Education, Skills & Experience

Education

Jemma has completed all grades of Rockschool and graduated with a Diploma of Music Performance from RSL Awards (London) in 2016. In 2019, she became only the third person in the state to complete the Licentiate in Music Performance (Vocal). Jemma also trained at The Institute of Contemporary Music Performance in London in 2015 and participated in an intensive music training program in the U.K. in 2017, being one of only two Australians selected.  

Skills and Experience

Jemma puts huge emphasis on creating a creative and nurturing environment whilst still pushing her students to reach their full potential. She has developed her own style of teaching over the last 9 years, having experience teaching all ages and ranges of ability, finding that teaching vocal technique through songs that they want to learn and have vested interest in, growing and developing their own individual voice/sound, has provided the best and most consistent outcomes.
