing for beginners, intermediate students
I have had the opportunities to teach adult and children students throughout these few years, in my home country and here in the Netherlands. While I have always been positive and active in searching solutions with the students, I often expect students to be curious and persistent in the process, so as to have an optimal progress. For adult students, the lesson will be 60 minutes; while for children, it will be around 30 minutes. For beginning/ intermediate amateur singers that have basic knowledge of reading music. About myself: graduated cum laude in 2020 at Codarts Rotterdam from the Master of Music (Classical Singing. Active performer in the field as concert soloist and choir singer. Recent award winner at an international singing competition in Germany.

Ricardo
Singing (Classical and Contemporary), QTS certified Teacher
Hello, my name is Ricardo and I'm a Portuguese professional opera singer and singing teacher based in London. I trained at the University of Aveiro (2010; BMus & MEdu Vocal Performance and Tuition w/ Distinction) and at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama (2011; MMus in Performance w/ Merit). I'm a certified singing teacher and would love to help you! I teach singing to any age range and in a variety of styles: Classical, Contemporary/Musical Theatre. I teach either at my home in Wimbledon or at the student's home. I'm happy to travel within the London metropolitan area but will adjust the price of the lessons according to the travel costs I incur. My schedule is very flexible and the lessons are to be arranged with the student on a weekly basis. My singing students will be prepared to undertake any endeavour they want to in the music world: I can prepare them to sing for fun for family gatherings, Conservatoire access, ABRSM exams or to sing professionally. I've also had great success with Skype/Facetime singing lessons. These are charged at the same price as live lessons and the date and time are to be arranged between me and the student. My Message to you: My singing teaching is based in objective physical information which you can replicate, memorise and follow. My main goal is to help you build a healthy muscle memory for singing which you can then put to the service of Art. I believe a great technical foundation is at the core of Artistic Creation and a Vocal Technique is the toolbox from where you draw what you need in order to express yourself. Having built my own voice from scratch, I know how to put the puzzle of Singing together and will support you to achieve the same. I'm an honest supportive teacher and I will make sure we enjoy our time working together.

Public Speaking for Kids (18 years and below)- tailor made classes based on student's age and background
If you’re looking to help your child feel comfortable and confident speaking in front of others, my public speaking program is designed just for that. Drawing on my experience in Model United Nations and student leadership, I focus on helping kids speak naturally and authentically, rather than turning this into a grammar class. Our sessions emphasize clear, organic communication—so kids learn to organize their thoughts, speak with confidence, and engage an audience without feeling scripted. Through a mix of activities tailored to their age, we’ll practice speaking techniques that make public speaking feel more like a conversation, not a formal lecture. In addition to in-class activities like role-playing and group discussions, I’ll encourage them to practice outside the classroom too, whether through creating fun presentations or recording short talks. This class is all about developing a child’s unique voice and giving them the tools they need to speak comfortably and naturally in front of any group.

Antoine
Political Communication, Public Speaking and Presentation
The course module is adapted to the student. The summary will be communicated during the first lesson. I teach you to speak and/or write with an approach to the sciences of political communication, international relations, social and human sciences while convincing the person(s) in front of you with several negotiation techniques. ▪️ The techniques used will improve your level of confidence in your public presentations and storytelling. ▪️ Political communication is about the creation and exchange of ideas and opinions between citizens, public officials, political institutions, and related entities, such as the media. It includes discourse throughout the political process in local, state, national, and international political systems, as well as how political information can be exploited for political ends or to achieve political goals. People with a background in political communication may work in policy advice, foreign service, market research, public relations, journalism, and digital media, community organizing, lobbying, political campaigning, or other related fields. ▪️ BUT! in order to achieve your goal you must master public speaking which is the process or act of giving a speech in front of a live audience. Public speaking is generally understood to be formal, face to face, speaking from a single person to a group of listeners.

Communication Training (Professional / Personal) & Public Speaking
Whether your goal is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations, reflecting the involvement of the speaker in his speech. How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression? How to regain self-confidence and control the management of his emotions? Knowing how to speak in public is now a necessity for the company and in the company. From a personal point of view, this is a vector for better relationships and optimal messages. On the phone, in a meeting, in front of a client or a banker (...), your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating a match between the message received and the message sent. Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented and then put into practice for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering trust ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups. Controlled, the method allows: • improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's fluency (verbal-bodily), his public speaking and his sense of repartee and improvisation • to work on his ease, leadership, his NLP, his charisma, his creativity and to go towards a certain personal development, through a set of scenarios * improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitch, intention, flow) Completed by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management ...), role plays, improvisations and simulations will be set up. With the key words: pronunciation, rhetoric, verbal and non-verbal communication, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee, structured speech (...). The goal is not only to focus on verbal communication but also on nonverbal communication, so as to make the control of his body, his voice (...), a real and lasting strength. Depending on the interaction between the trainer - coach and the one who consults, there is no single way to operate: each type of session depends on the needs and difficulties of each. In all cases, it is very often a question, while adapting to your own needs and after having precisely diagnosed your desired objective and the blockages encountered, to combine the theory (the bases of the studied concept, for example NLP / information asymmetry / the "how to say no" / the tools of non-verbal communication or the application of kinaesthesia) and its application (through exercises and direct applications). For example, are discussed: - the fundamentals of public speaking: breathing, gaze and body language - diction and elocution: rhythm and range of your voice - management of your emotions and your emotional overflow (example: stress) - work on the body, to amplify your charisma and ensure consistency between your message and your body ... with the aim of: * Enhance your presentation and arouse interest by focusing on your strengths, your qualities ... your personality * Match the content and form of your message * Improve your charisma, your self-confidence and the benefits of your emotional intelligence Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology. PLACES - Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of live (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: notes that can be re-read on the chat). In this context, the videoconference sessions for which you asked me to seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place very optimally and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours! PROGRAM A la carte program: evaluated and adapted to each need.
