    About Celine K.

    (80)
    I love to teach students of all ages and abilities. I believe that learning music should be fun and enjoyable. It is my mission to guide and provide appropriate tools to educate musicians who will always have a lifelong passion. I am a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. I have been teaching professionally for 17 years. It is important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. I try to find out what student is interested in, and guide my instruction according to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. I teach breath support, vocal range expansion, resonance, tone placement, posture, proper diction, sight reading notes, ear training, releasing tension and stage performance. I can help my students improve technique for any genres of music they want with a focus on building a solid and healthy technique. I graduated from George Mason University with a Bachelor of Music degree in piano and voice. I have the Artist Diploma in Vocal Performance at The Royal Conservatoire of Monaco. I was the Semi-Finalist of NATS, singing fluently in Italian, German, French, Latin and Korean. Master Piano/Voice instructor of Music and Arts. My specialties/genres are Classical, art songs, popera, opera, church music, Pop, Broadway/musical theater, Disney, traditional folk songs, K-pop/ballad. *PLEASE NOTE* I am only accepting weekly students.

    Celine's expertise and approachability have made my vocal lessons a truly enjoyable experience. As someone who started lessons in my 30s with no prior singing skills, I've been amazed by how quickly I've progressed under her guidance. She is very good at breaking down complex techniques into manageable steps and clearly communicates how to execute them, allowing me to build my skills with confidence. Her patience and encouragement have been instrumental in helping me overcome my initial hesitations in singing and develop a greater appreciation for music. I highly recommend Celine to anyone looking to improve their singing abilities, regardless of the starting point.

    Celine was very concise with singing and voice care advice. She's also extremely patient when there are struggles; learning how to sing from scratch can be a long journey and she definitely eases my worries with how patient she is with me. Also Celine often works around you and she gives you a lot of freedom with her lessons. The flexibility and kindness she provides during our singing lessons is nothing short of amazing. She also helps with Korean songs if you are interested, I know I was! If you are looking for a long term singing teacher I would highly recommend her.

    Miss Celine is the best! I get better with every lesson. I have taken voice lessons previously and I never felt as challenged as I do. She is very interested in me using what we learn outside of lessons. Every lesson is intentionally put together to help me grow! She has always built my confidence and is very affirmative.
