Within five minutes of getting to know each other I was already comfortable with Mr.Houston which made it easier to get over my fear of singing in front of people. From the first lesson, he already discovered my sound as well as what needs improvement which was great. I'm really excited to see how I progress with these lessons with Mr. Houston.

I've only had a couple lessons with Mr. Simmons so far, but I've had so much fun learning from him. I was so nervous to start singing again, but he's helped build up my confidence and now every week, I look forward to going to my lessons!

I am very happy with my choice to work with him. After the very first lesson I noticed better sound quality and control. His book and instructions are priceless because you will discover what is possible for your voice. He was able to point me in the right direction without me singing a note and at that point I knew I had made the right decision. DON’T hesitate book him if you want to LEARN how to sing skillfully and with confidence!!

I met with Mr. Simmons a few months ago an was already impressed by the way he broke singing down in its simplest form not even taking a single Lessing yet. I started my first just a week ago an i already feel like a singer. This guy knows his music. I can truly say with honesty, Mr. Simmons is a wonderful teacher, Thank u Mr. Simmons for having the patience and the time to help me become a better singer.
