Tutor Mr. Q Going

With over 30 years of professional entertaining experience and currently a resident entertainer at Crown Perth, I have seen, heard, and learned from the best in the business and am excited to have the opportunity to pass on this experience as the Joseph Banks Secondary College Vocal Extension tutor.

It is my profound pleasure to work with students in a live studio setting, and to instill in them the belief they need to expand and extend themselves beyond the raw talent they have. Additionally for them to strive to achieve greatness within themselves, and after that, be a singer of the highest professional standard.
