Paul helped me, not only with my singing and technique, but also with my confidence. His support 100% got me into Arts Educational (with a full scholarship), Urdang and Bird. Forever grateful.
Ieva Vaicaityte
I feel incredibly grateful to have Paul as my singing teacher. Every singing lesson is filled with encouragement, useful tips, and valuable vocal techniques. Paul has helped me gain a lot of confidence in my vocal abilities and is helping me reach my full potential as a singer.
Darcey Paris George
Paul's zest for music is infectious and it's because of him that I passed Grade 8 Classical Singing with Distinction at 14, my diploma (also with Distinction) aged 16 and was awarded an entrance scholarship to study singing at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama at 17. He truly is an inspirational teacher.
Eve Carter
As a dancer wanting to study a musical theatre degree, I knew that I would need to improve my singing. Having singing lessons with Paul allowed me to be accepted at multiple colleges, grow in confidence and understand how my voice works. This has helped me massively as I start my training at Wilkes Academy.
Evie Jones
I am thankful to Paul for making me the confident singer I am today. I passed my Grade 8 and diploma in Musical Theatre with Distinction thanks to him. Anyone who has lessons with Paul will flourish very quickly.
