Simon D'Aquino Piano Vocal Studio

Starting singing lessons rather late in life (and quite nervously) -at 52- I'm so glad I went to Simon! So patient, encouraging, and he tailors his approach to your individual pace and needs. It's never too late to learn to sing, and such positive experiences are even more valuable to your well-being than the skills or sounds Simon helps you achieve. I followed up by starting piano lessons at 56....Why not?

Simon is an extremely knowledgeable and patient teacher. He can tailor his style to suit any student level and this allows such an enjoyable but rewarding lesson.nI've had the pleasure of long-term lessons from Simon in both Piano and Voice and I can confidently say he is one of the best teachers I've ever had as a lifelong musician.nHis approach is remarkable, I continue to be shocked just when I believe I can't play something due to difficulty, Simon's gentle encouragement nudges me into trying and low and behold his instruction has built a foundation without me realising and I'm able to play something that felt out of my grasp just moments before.nnIn summary Simon is an outstanding musician and an even better teacher. I am eternally grateful for all his help in becoming the musician I am today.

Simon is a very kind and encouraging singing teacher, with a deep knowledge of his craft and flexibility in the techniques he has for bringing out the best in your voice.

I have been getting singing lessons from Simon for over a year now, and he is the best! I was a complete beginner when I first started seeing him, and have come so far since then. Simon has all of the qualities of a fantastic teacher; he is knowledgeable and passionate, patient, encouraging, kind, has a good sense of humour, and is very good at explaining things in an easy-to-understand way. I would highly recommend Simon D'Aquino Piano Vocal Studio to anyone of any demographic.

Being someone who can correctly be called a “mature age student”, I was very nervous about beginning singing lessons. Simon’s easy going manner immediately put me at ease. I was dubious about reaching the heights that Simon believed I was capable off, however just over a year later I’m amazed at what my voice can now do. He explains the mechanics of singing in an easy to understand way, which greatly enhances the practical outcome. I’m excited to see how far I can go. Highly recommend.
