What Voice Students are Saying

I have loved singing my whole life, but it wasn’t until I started training with her that I discovered the true potential of my voice. When I faced challenges and setbacks during lessons, she faced them with me and showed me how to overcome them. As she taught me and I practiced, I realized that I CAN love the sound that comes out of my mouth EVERY time I sing. I am grateful beyond words for her patience, empathy, knowledge and love for me (and all of the vocalists she works with!) Anyone can sing, but if you want to become stronger and more consistent, Rachel can teach you how.

I feel incredibly lucky to have found Rachel as a voice teacher for both my son and daughter. We’ve worked with her over four years and the progress they have made in that time is astounding. I am continuously amazed at the care, detail, and joy she brings to learning music. Not only is she an incredible musician with a gift for teaching difficult concepts that even young people can understand, she is a ray of sunshine. She brings an element of sincere excitement for every milestone. I’ve sat in countless lessons when she delightfully rejoices the moment it “clicks” for a student and that type of engagement of student and teacher is such a rare gem. My kids feel seen, cared for, and every lesson they leave with greater confidence in themselves. Not because they see themselves as the best singer, but because they just learned a technique they couldn’t do before and saw what a difference it made in their sound. They know they can do hard things. They know they are supported and that Rachel believes in them. As if stellar lessons weren’t enough, the recitals and concerts that Rachel regularly produces are such a treat. Every recital is different, with different themes and different styles of music. I’ve loved the versatility my kids are receiving in their training to help make them well rounded musicians. They’ve learned classical, pop, and musical theater and the stylistic and technical differences required for each. The group lessons have been hugely supplemental and fun with guest teachers and niche topics. Something else I’ve noticed is the strong sense of community among the students. The group lessons, performances, and ensemble opportunities have given my kids opportunities to make new friends and feel like they are part of something great. Rachel is my #1 recommendation any time I hear someone looking for a teacher. Beyond grateful. We hit the jackpot.

What I like best about Rachel’s teaching style is how encouraging and supportive she is, while still pushing me to reach my full potential. She’s incredibly thorough with her explanations, which makes it easier to apply her feedback right away. Compared to other teachers, Rachel is very attentive and detail-oriented, which has made a big difference in my progress.

My daughter has taken lessons from Rachel for a couple of years now. I immediately could see the confidence building in her after each lesson. The knowledge & talent that Rachel has is fascinating and she has an incredible way of teaching that to her students in an applicable way. Rachel makes voice lessons a positive and fun experience. And she also cheers all of her students on in their own personal lives – especially if it has to do with music. She is beyond organized with the business side of things which I appreciate as a parent. Rachel is simply the best and we are so grateful we found her!

Rachel is wonderful at encouraging me to grow and push myself, but she has also helped me see how much progress I’ve made. She creates a very safe space to learn and make music in.

I have been taking lessons from Rachel since 2019! She is truly the best teacher! Rachel gets you outside of your comfort zone and is always teaching in a way that helps each student to believe in themselves. She is your biggest advocate and believes in each and everyone of her students. I have learned so many things from her and am better because of it. She is truly an amazing teacher!

About Rachel.

Rachel has been teaching voice for over 8 years. After receiving her bachelor’s degree in Vocal Performance from Utah State University, she has continued to study voice and pedagogy, expanding her knowledge of singing every day.

Rachel is a member of the National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS), and was recently elected as the President of the Northern Utah Chapter.

Rachel’s work in her community enhances her private teaching. She is a regular adjudicator for Region & State Solo and Ensemble, Regional Theater Competition, and other various singing competitions. She enjoys working in local high schools, giving presentations on acting and vocal technique.

Rachel also works as a music director and choreographer with teen, college, and adult performing groups. Her hands on work with casting and rehearsals gives her a unique perspective while prepping her students for auditions.

Most recently, she worked as Music Director for USU Theater Department’s production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, where she worked students from the Musical Theater and BFA degrees. Rachel has spent two summers working with Utah Festival Opera and Musical Theater, music directing Les Miserables, which boasted a cast of teens from across the state of Utah.

Rachel takes a science-informed, functional approach to teaching singing. Her knowledge of vocal function, combined with her play-like structure during lessons encourages a warm learning environment where every sound is welcomed. Rachel believes in working the voice like any other part of the body that is used for activity, and she cross-trains all her students to be successful in every style.

Rachel also believes in learning through experience, and encourages her students to participate in school choir and theater programs, community productions, concerts, and more.

Rachel completed this week intensive with more in-depth knowledge of vocal function, and new, thoughtful approaches to teaching application.
