What is actually stopping your voice from progressing?
Two singers can describe the same vocal problem and need entirely different adjustments. I listen for the cause in your technique, habits and music before deciding what to change.
We test the smallest useful adjustment inside a real song, while protecting the qualities that make your voice recognisably yours.
Live, private one-to-one coaching on Microsoft Teams for contemporary and popular singers aged 16 and over.
A symptom is not the same as its cause
A tight high note, a lost phrase or an unreliable range can look similar from the outside. The cause may lie in different habits, pressure or coordination for each singer.
I listen to what happens in your voice and in the music before choosing an adjustment. The work is individual: understand the cause, test a useful change, then apply it in the song that matters to you.
Diagnosis first
Before choosing an exercise or technique change, Matt looks for the cause behind the recurring difficulty.
Matt's individual judgement
Similar symptoms can have different causes. The next step is based on what is happening in your voice, not a preset method.
Tested in real music
We check whether an adjustment works in your song and helps preserve your recognisable sound.
Who this is for
Four very different starting points. The same approach.
New singers
You want a clear, honest starting point without being talked down to or pushed into a generic programme.
Developing singers
You can sing, but your range, consistency or confidence keeps breaking down. You feel stuck and want a real diagnosis.
Artists and performers
You need a voice that can survive pressure, performance and repertoire, without losing your own sound.
Professional project clients
You need focused support for a recording, performance, role, language or delivery brief. This is separate from standard lesson bookings.
What happens in a session
I listen to the voice as it is and identify the patterns that may be contributing to the difficulty.
I explain the cause and test a focused adjustment in context, then bring the work back into a real song.
The aim is useful, individual change without replacing what makes your voice sound like you.
Notes shaped around the lesson
Where the automated note service is used, Microsoft Teams transcription supports personalised lesson notes and a practice plan. Transcription is required for that service; recording is separate and optional. Materials may be held in Microsoft 365 and private lesson folders. See the Privacy Policy for details.
Begin with an individual assessment
The Consultation is controlled, gated diagnostic access to Matt Thompson's expertise. It identifies the principal vocal issue, assesses technical compatibility and establishes the most appropriate next action.
£25 for 30 minutes, live on Microsoft Teams. It includes an initial vocal assessment and recommendation and is not credited against another service.
For a focused issue, Private Vocal Coaching is £150 for one private 60-minute online session. A longer commitment is available through the individual ten-session Development Programme at £1,400 paid upfront.
Professional project work is separate and confidential. Make a Confidential Professional Enquiry, or review the service details and prices.
What singers say about working with Matt
I’ve gained so much more confidence in my voice, improved my technique, increasing my range and I genuinely look forward to every lesson.
His skills help you break down song structure and work on breathing techniques and vocal drills to improve your voice.
I had no prior experience in singing, and he very much put me at ease and helped build my confidence.
