About
I am Gloria, a certified Musicologist, full-time Musician, Music Educator, Professional Singer and Violinist.
Gloria has conducted lessons on voice, violin, theory of music, etc for students both online and on-site for the past 8+ years and has tutored students of all ages and levels. Due to her professional music practice of 11+ years, she has since been a highly sought after teacher of music and performer both nationally and internationally.
She has helped over 100+ students start up a career path in music and it has been all round progress for them through out their musical journey.
In the bid of trying to reach more people through music, she founded a music brand- Gloriastyle Music in the year 2021 to connect the world through music.
Gloria is a seasoned performer and a passionate teacher that enjoys passing knowledge to her students and music minds alike.
Professional and well-structured voice lessons as well as teaching in practice for singers and violinist (beginners, intermediate, and expert) who wish to bring the best out of their voices/instrument (violin).
I personally love to hear first from my students. My first lesson usually would kick-start on an 'introductory note' (A discuss, question and answer section) such as:
1. Asking my students if they have had any previous formal vocal or violin experience(s) before. If yes, they speak about their experience(s). (This helps in the placement of a student in a particular level).
2. Style of vocal music the student will want to learn. Etc... This part aims to get the student relaxed and ready for what comes after.
3. Student's goals for the lesson
4. Student sings me a song
5. Vocal test run
6. What the student should expect from the voice lesson moving forward
I progress to the second part of the lesson:
What the voice is?
Parts of the instrument.
Posture alignment and exercises. Etc.
Creating sound
Breathing
Body tension and jaw stress.
Vowels and consonants
Vocal techniques...
During lessons and at the end of every lesson, students are allowed the time to ask questions thereby making sure they have a great understanding of the lesson.
