I have always felt very nervous and vulnerable singing, and came to the classes with a lot of baggage – but the first thing Charlie did was send my insecurities packing! She is such a compassionate, funny and skilled teacher, adjusting each session to suit my needs that day and always remaining encouraging. Couldn’t recommend her enough! What a wonderful, confidence building tutor anyone would be lucky to have x Sophia

My daughter participated in an online singing course taught by Charlie in February 2021. She loved it, and her singing had improved remarkably after only four lessons. Charlie has a relaxed and warm manner, and is consistently positive and encouraging with the children. The songs were available with a range of tempos and accompaniments to accommodate different ability levels. The course materials were high quality and I was impressed with the concepts covered in a short course. My daughter finished the course keen to continue learning with Charlie. Evan Fountain
