Singing Lessons with Yumi
Hello, I'm Yumi, a dedicated singing instructor with over a decade of experience. My expertise lies in preparing students for the ABRSM and Trinity Grades.
Originally based in London, where I earned my university degree and taught for 12 years, I've since moved to Tamworth. Now, I offer personalised lessons in both piano and singing from my home studio and a local church.
What Do I Teach?

Disney Songs
I incorporate a variety of Disney songs into my singing lessons because I've found that many children absolutely enjoy them. I strongly believe in training students with songs they already love, as it fosters a deeper connection to the music and enhances their overall learning experience. By integrating familiar Disney tunes, I not only make the lessons more enjoyable but also inspire and motivate my students to develop their vocal skills.

Musical Theatre Grades
I integrate a diverse selection of Musical Theatre Exam Grades into my singing lessons because I've noticed that many students have a genuine affinity for this genre. I firmly believe in nurturing students with songs they already love, as it cultivates a profound connection to the music and enriches their learning journey. Additionally, preparing for exams instills discipline and provides a structured framework for progress, ensuring that students develop essential skills while enjoying themselves. By incorporating familiar Musical Theatre Exam Grade pieces, I not only enhance the enjoyment of the lessons but also underscore the importance of structured assessment in achieving their musical goals.

Rock and Pop Grades
I incorporate a diverse repertoire of Rock and Pop songs into my singing lessons, alongside preparing students for exams, because I've observed that many students are passionate about these genres. I strongly believe in tailoring lessons to students' musical preferences, as it fosters a deeper connection to the material and enhances their overall learning experience. Additionally, integrating popular music into exam preparation not only makes the process more enjoyable but also helps students develop versatile skills that are applicable across various musical styles. By teaching Rock and Pop alongside exam material, I ensure that students receive a well-rounded musical education that aligns with their interests while also meeting the requirements for formal assessment.
