Bethan offers lessons in singing, songwriting, and music theory. These lessons are best suited for beginner and intermediate students of any age. Bethan does not provide exam training.
First lesson:
Initial lessons in all disciplines begin the same: chat about student's background knowledge, interests and goals for the sessions. A plan of action can then be made for the following sessions.
Singing:
It’s always helpful for students to prepare a song to sing so that Bethan can get an idea of what songs the student gravitates towards as well as how their voice sounds and how comfortable they are performing (if you can’t think of one, Happy Birthday will do!)
Lessons will usually be split between warm-ups/techniques and songs. Bethan believes that the best way to improve technique is to put it into practice.
Bethan has experience and knowledge of styles including:
Classical
Pop
Jazz
Musical Theatre
Songwriting:
These lessons are designed to give students the skills and confidence to further explore songwriting themselves.
Exercises will focus on various aspects of songwriting such as:
Song form
Rhythm
melody and harmony
Genre exploration
Lyric writing
Bethan works primarily with Logic Pro when songwriting. Students may prefer to work completely acoustically or choose to explore production methods using Logic Pro.
Music Theory:
Primarily for beginners. Learn to read and write music through exercises that explore:
The stave
Chords and intervals
Time signatures
Key signatures
Note values
