About Rachel S.

5.0

(18)

Rachel is a lyric soprano who bracingly locates the heart and soul of every character she embodies. Her roles run the gamut, in both style and character. They range in scope and tone from uproarious comedy to searing drama, all deftly infused with life. Her innate artistry and incisive technique have rendered her a consummate actress and vocalist, in full possession of her instrument. Studio Policies: Rachel adheres to TakeLesson's cancellation policy. You may cancel lessons 24 hours ahead of a lesson or more without being charged. If a student wakes up sick, Rachel reviews the cancelation on a case-by-case basis. A no show, no contact or a less than 24 hours' notice of a cancelation will result in the use of a lesson credit.

Rachel was so professional and warm! She helped me feel less nervous, answered my millions of questions, explained some technical things that really helped, and made everything fun The lesson passed in a heartbeat - and considering how nervous I was, that's amazing!

Rachel is beyond amazing! She is a talented teacher, a gifted and highly trained singer and one of the most patient, supportive and insightful intructors with whom I have had the joy of working. What makes Rachel special, on top of all the traits I have already detailed, is that she seems to have an intuitive understanding of my neeeds as a pupil and provides the perfect amount of encouragement, training and guidance for a beginner, as I am. I have now worked X2 per week with Rachel over the past year and my singing experience with her has been life-changing. She is also prompt, respectful and funny! Thank you, Rachel!
