Sam L. shares a true love for ukulele playing and music composition. Being exposed to music at a young age made her realize how much she wanted to pick up an instrument - and that was when she found her amazing singing talent, that led her to an opportunity to record with Korean-American actor/musician David Choi!
With 10 years of experience singing with the ukulele, Sam dedicates her time to music education. Specializing in Strum-and-Sing with a fun-loving energy, her students can expect to learn strumming techniques, with skills to master the accompaniment of their own vocals, all while smiling and laughing!

Halim
Guitar, Strum and Sing.
Halim was a young boy doing covers and singing for school events at 16 years old. As the years passed, that passion grew. Halim's vigour earned him opportunities to work with some of Singapore's renowned musicians like Hetty Sarlene and xx, just to name a few.
Halim has since went into music education - teaching students from primary to tertiary levels in government schools, conducting home-based lessons too.
Some of Halim's strengths include rock and pop vocals/guitar. As the lead singer of the band Nation One that plays the acoustic guitar, Halim aims to be a role model for his students not only as a teacher, but as a musician as well.
He is great at assessing and analysing his students' unique needs, keeping it clear-cut and simple when it comes to theory. He strongly believes music education can only be fun, and finds himself turning mundane practical lessons into fun-filled sessions!
