Best Vocal Teacher That I’ve Ever Worked With
Allie, 13 lessons with VirginiaVirginia really knows her craft well. She truly knows to pull that potential out of you and turns it into reality when it comes to singing. It’s such an abstract art, but she manages to turn that into something so palpable. She really made me feel like I could really sing. I had always been told I had a weak voice, but Virginia helped me reach a high D today TWICE (a HIGH D) with support and no pain. She gave me the tool and I could tell she really cared about my progress. I am so excited to...

Please don’t hesitate to take lessons with her. The woman knows what she is doing!! Highly recommended :)

Fantastic Voice Instructor!
Virginia was kind enough to have a last minute practice with my daughter before an audition on a song she’d worked on with an in person teacher. The positive changes she made in that one session were totally noticeable to me and my 11 year old. So glad to have found her!

As Tina would say, "Simply the Best!"
Virginia is helping me learn Spanish as an adult self-study student. She is patient, funny, and supportive, and as a native speaker VERY helpful in getting me to conversational Spanish. I could easily see her gentle guidance being helpful to ANYONE in the process of learning anything. Can't recommend highly enough!

Virginia will help you connect to your true voice and deepen your joy for singing!
From the moment I started working with Virginia, I was able to let go of inhibition and doubt and instead welcome more joy and openness to the process. With professionalism, expertise, vast experience, passion, understanding, and warmth, Virginia guides me as I find my own voice technically and in terms of expression. She gives me the tools to expand on my natural abilities plus the confidence and inspiration to connect to the meaning of what I’m singing, tap into why I’m singing, and expand my vision of what my role as a singer can look like as a compliment to my guitar playing, as a singer in my band, and as a soloist. In the past, I had doubted my abilities and felt inhibited, but with Virginia’s kindness, delightful sense of humor, individualized approach to teaching, and effective demonstrations and feedback, my voice has become much more clear, resonant, melodic, and expressive. Virginia guided me towards my first solo vocal performance where I accompanied myself on the guitar - what an exhilarating experience! And I became much more confident as lead and back up singer in my band which makes it a lot more fun and helped raise my musical abilities to be on par with my more experienced bandmates. I always look forward to my lessons and remain inspired in between. I feel incredibly fortunate to take lessons with Virginia. She has worked with people of all levels, all ages, all genres, and with people of many cultures. I highly recommend her - you will not be disappointed!

Fun and Patient Teacher
My daughter has been learning Spanish with Virginia since summer. When I searched for Spanish tutor, I was looking for native Spanish speaker, with potential common interests with my daughter. I'm lucky to find Virginia. She is a singer professionally and my daughter loves singing. I immediately knew this would be a good match. I was right! In the past 2 months, my daughter enjoyed every single lesson with Virginia. They would chat about music, classical or k-pop, daily life, k-drama, etc. My daughter often says to me that she's learned more with Virginia than what she gets from school. While I certainly hope my daughter has good grade at school, what's more important to me is that someone can lead her to the interests of different culture through the language. I feel that Virginia is doing exactly that! My daughter still doesn't feel comfortable to speak Spanish with other people (e.g. in restaurant, etc.), but I'm confident that with Virginia's guidance, she'll reach there soon. Thank you, Virginia!!

Knowledgeable and Patient tutor
She is a wonderful teacher and her class is very helpful. By the end of the first lesson, my daughter knew much more about music than she did before. Ms. Virgina H is very patient and encouraging, and she doesn’t hesitate to help her students with what they are struggling with. My daughter is always very excited about her class, and learns a lot from her.

Excellent voice teacher
Virginia has a way of connecting with my daughter. She is helping her find her voice, stressing the fundamentals of singing and connecting to a song even at a young age. Virginia has a wonderful, vibrant personality that immediately put my daughter at ease. I've noticed results after only a few lessons. Amazing voice teacher!
