REVIEWS:
'My experience with Naz has been one of the most eye-opening experiences in my vocal training. In just what seemed like days my range had been stretched further than I thought possible. She makes it fun and the time flies when you are learning about the anatomy of your voice and learning the exact placement that should be used. In only 3 lessons I can drastically see a change in my upper range & now I?m singing effortlessly without strain. Much different than most teachers her teaching style ranges to classical to commercial styles. I know I'm getting every penny worth and I would say you are missing out on a GREAT experience if you don't get lessons from Naz. We have fun during lessons and at the same time I am able to accomplish my goals as a recording artist.' -- Blare LeVoir
'Thank you so much for yesterday's lesson! Ethan absolutely LOVED it!!! Ethan rode on a 'high' all to bed and woke up doing his vocal exercises.' - Carol
'We have had the pleasure of working with Naz as my 14 yr. old daughter's vocal coach. Naz is a joy her demeanor and professionalism are remarkable especially in an industry that is so busy and fast paced. Naz takes her time and gets to know the student's strengths and weaknesses to better enhance their vocal skills and with her approach the student excels. My daughter only sees Naz once per week but I can already see a better quality in her vocals with Naz's teaching. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for professional guidance in vocal skills and singing.' - Carmen
'Thank you so much for fitting Meagan into your schedule this week. I wanted to especially thank you for making Meagan feel so comfortable in her first lesson. She was really nervous and you made it a fun experience. She learned so much more than we expected given she's been in lessons for 2 years with another vocalist. We are very happy Maddie's mom referred us to you and Meagan is definitely eager to start working with you. This is going to be a totally new vocal experience for her and take her to a whole new level and we can't wait to see her evolve. Thanks so much.' - Tammy
'Meagan won Best Overall Talent at the talent competition in Los Angeles! Thank you for all your help in preparing her to compete. She now has meetings with several agents and managers here in LA.' - Tammy
'I began lessons with an overwhelming terror of singing no professional ambitions and a sense that I'd already let my best years go by without getting over my fear. After accepting the gift of Naz's teaching and that is how I see it I've grown in confidence and pride as I began bridging scales finding purer tones managing breath and learning that my best years are yet ahead of me!' - Cheyenne
'Naz has made a huge difference in my career as a singer and performer. Through specialized vocal techniques she has shown me how to use my voice to
an extent that for years I never thought was possible to do. She has even increased my range at least three octaves so now I have notes I never knew I had! I
used to have a very quiet and timid singing voice. Now when I perform I get told how awesome I sound and that I should keep it up. My band loves it because
every time we work on a new song Naz will work with me on how to approach it so I can sing it to my best ability and I go back to rehearsal singing it like I had been practicing it for weeks! I definitely recommend Naz as a vocal coach. She makes lessons fun and worthwhile!' - Tori
