"Laura's lessons are motivating, challenging, energising, but most importantly filled with laughter. She carefully built our confidence and singing skills with her expertise and patience. Monday nights have been uplifting!

"It was great to work with Laura! She's a great, supportive teacher, and the lessons are great fun! I feel like I've learned a huge amount in a short space of time, and her attention to detail is exceptional. Her breadth of experience, from choral and classical to jazz work, lends well to a range of style. Laura is great at adapting her approach to what YOU want to work on, and makes you feel very comfortable to explore your voice in different ways. Thank you very much Laura!"
