Caroline taught my daughter singing from Year 7 to Year 13. She provided her with a fabulous musical education, was a highly motivational teacher and helped to greatly build my daughter’s confidence.

Caroline’s teaching is energising, confidence-building and full of insight. She focuses on the detail in every lesson, right up until performance day, raising aspirations and providing unwavering and invaluable support. Her knowledge of public music examination practice and current thinking in these turbulent times is bang up-to-date.

Caroline is simply the best! I received the highest first in my final year at Goldsmiths, University of London for my final recital and simply could not have completed that journey without her. She helped me to find my own voice and connect my body, giving me the necessary tools to continue in my professional development and artistic craft. I can’t recommend her highly enough, especially if you’re someone who aims high and likes to do so with style.

Caroline gave my daughter individual singing lessons for seven years throughout her time at secondary school. During this time, she also conducted the school choir in which she gave individual pupils the chance to shine by taking on solo parts. My daughter thrived under Caroline's tuition and passed her grade 8 singing with merit. Caroline gave her the skills and tools to sing with confidence. She has since gone on to train as a musical theatre actress and has found that the lessons she learnt from Caroline have been invaluable.

Caroline sang one of my favourite pieces, A Time For Us, at my wedding ceremony. It was a magical and touching moment that made my wedding feel even more special. My guests were in awe of her stunning vocals and still comment on how moving her performance was to this day. Definitely one of the highlights of our wedding!

Caroline has taught my daughter singing, music theory and in school choirs for 6 years and in addition to helping her to pass exams and achieve high grades, Caroline has fostered a real love of music in my daughter. Caroline is creative and nurturing and when my daughter finds things challenging she always works hard to boost her confidence, whether this is when tackling tricky theory or with performance anxiety. I find Caroline a pleasure to deal with and cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have worked with Caroline for over thirty years in her capacity as both a performer and teacher. She has many notable performances to her name, including solo appearances at the Southbank Centre, the Barbican and the Royal Albert Hall. She is at home both performing and teaching, as well as conducting youth choirs. Her teaching focuses on the individual student, whatever age and ability and has a 100% success rate for exams.

When Caroline sings you get the complete package! Vocal quality, consummate musicianship, emotional and physical commitment wrap you up and transport you in a way few performers manage.
Caroline brings all her performance skill, experience and spontaneity to vocal teaching. Additionally, she has the ability to distil for each individual what is necessary for them to progress from their level, including a wide knowledge of a vast range of repertoire spanning many different styles.
I know her to be non-judgmental, completely free of any kind of bias; simply focused on bringing out the latent talent within each singing student, and clear and direct about the what the next step should be to fulfil their vocal and performance goals. Importantly, this includes awareness of physical blocks and struggles which often hinder the spontaneous free release of vocal energy.
She is that rare find: a transformative teacher and musician and choir trainer and, performer in her own right.

Caroline successfully tutored my daughter prior to a school music scholarship exam and performance - she was truly incredible! My daughter was offered the singing scholarship after only a handful of lessons. How amazing is that!

Studying voice with Caroline was transformative both vocally and personally. While other teachers focus purely on technique and are unwavering in doing so, Caroline always considered both my vocal journey and artistry in each lesson. Not only did her instruction lead me down new paths of understanding of my voice, but she encouraged me to love singing again (after previous negative experiences in the field). Coming from New York where singing always felt like a competition, studying with Caroline brought a breath of fresh air to my music-making; always providing a safe and productive space for growth. Thank you, Caroline !
