"I have recently started singing voice training lessons with Rachael, who right from the start has put me at ease with her friendly; kind, honest approach. Rachael keeps our lessons exciting, values & encourages student contribution in song selection; is patient, relaxed and flexible in her approach & gives constructive criticism in a way that promotes selfbelief in individual ability & confidence!

I am loving my lessons & always look forward to my weekly sessions! Since starting I've gained a whole set of new skills when it comes to singing, as well as gaining a better understanding of voice control, projection & how best to achieve this- but most importantly have grown in confidence & would 100% recommend Rachael to anyone who's interested in learning to sing!"

"I am happy to have the opportunity to say how much I enjoy my sessions with Rachael. I have learnt a lot about singing in a relaxed and enjoyable way. I'm learning to play the guitar and wanted some quidance on singing and playing, and our sessions have helped me a lot. She listens and gives honest and helpful feedback but in a non judgemental way, which is exactly what I was needing to help build my confidence. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to anyone who is wanting to improve their singing and musical abilities, but also have a relaxed and fun hour of singing as well."
- Irene

In this year's training. I have improved a lot. especially in my ability to control the belt. Shoulders work and back power are very useful for me. Now I feel like I'm getting more and more familiar with voice control. Recently, my new task is to sing with the performance practice of characters and stories. At the same time, I also need to read more lyrics and get used to the English pronunciation of musical songs.

I love working with Rachael because she is organised and when you want her to do particular things as a backing vocalist she is polite and productive and she always does a great job.

I have been writing, recording and producing music for many years and for many clients requiring differing products across many different styles. Good session singers can quickly turn an OK product into an exceptional one. Being a good session singer isn't just about being technical or a good sight-reader. It is about understanding what is required, resonating with the client and having the musical ability and agility to be flexible, collaborative and inspirational. I have worked with Rachael on many occasions. Her professional approach, dedication and attention to detail make her an ideal choice for any project. Rachael has a wide vocal range with excellent control over timbre and pitch. Her ear for timing, harmony and blend enable simple and effective layering in real time, which is a massive bonus when track building. Neil Kavanagh - writer and producer.
