Patrice is a gifted professional and teacher. I am an older student and can attest that Patrice knows the right blend of challenging and encouraging her students. I am amazed at her ability to identify areas that need improvement and know exactly the right direction to resolve the issue. In addition, she enjoys teaching and lessons are fun! I have made progress and have watched everyone else in the vocal studio do the same. I am always inspired to work harder but not get "hung up" on imperfections. Every voice is unique and special in its own way.
