About René
I'm a fully qualified singing teacher, specialising in vocal health and technique.
I have been teaching singing for 15 years now, both in private 1-1 sessions and in groups. Each summer I teach at The Music Makers summer music courses in Nottingham aimed at children aged 5-15. Through my operatic work I often teach singing workshops and more focused opera workshops. In these we explore the characters, themes and music of a specific opera, update it and see how the opera is still relevant to modern life, and then teaching some extracts of the work to the group.
I have extensive experience in choral singing having been a Canterbury Cathedral chorister, a member of the National Youth Choir of Great Britain, a scholar at St Barnabas' Cathedral Nottingham and having conducted and directed Viva Voce Chamber Choir.
Whilst in Nottingham I trained with Richard Howarth and at the Royal Academy of Music with international tenor, Ryland Davies and in demand vocal coach, Audrey Hyland. Whilst training for my LRAM singing teacher status I studied with Glenville Hargreaves and had vocal health lectures from specialists in a Harley Street clinic.
I have an Enhanced DBS Certificate with a Date of Issue: 23 December 2023.

I am a friendly, experienced musician and professional singer who enjoys teaching. Whether you are an enthusiastic beginner or an experienced singer I can provide extensive advice and experience whilst having plenty of fun!
I teach classical singing and my methods are grounded in classical technique, promoting a healthy approach to singing. I teach musical theatre and popular music at the pupil's request if that is their desired style, but encourage a classical grounding which is both relevant and applicable to any style of singing.
I have experience teaching all ages and levels for singing, from enthusiastic beginners to experienced choral/solo singers who wish to brush up on their technique/repertoire before concerts or auditions. I prepare my students for ABRSM or Trinity exams and have a 100% pass rate. This all depends on the student's wishes and goals and is something we would discuss with pupil or parent in our approach to lessons.
I graduated from the The University of Nottingham with a BA (Hons) in Music and continued my vocal studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London where I received a Distinction for my MA in Vocal Studies and also received my LRAM (Licentiate of the Royal Academy of Music) singing teaching qualification.
Further Musical Qualifications:
Grade 8 singing - Distinction, Grade 8 saxophone - Merit, Grade 7 violin and viola - Merit, Grade 6 piano, Grade 5 theory & A Level Music.
I am currently only taking on pupils to teach at my home in Beckenham (Bromley), London. This would be most suitable for pupils living in Beckenham, Penge, Crystal Palace, Sydenham, Anerley, Forest Hill and Elmers End.
I am currently available for teaching on Tuesday and Wednesdays 9-3pm.
Do contact me to check availability and the timetabling of regular lessons.
The most important thing for everyone is to enjoy your music!

Perfect! Amazing first lesson, being back to music after so many years I was nervous and unsure but René put me at easy straight away. Very knowledgeable and thorough. I enjoyed his teaching methods and look forward to continuing my lessons. Thank you so much.
