My daughter enjoys her signing lessons with Amanda. I can hear improvements in her voice and she has more confidence.

Amanda is very attentive and thorough.

My daughter is learning a lot and very fast.

Just didn’t work for us.

Amanda is a wonderful teacher for all types and all ability levels. What we were able to accomplish in the short time we were able to spend together was nothing short of amazing. I learned more in three months with her than I ever thought possible. Thank you so much Amanda and I will continue my lessons with you as soon as I can get back home to OKC.

I was very happy with my first lesson!!

Amanda is an awesome teacher. We have been to other singing teachers in the past and did not learn near as much as my son did in just this first lesson. My son and I are looking forward to working with her.

My first lesson ever. Amanda made me feel comfortable and I really enjoyed the lesson and learned so much... Looking forward to learning more...

Professional and personable! Seems to love what she does and be very good at it!!

Amanda is super nice and I feel like she can really make my voice stronger and help me have more confidence.

Kenedi is always so happy and joyful before and after her lessons. Amanda does an absolute amazing job communicating and teaching. We are very happy, and will continue to use her as long as she is willing to teach my daughter. Thank you very much

My son enjoyed the lesson a lot. He practiced today and we hope that level of excitement keeps up.

Amanda met me at the door and we walked to the class room. She explained what we were going to accomplish in the 1 st lesson. She made me feel at ease.
By the end of the lesson my breathing was a lot better , sing on key better and that made me feel good.
Looking forwarded to the next lesson.

Super sweet and helpful. I learned many things in the first lesson.

Amanda is awesome

Best one. Especially for my first teacher. Taught me quite alot. Shes a very great teacher for alot of type of lessons. My #1 teacher right now.

Great first lesson. Very patient. I have no background and felt I learnt something in the 30 mins.

Amanda is a very effective teacher. My first singing lesson my voice open up and projecting.

Amanda is among THE best. Super talented, and puts up with me. Wish I had a recording of our impromptu a cappella duet last week of "All I Ask of You" from
"Phantom..." She's extraordinarily gifted, and we're so fortunate to have her back in the OKC area. And, yes, she's going to be Christmas caroling with us on December
13th. Too bad, I relinquish my role as the lead singer. DCM

My 13 year old son loves working with Amanda. She has done a great job zeroing in on his interests and incorporating those interests into his lessons. She taught him how to play the beat of his favorite Eminem song! I love that he looks forward to his lessons with Amanda!

Amanda is amazing! She is great with kids!
