Jill Samycia has taught private voice and piano lessons for the past 10 years, and currently teaches from her home in Vancouver, BC. She not only holds her Grade 10 Royal Conservatory of Music (classical piano), but also two Diplomas from Grant MacEwan College, in Theatre Arts and Vocal Performance. She has been trained in vocal pedagogy (including teaching young voices), private studio instruction, movement, diction, and repertoire.
Jill has taught students aged 5 - 75. Levels of ability range from students with no previous experience to students interested in pursuing music as a career. No two lessons in the studio are alike as Jill adapts to each student’s particular style of learning. Students will also have the advantage of learning on a Grand Piano, with an endless amount of repertoire at their finger tips. Visual, aural and kin-aesthetic approaches are used to teach breath management, efficient phonation (singing) and developing resonance and musicianship. Repertoire is assigned according to the student’s interests as appropriate to the level of vocal development.
"I want people to be touched and to feel something deep within. Performing and teaching music is not my main purpose. If children hear music from the day they are born and learn to play it, they develop sensitivity, discipline, and endurance. They get a beautiful heart! Music produces a kind of pleasure which human nature cannot do without."
