Amber is an absolute joy to work with! I’m new to learning how to play the piano/read music and am incredibly impressed with her patience and ability to teach.

Amber is great fun to be with online and she KNOWS singing. Never having had singing lessons before, I didn't really know what to expect, but had some idea about getting breathing instructions...nope! She identified issues I never knew existed, explained my current vocal range and gave me easy to remember exercises to work on til next lesson. Gosh, who knew it could be this easy? 

Moving opera forward...

Performance with Carlos Monteagudo
