Testimonials

When asked to say a few words about what it was like to work with me as a teacher, here is what some of my students, their parents, and my coworkers had to share...

"My son Kevin started taking voice lesson classes with Heather two years ago and being 15 when he started, his voice was in the midst of changing and developing. In the past two years Kevin has achieved dramatic results with singing tips and techniques that he has learned from Heather, as well as learning about stage presence and Music Theory. She has worked with him one on one in preparing him for auditions and performances and taken the time to see him on stage. Heather has become a part of our family and an inspiration for Kevin as she guides him to becoming a well-rounded artist."

"Being taught music by Miss Heather is nothing short of an awesome experience. As soon as she starts teaching, she radiates her passion for music, leaving her students soaked in enthusiasm and an appreciation for the art.  Heather gives people a reason to love music."

  ~Student, Grant Brecheisen

"Heather, as a vocal instructor, is one like no other. Not only did she help me mold and change my voice, but also there came along a hysterical friendship I wouldn't trade for anything.  Her level of professionalism and kindness come together and form a teacher as unique as she.  I have never seen her give up on any performance or rehearsal.   No matter if she is having a bad day or is not feeling well at all, she always puts forth the 100% effort. May I say I have had the opportunity to hear her sing and her voice is like no other.  I remember being in theatre camp and rehearsing for Les Miserables.  I was a bit shaken and scared since I had a lead in the show and I had to push my voice to places I have never known I could reach. The day of the show came and I gave it my all like I promised her.  After the show, I ran to her, hugged her, and started crying because I never in a million years thought I could reach my dream of performing.  It was all thanks to Heather Elswick and her God-given talent.  Anyone who is lucky enough to work with Heather will not only gain a friend, but will be taught by one of the best.

"Heather is definitely one of my favorite music teachers I have had. She really works hard to make sure you understand what your part is and if you ever ask she is there to help you with some extra time. Once I began to get the know Heather as a person and not only a teacher I found out she is such a sweet person who really is dedicated to those she loves. I can hear it in the way she speaks, how passionate she can get about specific things, which makes her such a wonderfully unique individual. I was fortunate enough to also get to have Heather as a Co-Worker and that was one of the most fun and memorable times I have had at a job. She really tries to make everyone happy. I look forward to working with Heather again in the near future because those are definitely some of my favorite memories."

"Miss Heather is one of the best music directors I have worked with!  In the two years that I have known her, I have learned so much and had an amazing time whilst learning. Not only is Miss Heather very knowledgable about music and theater, she is also one of the sweetest and most down to earth people I know. Every time I'm with Miss Heather I learn something new and I am so grateful to have her as an instructor."

"Heather Elswick is not only an amazing teacher, but an outstanding friend. She has helped me improve my vocal skills greatly, better than I ever could have thought, AND she has become the first person I go to when I have a problem. Her beauty as a person and as a performer inspires me every day to be a better person and to always push the limits and step out of my comfort zone.  Truly an inspiration."
