About Joe

My name is Joe, and teaching singing is honestly the best job I've ever had.

I didn't always think I'd end up here. I spent years focused entirely on performing — chasing gigs, working on my own voice, figuring out my sound. And somewhere in the middle of all that, a friend asked me to help them prepare for an audition. One session turned into two, two turned into a regular thing, and before I knew it I had a handful of students and realized I was enjoying it more than almost anything else I was doing.

There's something that happens in the moment a student finally hits a note they've been struggling with, or gets through a whole song without second-guessing themselves, that I genuinely can't get anywhere else. It never gets old. Not even a little bit.

I've worked with people from all walks of life. Total beginners who were terrified to sing in front of another human being.

Performers who'd been at it for years but felt like something in their voice wasn't quite right. Teenagers preparing for something important. Adults who just always wanted to do this and finally decided to stop waiting. Every single one of them brought something different to the table, and every single one of them surprised themselves at some point.

That part — the surprise — is my favorite part of this whole thing.

I want to be upfront about how I work, because I think it matters.

I don't have a signature method I push everyone through. I don't believe in that. Voices are too different, people are too different, and honestly the reasons people want to sing are too different for one single approach to make sense across the board.

What I do instead is listen. Really listen — to your voice, to what you're telling me about your goals, to what's clearly working and what clearly isn't. And then we build something around that.

For some students that means going back to basics — breathing, posture, understanding how the voice actually works — because that foundation changes everything and it's worth taking the time to get it right. For others it means jumping straight into a song they care about and working outward from there, using it as the lens for everything we cover. For others still it means tackling something specific — nerves, range, consistency, tone — because that's the thing standing between them and where they want to be.

A few things that are true across all of my lessons:
You will never feel stupid or embarrassed here. Cracking, going off key, forgetting words — that's just what learning sounds like and there's nothing uncomfortable about it in my sessions.

I give feedback that's actually useful. Not just "that was great" when it wasn't, and not harsh for the sake of being direct. Just honest, specific, and always aimed at helping you move forward.

We work on music you connect with. Genre doesn't matter to me — what matters is that you care about what you're singing, because that's when real progress happens.

And we go at your pace. Some people move fast. Some need more time with certain things. Both are completely fine.

Singing is one of those things people talk themselves out of for years before they finally give it a shot. If you're reading this, maybe you're getting close to that moment. I'd love to be part of what comes next.

  • When did you first develop a passion for music and your favorite instrument?

    I developed my passion for music when I was young after my friend gave me his guitar because he was going on a trip. I started by playing few strings and then I quickly discovered that I could make a melody out of it. So I started by learning, and then my friend figured out that I was learning the guitar, so he was kind enough to keep it with me and from there my passion for music developed.
  • Is there a particular type of music or artist that you listen to on a loop without it driving you crazy?

    Classical music is usually something that I can listen to the whole day. I like to use classical music when I'm working and I'm focused. And it's also doesn't have lyrics, so it doesn't make me focus on the lyrics, but rather I can just enjoy the music.
  • Explain to us the most difficult or riveting course you could personally give to a student of music.

    Usually music theory is the hardest thing that I can teach for students because it's too boring and it's hard to see the big picture. And so I try to make my best to teach it in a fun way and make it clear for the students why I'm teaching the music theory. Because it can get tricky sometimes.
  • What do you think is the most complicated instrument to master and why?

    Depending on what complicated means, in terms of actual complication on the instrument side, violin is one of the hardest. But then on the music theory side, you could have guitar, that involves a lot of finger exercises and a lot of theory as well. But if I were to pick one, I would say violin.
  • What are your keys to success?

    I see that across students, that the most successful ones are the ones that stay consistent, dedicated and practice. So I attribute this as the key to success in music.
  • Name three musicians you dream of meeting in your favourite bar in the early hours of the morning. Explain why.

    Mozart, Gary Moore, Aden Foyer. The reason is that this makes the perfect combination of classical music on piano, electric guitar — Gary Moore is known for this, and Aden Foyer for random style songs
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to music or your days at music school.

    During music school, I once spent days trying to perfect a difficult section of a piece, and the harder I pushed, the more frustrated I became. My teacher told me to stop playing the entire piece and work on only a few notes at a very slow tempo. At first, I thought I was moving backwards, but that small change solved the problem. It taught me that patience and focused practice are often more effective than simply repeating something over and over.
  • What are the little touches that make you a Superprof in music?

    I think that you have to think in the POV of the student. If I understand something, doesn't mean the student understands it. I try to put myself in the student's shoes, ask for feedback, and continue from here
