    Connect with a professional and experienced voice coach and take your singing to the next level

    I am an energetic, efficient vocal coach and performing artist. I hold a Bachelors of Arts degree in Music Peformance; with my training, I have the ability to teach effective vocal techniques at every skill level. I am known for taking an engaging, therapeutic and creative approach to my teaching style by incorporating the student's input to include fun activities or stress management techniques. I make sure that my students are at ease during my sessions which will allow them to tap into their "sound" and sing with passion. I am also serious about their vocal development and set an individual plan to make sure each student's goals are met.

    Vocal lessons and coaching shouldn’t be a chore. Your musical journey should celebrate your life and help you explore all of your interests. When you finish each experience with me, my goal is for you to feel refreshed and uplifted. What to expect Be prepared for an exploration. We’ll experiment with different genres to find the one that naturally suits your voice and your comfort level. We’ll start our session with something that comes naturally to you, and I’ll get to know what you like — so I can incorporate that into each lesson. Like to dance 💃🕺🏽? Let’s warm up with a few dance moves. Have a favorite tv show? Let’s sing the theme song a few times. Pop, Classical, R&B, Jazz, Opera, Hip Hop, Musical Theater, Country, Blues, Soul, Gospel — we can do it all, if you want. I’ll build upon each lesson at a pace that works for you, working together to select pieces for you to practice in between sessions. It’s a no pressure, fun environment that will carry you through the remainder of your week — until we meet again. Who should sign up 🎵 Anyone! If you’re 10 or older, I want to hear from you 🎵 All experience levels. I can start from the beginning or help fine tune a more seasoned voice 🎵 Rediscoverers. If you once loved to sing and want to get back into it, it would be an honor to help you 🎵 Testing-the-waterers. Not really sure if music is right for you, but you want to give it a try for a few sessions? Let’s do it 🎵 Preparers. Have an audition or event coming up and just need a little extra help? Let’s get you ready, together

    I had the pleasure of voice lessons with Ms Jackson for about 3 years. In that 3 years, we worked on technique to improve my voice and ultimately help me to discover the first soprano voice that I possess. She is talented, informative, patient, and exhibits nothing but excellence in her vocal training lessons. She made lessons fun and enjoyable and I would highly recommend her for anyone interested in singing. She is professional and talented.

    I can tell that Tiffini is very passionate about teaching vocal lessons, this is not just a job for her. The interaction she has with my daughter is very positive. Not only did my daughter learn the proper way to breathe but she is also learning how to be diverse and sing chorale music and pop/r&b. They also have tons of fun with their warm ups and song choices. I would highly recommend Tiffini!
