Teaching – Naomi Davies (née Hickman)

Providing high quality private tuition both face to face and online, I teach all vocal genres including classical, musical theatre and pop. I also teach the ABRSM and Trinity music theory syllabuses and my lessons are available for all ages and abilities.

I am passionate about unlocking each student’s unique vocal potential. I believe in building a strong technical foundation which will enable my students to sing in many different styles and become confident, versatile musicians. As a teacher, I think it is important to nurture young voices and to encourage individual musicality, instilling a passion for music to last a lifetime.

My lessons are tailored to each individual whether you wish to learn purely for fun or are interested in working towards exams, preparing for auditions or aiming for a career in music.

Past students have gone on to further their singing and acting careers at prestigious establishments such as Guildhall School of Music and Drama, Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, Bristol School of Acting and Bath Academy of Musical Theatre.

I am knowledgeable and experienced in all the major singing exam syllabuses and am very proud to have a 100% pass rate for my students.

I discovered my love for teaching during my undergraduate music degree at the University of Southampton when I was musical director of their pop and gospel choir, Jazzmanix 2012-13.

After graduating in 2013 I moved to Birmingham to further my performing and teaching career by undertaking a Master’s degree in Performance and Pedagogy at Birmingham Conservatoire. During this time, I began teaching at Birmingham Music School where I trained as a Yamaha Vocal Instructor. Since completing my Master's, I was able to continue building my teaching career with Beatbox Studio in Rugby as well as a number of schools in the West Midlands.

I am now based in North Somerset and have a busy and varied teaching week including private lessons, school visits and choir rehearsals.

I am the Musical Director for The Bleadon Belles, a fun and inclusive choir for members of the WI. We enjoy performing for local groups and care homes, and have 2 main concerts each year at Christmas and a summer tea party, often collaborating with other musical groups in North Somerset.

I am also the visiting vocal tutor at Churchill Academy and am one of the vocal tutors at Music Makers Academy, specialising in classical and musical theatre tuition.
