Vocal Coach

We run a theatre school for disabled children in Harwich Tendring Essex. We are on the search for someone good at vocals and music reading to work alongside our music coach by being our vocal Coach. We would only be able to offer as a volunteer role but it’s very rewarding. The volunteering is every/Most Sunday from 9am-5pm. We are understanding on if you can’t make a Sunday just let us know at least 2 weeks in advance at a minimum unless you can’t make it due to sickness or emergency which we ask for just a heads up you can’t attend that day. 

You will be working alongside some SEND adults but teaching SEND children vocals. 

What skills do I need?

We hope you’ll still apply even if one skill applies to you as everyone will get viewed by our directors equally anyway.
