  If you can speak, you can sing. Girls start by joining in fun performing arts based activities and before long develop their skills in performing and confidence in presenting themselves to others.

In my current position I act as a Senior Tutor I mentor tutors of junior girls; observing classes, providing feedback and professional development.
