💬 What Students Are Saying

Excellent

Based on 28 reviews

Carolyn has a way bringing the best out of her students. Her method of teaching is a fusion of technique and practicality that is challenging as well as rewarding. On top of all of that, she is an absolute delight in lessons! Carolyn can help you realize the voice that you’ve had inside yourself all along, and she can teach you how to embrace your own voice in order to build up your confidence so you can share it. Carolyn sees music and singing as an act of storytelling. No better time than now to start listening to her stories and learn how to effectively tell your own.

Veronica VaVie

I loved working with Carolyn! She helped me harness my craft as a Singer and as a Songwriter. She knows your potential and ensures that you do your best to reach it. She also helped me with my first Stand Up Comedy set and with her help I was able to perform GREAT on stage.
Thanks Carolyn!

Myriam Forcier

A great teacher! I am on my sixth course with Carolyn, and it’s been fun, and I have been learning so much. She is a passionate singer and knows how to share that passion. I am always excited for my next lesson! Thank you Carolyn.

Wow!

Simply WOW!

As an entertainment photographer I was invited to shoot a couple of classes.

During my career as an entertainment photographer, I have seen hundreds of singers in bands, solo artist, spoken word as well as A Capella.

I have always admired someone stepping up in front of an audience, and have a deep appreciation for talent. After so many shows/performances, I believe I am good at spotting true talent over forced. Those who are at ease over those struggling to stay on stage.

Since being able to witness first hand what it takes to truly perform vocally, I am now so much more aware of the effort put in by performers since attending these classes. I have personally witnessed Carolyn’s coaching and suggestions, and have seen much improvement in those students who have taken to heart her lessons.

I believe Carolyn to be not only a thorough instructor, but sensitive and observing of each individual she works with, pinpointing exactly that which could use some work, while at the same time uplifting and praising that which the student already has.

Should I ever be so inclined to put my own voice on the line, it is good to know I have a friend in Carolyn who will most certainly help me bring out my best. Knowing my best may not be on par with other performers is not Carolyn’s approach, but magnifying and helping one realize each persons own ABILITY most certainly is. Helping these students truly feel comfortable with what they as individuals bring to the ‘table’ is of the greatest importance, in my opinion, based on what I have witnessed. Building confidence in a room with others present is certainly an amazing tool which Carolyn has truly mastered, and- it works!

Armen Matosyan

It is an amazing experience and Carolyn definitely knows what she does. Absolutely recommend to all those who want to learn to sing or enhance their voice at the professional level. She is absolutely fantastic both as a coach and as a person.
