Hi, I’m Rachel, and I like nothing more than listening to people, hearing their voices, understanding their starting point and where they want to go, and helping them get there. My obsession with the voice started in college, where I was studying Applied Math and Computer Science, but also taking voice lessons on the side. Wow, feeling the voice in the body, making sound, changing sound: that physical act was just SO MUCH FUN.
I decided to add a music major as well and went straight to graduate school where I got a Master of Music with Distinction in Opera Performance. I spent a decade studying foreign language, traveling and living abroad, and working with some of the most talented opera teachers and coaches around.
I believe my years as a classically-trained opera singer is one of the secret ingredients in how I’m able to successfully teach thousands of students how to pronounce English using the mechanics of the vocal chords and mouth—not just learning through memorization.
