Welcome to
Hello! I'm Louise Macphail and I'm a professional singing teacher offering personalized lessons to all ages and abilities in the London area. My lessons are easy to follow and you'll learn in the direction that you'd like to learn in.
Alongside teaching I am a professional singer with many years of experience performing live. I am often delighted to pass the knowledge and techniques I've learned to my students on a daily basis.
I have had experience in performing, writing and teaching in a huge selection of genres, however I specialize in singing Pop, Soul and RnB. I would be happy to show you how to sing your favourite songs.

I like to work with my students to create a personalized lesson plan based on their individual goals and learning needs. I find that my students love this approach as they can develop technique and strength whilst having fun and learning their favourite songs.
I have had experience preparing students for grade examinations or auditions, teaching them their favourite songs or even mentoring students for a professional career in music. Whatever your goals I am confident I can help you achieve your musical potential.
Lessons are pay-as-you-go, weekly, fortnightly or as suits you.
I teach students of all ages and abilities from 4+ how to get a lifetime of enjoyment from singing.
I’m a professional musician who specialises in guitar, music theory, singing, piano and songwriting. I play in an alternative / indie rock band but have experience playing both classical and jazz guitar.
I have a First Class Honours Degree in Music from Goldsmiths College, University of London. I am a touring musician and have recently been on UK tours supporting Wet Leg, The Big Moon, Dream Wife and Billy Nomates.
I pride myself in being a flexible and adaptive teacher in which I adapt lessons to the specific needs of the pupil and find ways to keep it fun and engaging.
I am passionate about teaching and I have experience of tutoring people of different ages with varying abilities, both in person and over zoom in preparation for formal music exams and also on a more casual basis.
I always ask my pupils to make me a playlist of their favourite songs and then from that I create lesson plans based around their interests in music.
For example, if the pupil wants to learn how to improvise, I would teach the pupil scales found in their chosen songs and we would examine how they are used in contexts they are familiar with.
With so many great music shops in London, here are a few of my favourites for local vocalists.

With a huge selection of in store and online stock you can find things here such as live and studio microphones, PA speakers and microphone stands, even home recording equipment.

Musicroom are located on London's famous Denmark Street. Here you can find a variety of sheet music for guitar/vocal and piano/vocal duets alongside choir, opera and the ABRSM and Rockschool grade syllabus books.
As a beginner once myself, I understand the dedication, practice and skills needed to become a world class singer and through my career I have developed a unique teaching style that will get you on the fast track to singing the way you have always dreamed of.
[email protected]Lessons are £25 for half-hour and £40 for an hour of tailored one-to-one singing lesson. Discounts available for packages and online lessons through Skype and Zoom.
I teach the majority of my lessons from a deciated studio in London, SE8 3PT alongside online and mobile tuition, meaning you can learn from the comfort of your own home if you wish.
I teach students of all ages and abilities from 4+ how to sing.
I recommend all my students take lessons weekly for maximum progress in a shorter period of time. However I am happy to acommodate fortnightly lessons.
At Singing Lessons London I operate a 48 hour cancellation policy. If you need to cancel a lesson that is fine, but please give me 48 hours notice. If a lesson is cancelled within 48 hours you will be charged the full lesson fee.
