Jake Barlow Singing Lessons

Jake teaches Latin (as well as singing) and my son has had six years of tuition, latterly via SKYPE. This was totally self-motivated and he has really enjoyed the experience, now sitting the GCSE qualification. I highly recommend Jake for his professionalism, enthusiasm and subject expertise, apart from which he is a really nice person!

Jake has been teaching my daughter for the last 5 months or so leading up to her GCSE Latin which she chose as an additional subject at school and hadn't been feeling very confident with. Jake was particularly helpful in identifying and then teaching gaps in her knowledge, giving clear explanations and contextualising with his excellent knowledge of Roman history. Her confidence is now greatly improved, thank you Jake!

Have been having lessons with Jake since the start of 2019. His approach has been marvellous. I feel we have connected and he understands what I am attempting to achieve. I started classical singing lessons way back in my teens (1970's) when my voice was considerably different. I am now a "mature" lady who stopped singing over 10 years ago as I was extremely frustrated with my voice and could not do what I wanted to do with it. Lost my confidence as well! Since seeing Jake he has very patiently let me find my voice again. I am now comfortable to sing again and am accepting and enjoying my "different" voice. I am also regaining my confidence. His approach is informative and interesting. He also explains "why" and "how"! His knowledge of the physical side of using the voice is fascinating. I would thoroughly recommend Jake to anyone. Definitely 5 stars! Thanks Jake for allowing me to enjoy my music again.

Been learning with Jake for a couple of months now and Ive noticed a definite improvement in my singing. I sing in an indie band, and I would definitely recommend Jake for any genre, any type of singing and any age. Whats really great is he translates singing technique into really easy to understand terms, which makes it much easier to put into practice.
