She goes on to employ a wide range of techniques from Indian, Classical and Contemporary singing to ensure a well-rounded development of the voice. Would recommend and use again.”

“I cannot explain how much my voice has developed and improved. I feel now I have the confidence to perform and the ability to control my voice (still a work in progress though) and I would recommend her to anyone. Lately my friends have been telling me they are very impressed by how much I improved in just a few months and I am very excited to see where my voice will take me in the future. She has also helped with my confidence and she is always going the extra mile to make sure I am not wasting my time and money and I am achieving my goals. I love Carmen.”
