Teaching REviews
"I have been taking voice lessons with Felicia for over a year, and I have learned so much. She is knowledgeable and patient and designs our lessons to fit my interests and strengths. I highly recommend her as a voice teacher!"
- Lucy B.
"Felicia is a great teacher, I have improved so much in just 3 months. I love my lessons and can’t even believe how much I have learned."
- Yuri J.
"I've been working with Felicia for a few months, and she is amazing! I noticed improvement within my first couple lessons. I strongly recommend her for beginners (like me) or even those trying to improve upon their skills."
- Andrew S.
"Felicia Betts is a fantastic vocal coach. She allows her students to experiment with new things and helps them reach their maximum potential. I have been able to experiment and understand methods of singing that never quite occurred to me before. Felicia has allowed and encouraged me to experiment, practice, and constantly improve. In addition to causing a drastic improvement in my singing, she makes it incredibly entertaining and lets me sing songs I want to sing. I constantly look forward to lessons with her and am never bored. She is always on time, always responds, and is always looking to help. 10/10!"
- Ella A.
"I have been working with Felicia for a little over a month and a half, and it really has helped me take a whole different view and approach to singing. She helped me understand how my whole body is an instrument and it's not just forcing out sounds through my throat. She really takes the time to help me understand where the sound is coming from, how to make sure my sound is not just belting but well-formed, how the air travels, body positioning, etc. I have learned the importance of actually understanding how we are able to create beautiful voice through changes we make with our whole body. Definitely would recommend to any beginner looking to build a solid foundation!"
- April L.
