Elizabeth is extremely professional and has such a lovely way with kids. My son has gained confidence, as he explored his love of music and singing. I cannot fault her patience and great strategies when engaging the younger crowd. It’s something my son looks forward to weekly and now my youngest wants to attend!

Trillian Sharples

(Secondary student, Vocals, Guitar & Piano)

I’ve learned so much in the 2 years I’ve spent with Elizabeth. As soon as I walk into the room I’m met with a smile and encouraging words through my entire lesson. Then I’m sent off with a bunch of fun, interesting exercises to practice till the next week. My Mum lets me sing inside the house now!

Kirsty Simpson

(Adult, Vocals & Guitar)

As one of Elizabeth’s mature age students, I have thoroughly enjoyed my Voice tuition
and reconnecting with music.
I would never have believed that I could get up in front of people and sing and play guitar.
Elizabeth is encouraging, supportive and I have learnt so much from my weekly lessons.

Natalie

Thank you for all you have done…would never have had the courage to go to Oxygen College and audition if it wasn’t for your guidance. Thank you for everything you have done for me.

Rosemary

(Adult, Vocals)

I have never been able to sing in tune and have always envied those who could – especially a capella. Now my sisters and I can sing simple harmonies and it is so much fun.
Elizabeth is such a great teacher – supportive, organised, flexible and creative.

Georgia Morrison

Heather Campbell

(Adult, Vocals & Piano)

Elizabeth is a wonderful teacher and mentor. She allows exploration and discovery, rigour, freedom and fun at seemingly the exact moments they are needed.

She has reawakened my love of music and shown me I can do more than I thought possible
(especially in singing!)

Michelle Cross

(Adult, Saxophonist, Vocals & piano)

When I have sung in the past I have just sung a bit of everything. Working with Elizabeth has given me a better idea of the kind of artist I want to be. I have also noticed that my vocal range has stretched over the short amount of time she has been teaching me.

Kasey Drew

I would like to thank you so much for all you have done for me. You have inspired me and taught me so many techniques and skills to help me improve my singing.
You have inspired me to go further with my singing, especially in the musical theatre genre. Once again, I would just like to thank you so much. You are an amazing and inspiring person and performer.

Kerryn Drew

Kasey has really enjoyed her time with you and has found you to be a wonderful teacher. We thank you for introducing her to the genre of musical theatre and we hope that her interest in this area continues to grow.
