    “I've thoroughly enjoyed my lessons with Shimona. We've concentrated on technique, posture, and musicality. Her warm and positive energy makes me feel relaxed and confident. Shimona's encouragement helps me come out of my shell when I'm feeling anxious. We always have a great time, and I look forward to my lessons every week.”

    “Compared with other teachers that I’ve had before, Shimona has been best able to understand my voice and guide me to understand myself better as well! She gives exercises that tailor to my vocal needs, and can articulate what to look out for so that I can improve. Suffice it to say, my voice has developed a lot ever since I started lessons with Shimona, even attaining a distinction for my Grade 8 ABRSM singing exam! Thank you, Shimona!”
