“I came to Sophie for help after my voice had been damaged by a health issue, and I’m so glad I did, because she’s been brilliant.
She’s very knowledgeable, not just about music, but also about the way the vocal cords and the breath actually work. She has given me lots of personalised exercises to take away and practice between lessons. I highly recommend her.”
