Hi! I’m an NYC-based professional singer and experienced teacher specializing in helping students build healthy technique, musical confidence, and a lifelong love of singing. I hold a Master of Music in Classical Vocal Performance and a Bachelor of Music in Music Education, and I bring a decade of combined teaching and performing experience to every lesson.

My teaching style is warm, supportive, and structured. Many of my students start as complete beginners, and within a short time they learn to read music, understand their voice, and sing with more ease and confidence. If you’re an intermediate or advanced singer, I’ll help you refine technique, expand your range, and develop the skills needed for auditions, performances, or personal growth.

WHAT I TEACH
• Voice (classical, musical theatre, pop, and crossover styles)
• Piano (beginner to early intermediate)
• Music theory + sight-singing (for singers of all levels)

WHAT ARE LESSONS LIKE?
Every voice lesson is customized to your goals. We focus on:
• Breath + support
• Resonance + tone clarity
• Dramatic interpretation
• Diction + text clarity
• Musicianship + reading skills
• Repertoire you’re excited about

AUDITIONS & SPECIALIZED GOALS
I work with students preparing for:
• Auditions
• Choir placements
• All-State sight-singing competitions
• “I just want to sing/play better!” goals

STUDENT RESOURCES
All students receive access to my Student Portal, which includes:
• Guided practice tracks
• Vocal warmups
• Music-reading resources
• Personalized notes from lessons

If you’re ready to start building confidence, improving technique, or just enjoying music more, I’d love to work with you. Send me a message with your goals or book your first lesson today!

The Greatest Experience, the most Knowledgeable & Fun

Elizabeth saved me in my intro to music theory college level course. She’s easily accessible, extremely kind, and very passionate about what she teaches. Quite literally the best instructor ever, always had a great time and enjoyed learning.

Faye, 11 lessons with Elizabeth

Best voice teacher

She was so helpful in showing me im not Tone deaf. She helped me so much in my first lesson and actually listened to me instead of just telling me what I did wrong!

Aj, 10 lessons with Elizabeth

Fantastic Tutor

Elizabeth was an excellent tutor! She was kind, patient, and improved my ability of rhythm and sight singing very fast. I would definitely recommend her for anyone and am very thankful for her help. Overall, Elizabeth kept the lessons timely and was very reasonable with timing. She also was very friendly and fun to get along with. Would absolutely recommend as a tutor.

Thorough, Kind, Patient, Wonderful

Elizabeth has been a huge asset to my performance skillset. I am learning so much with her about my voice and how to create the best, easiest, most pleasant sound. I am also getting a wonderful education in sight singing. She is great and kind and cares a lot about her students. Lucky to be one of them.

Very supportive tutor

Elizabeth is a very supportive tutor, which is important for me because I have stage anxiety. She gave me specific recommendations on how to be a more confident singer. Thank you, Elizabeth!

Larisa, 37 lessons with Elizabeth

Friendly and knowledgeable

I needed a tutor for music theory and she was able to break down the basics of part writing, theory and analysis at my own pace which is something I really appreciate in a mentor.

Kangsan, 25 lessons with Elizabeth

Very Suprising

Elizabeth is truly amazing. She is very enthusiastic and encouraging. She's great at measuring out the time needed for the lessons and gives helpful tips and practice materials for the following week. She also is very quick to respond! This is going to be my 3rd lesson with her and my sightseeing has already improved drastically. I'm excited to keep working with her and would recommend others to do the same.
