Lessons are billed on a termly basis, but we’re happy to offer a one-off trial lesson. This gives you the chance to meet the tutor, discuss your goals, and get a feel for what you’ll gain from our singing lessons before committing to a full term.

End of Term Gigs
In addition to your weekly lessons, HCM vocal students are invited to participate in our end-of-term gigs and showcases. These events offer invaluable experience performing live in front of an audience, helping students build confidence and stage presence, as well as being a great opportunity for friends and family to see the progress made throughout term.
Exams and Awards
At HCM, we encourage students to take graded instrument exams as they provide a structured way to measure progress. Our tutors are experienced in preparing students for RSL, Trinity, and ABRSM exams from beginner to Grade 8. These exams not only track improvement but also help students develop poise in performance—a skill that carries over into many areas of life. For teenage students, vocal lessons can complement activities like GCSE Music or Duke of Edinburgh Award schemes.
As an official exam centre for both Trinity and RSL, we provide our students the opportunity to take their graded vocal exams on-site, in a familiar and welcoming setting.
