Under Stephen guidance, I've gained access to my upper vocal register and significantly enhanced my ability to manage it. Our sessions also included focused work on developing my musical ear and accurately reproducing tones. I found his approach to be both understanding and encouraging, and he maintained a productive yet enjoyable learning environment. My progress under his tutelage has been substantial.
