Sandra Pehrsson School of Music

Introduction: I am a professional singer, musician and singing, performing and piano teacher with 20 years of experience in teaching students of all ages, from 3 to 90 years old, in three different countries. Teaching is my passion, and I am dedicated to help my students develop and find their musical talent and voice and to build their confidence within themselves. I believe that everyone can learn how to sing and play instruments. Music is powerful, inspiring and healing, and I will help you to accomplish your goals, whether it is to be able to sing karaoke or if you want to get to a higher level, like developing a career in music. I will help you to build your confidence, develop and increase your vocal range and the quality of the tone of your voice, teach you vocal technique so you never strain or hurt your voice while singing, teach you how to work with musicians and how to perform on stage. I will help you in strengthening your breathing and support. If you want to learn how to sing and play the piano at the same time, I can combine the lessons to both piano and voice. I teach all genres of music, including pop, jazz, rock, county, R&B, and classical if requested. My key teaching skills are as follows: * Teaching of vocal technique and vocal exercises * Development of vocal range and voice quality * Piano instruction * Piano accompaniment of students * Inquiry-based teaching * Development of musicianship and performance skills * Development of great breathing technique and strong breath control * Leading and conducting of bands and choirs * Written evaluation of student progress * Creation of individualized, engaging, and goal-directed lesson plans * Student motivation * Teaching the importance of integrating music theory and vocal practice * Confidence building and individual style encouragement * Organization of student performances * Help in preparing students for auditions and performance As a professional singer and musician, I have performed in Sweden, England and in the USA at many different venues and with many different bands and groups, especially as a jazz and pop singer. I also write my own music and work as a singer/songwriter. In addition, I work as a studio-session singer for recording artists. I am very passionate about sharing my love for music and helping my students accomplish their goals. I am a very positive and happy person, and I promise that you will have a good and inspiring time learning, making music and accomplishing your dreams and goals, all at the same time!
