My name is Chau and I am a transplant from Australia. I’ve lived in Las Vegas for the last 19 years. I have a Bachelor of Music degree from the University of Western Sydney, New South Wales, Australia and University of Nevada, Las Vegas, majoring in vocal performance and music technology. I am a wife to my husband and a mother to our four children. I've been teaching voice for over 20 years and have loved every minute of it because I truly care about my craft and more importantly, my students and their creative goals. I was a Music Specialist at Merryhill School in Las Vegas, teaching K-8th Grade, until I became pregnant with my second child. I've also worked in church worship teams for the past 20+ years, both in Australia (Sydney and Brisbane) and Las Vegas, Nevada. My faith dictates the way I live my life and as a young child, my dad taught me to always strive for excellence in all that I do — this mentality has undoubtedly motivated my teaching career. My students can count on a teacher who is prepared and creative in developing a learning experience that will exponentially grow them in their creative field. I inherited my love for singing from my Mum — as a child I watched her perform and wished that I could one day do the same. At the age of 16, after auditioning, I was selected to be a part of the New South Wales Senior (High School) State Choir and as a result, I toured the USA in 1999 representing the Australian Embassy in the United States. This was around the same time that I caught “the bug” and decided to pursue music as a career. I then went on to study music, first briefly at the Music Conservatorium in Sydney and then finishing my Bachelor's degree in Music at the University of Western Sydney. I was first classically trained vocally and with that background, moved onto more contemporary vocal styles. After marrying my husband, I moved to Las Vegas and began my graduate studies in Counseling/Psychology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Music and Counseling, to me, made the perfect marriage as I love music and love people equally. Needless to say, teaching music and helping people has made my life very fulfilling. *** Studio Equipment *** Live Sound and Recording Equipment Intelligent Piano Sitting area for Parents/Guardian I will provide students with the necessary materials needed for instruction. *** Specialties *** I specialize in vocal techniques, and diaphragm/breathing techniques. As far as style or genre are concerned, I use both, my experience in classical voice training and contemporary voice training, to keep my students engaged in their craft. I listen well to my student's needs and meet them where they are at, ensuring that I meet their creative goals and not my own.

I love working with Chau. She does an amazing job at explaining everything. I feel she genuinely cares about what she does and her students. I’ve been going to her for a little over a month and I can already feel and hear a difference. ❤️

My highschooler started working with Ms.Kim this fall semester and has made amazing progress after only a few months! Ms.Kim is very knowledgeable and direct. She also explains well the goal and clear steps on how to do the exercises, etc. She is also very patient and professional. I recommend her very highly.
