Information About Ching Ho - Kingston upon Thames teacher

Personal Description:

The world of singing education is filled with a multitude of terms and jargon, such as chest voice, mixed voice, head voice, falsetto, resonance, twang, breath support, mask, and more. While experienced teachers frequently use these terms, they can be overwhelming and confusing for some singers.

As a singer and educator, I have spent countless hours researching and experimenting with different methodologies to find the best voice-building techniques.

The criteria for the best methodology for me were that it should:

- Directly and effectively train the voice without requiring an understanding of complicated terminology
- Cause no harm to the voice
- Be easy to learn and accessible for everyone
- Be able to be practiced anytime and anywhere
- Result in genuine improvement, rather than just requiring large financial investment.

After much effort and research, I am confident that I have found the best singing and voice-building methodology in the world for all aspiring learners!

The voice training methodology we use is the Mr. Voice method, founded by Mr. Chan in Taiwan. With these exercises, you can expect to see improvement in your voice from the very first lesson! They are safe, easy to learn, and can be practiced anytime and anywhere.

Our focus is on directly and effectively training your vocal muscles without confusing terminology. Our approach guarantees no harm, and you do not need to worry about complicated breathing exercises. Instead, we have exercises to rebalance your air flow and maintain long-term vocal health.

Our goal is to help you strengthen your voice, find your style, and build confidence through music. We believe everyone deserves the love of music and should not be limited by others' opinions. Let's work together to bring out the best in your voice!

So come and join us! You will get the guidance and support you need to take your singing or speaking skills to the next level!

Tutoring Approach:

In my lessons, you will always be encouraged to be YOU.
It is because you are unique and you are great!
I do not want you to be someone else. I do not want you to sing like other singers, no matter how good they are.
I know you have the best voice, in your world.
And I got the best voice, in my world.
So why you have to sing like others if you are THE BEST?
You are the best when you being YOU!

Respect and love your voice with me.
You will then finally be free from judgement and criticism.
Your mind, soul and body will once again have fun with and enjoy music.

Singing was never an impressions or high pitch competition/ battle.
It is just the contemporary and commercial world tries to hard-shape what music is.
Music is free.
Music is fair and kind to everyone.
Music will not judge.

In my lessons, enjoying music with you is always my first priority.
Love you voice, have fun with singing and enjoy music with me!
