TESTIMONIALS
Katie is not only a fabulous teacher with an incredible musical knowledge, but an endearing and supportive guide to any student, young or old(ish). I cannot recommend her enough, whether that’s to improve your ability or simply build in confidence. She is a go to for any and every performance goal.
Olivia Birch - Performer
Katie has worked with me for a number of years as my Musical Theatre Director. She is exceptionally gifted at teaching singing in a way that is easy and relevant to students. She is fun and works with students on technique and her own belief that they can sing. She is gentle and able to give even my most self conscious students confidence. She is quite simply masterful whilst always allowing time to laugh a little.
Sue Day - Principal
I have had the pleasure of working with Katie casually and professionally on a number of projects over the last 10 years, and can say that her commitment to and understand of her art is truly phenomenal. She is encouraging, knowledgeable, and an incredibly talented performer and musician. I can think of few better people to nurture and guide the growth of musical ability.
Jake Bussell - Muscial Director
I had the privilege of working with Katie for the UOB Panto Soc production of ‘Shawshank Redemption’ in 2019. She helped me massively to inprove my singing. She is extraordinarily talented and a lovely, very warm person. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their singing teacher!
