Hear what group class students are saying

  • “Thanks Jessica! I found the Advanced Vocal Group challenging and rewarding (but always fun) and it was great to be amongst such talented vocalists/ musicians. I’ve learnt a lot!

    I did have vocal lessons quite a few years ago when I had to sing (and play bass) in a band, though I preferred harmonies and backing vocals. But what you have taught us made so much more sense! Thank you!

  • “What great experience learning to sing with Jessica in the All-Levels Adult Vocal Group. I had so much fun and it was so wholesome!

    I would definitely recommend this to group to anyone who wants to learn to sing; Jessica explains everything so well and brings such positivity, light and energy to the class!”

    — Nina

  • “I have been in Jessica’s All-Levels Adult Vocal Group for 6 months and it’s been so fun meeting and singing with different age groups while trying to master the technical aspects of using the voice. Jessica is encouraging and an experienced teacher and vocalist.

    Thank you so much for making learning to sing such a joyful event!”
