Valerie is a great teacher on many levels. I've heard my improvements dramatically within several lessons because of her instruction and if you are nervous she helps you get over it quickly. She is very friendly and helps you achieve your goal, I couldn't recommend her highly enough!

I was quitting smoking when I met Valerie and I wanted to get my voice back. I was so self-conscious of my sound and range but after 5 minutes with her I just let go! She turned my voice around quick, and made me more aware of my stance and breath. I'm really happy I got her as a teacher!

Valerie has been good at trying several approaches to determine what works best for me to achieve the desired result. With an older student that is definately a good thing.

Valerie has analyzed my daughter's skills and pinpointed her needs. She has a precise lesson and keeps the lesson on target the whole time. She is always well dressed and polite.

Six of our eight children are taking singing lessons from Valerie.Their ages range from 5 to 17 years old. They all have different capabilities for singing and they all have different personality types. They all look forward to their lessons and I am seeing many improvements already. Thank you so much Valerie. I am so looking forward to their future lessons and development.

Valerie keeps my lessons fun while teaching me how to recognize different pitches and use my "football voice"! (How to project my voice.) Tori W. (student)
I am thoroughly pleased that Tori is enjoying her lessons. The feedback Valerie leaves is immediate and very clear on what Tori needs to work on to prepare for her next lesson. Beth W. (mom)

Our experience with Valeri has been great. She keeps my young daughter right on task without ever seeming "mean" (especially in a 10-year-old's eyes). She offers age-appropriate comments and suggestions and has a keen sense for knowing when to simply move on to the next task. With other music lessons, getting my daughter to practice was a huge chore, now we almost never even have to remind her to practice - she loves it!
