Progress Music Academy

I've been having classical singing lessons with Alexandra for almost a year now and she's caused me to improve so much!! Her lessons are so enjoyable and she teaches other styles, not just classical. Before I became her student I couldn't sing high notes without my voice cracking and the notes sounding strained. Now my voice never cracks and I can hit them with a nice sound confidently, clearly and powerfully! I have much more control and precision over my voice too, and she's really helping me correct bad habits I picked up from before she taught me. My voice has become richer and clearer too. My choir leader has also commented multiple times on how much my singing has improved since I've been having lessons. Alexandra is a lovely, thoughtful teacher who I'd really recommend!!

I’ve been having singing lessons with Goldie now for almost two years and I’ve noticed a drastic difference in my voice, allowing me to feel far more confident in my voice. I always look forward to my lessons with Goldie and I always walk away from my lesson feeling like I’ve achieved something. Through Goldie’s feedback and expert knowledge, I’ve been able to achieve things with my voice I didn’t know I would be able to. Not only has she helped me vocally, but she has also given me lots of guidance on becoming a better musician and artist. I definitely wouldn’t be in the position I am today musically if it wasn’t for Goldie and Progress, I thoroughly recommend them!

Having taken vocal lessons with Alexandra after 6 months, I am confident to say that she is a professional, competent and capable vocal teacher. I once took vocal lessons with professionals for a year in drama school and Alexandra is definitely one of them. Thank you Alexandra 🙂

Goldie is an amazing vocal coach, and choosing Progress Music Academy for my lessons has been one of the best decisions I've made. I really enjoy having lessons with her. Her feedback is always constructive and encouraging, and I’ve learned so many new techniques that have really helped my voice, singing and public speaking. I can see noticeable improvement in my singing, and I’ve even had the chance to perform at showcases, which I never thought I’d be confident enough to do before. I highly recommend Progress Music Academy to anyone looking to improve their vocal skills!

I started having singing lessons at Progress earlier this year after being 'volunteered' to sing backing vocals in my band (I play sax). I've had no previous personal singing instruction, although I obviously have some musical knowledge from playing the saxophone. My main aim was to try not to sound horrendous but I'm beginning to accept that I can actually sing! My tutor Tia has been exactly right for me; she has taken the time to explain to me the technical points of using my voice in a way I've found very easy to understand and helped me work through any problems I've encountered whilst continuing to encourage and uplift me. I have even been able to listen to a recording of myself singing - amazing! It's been a long time since I had proper lessons in anything (around 20 years!) and I'm enjoying it so much. I would never have achieved what I have so far trying to learn at home on my own. Progress is a great place to learn, very well equipped and set up and the booking system for lessons is very slick. I can't thank Progress, Gary and especially Tia enough for helping me find my voice.

Tia is an amazing vocal coach! She's very kind and understanding towards her students of all levels. As a complete beginner, she really helped me gain more confidence in myself and encouraged me to try new things. I'd highly recommend to her anyone as she makes her lessons extremely enjoyable!

Booking singing lessons for my daughter, at Progress Music Acedmy, has been the best decision I have made to help support her future career choice. They are so professional and organised. It is so easy to book and all of the staff are friendly and welcoming. My daughter has lessons with Tia and the difference in her voice since she started having lessons with her is phenomenal! Tia understands her, understands her voice and what songs will suit her, she pushes her out of her comfort zone with songs she wouldn't usually sing but they sound amazing, she looks after her vocal health, she also supports her emotionally with friendship. Sophie says that when she goes to lessons with Tia, it is like going to lessons with her big sister! Thank you to everyone at progress, especially Tia as Sophie is now becoming more successful at auditions and I know this wouldn't have happen without your support and guidance.
