"I enjoyed my lessons with Carina, they were fun and we made progress quickly. I looked forward to each week and I was able to work on the music that I chose. I received complements from my choir leader on theimprovement of my voice within only a couple of weeks, so that was great progress.  For me the best thing was working on my technique and using the various parts of my voice instrument.” ~ Corrinne, Group HR Director (Singapore)

"Taking up singing lessons" was one of those things I thought I would never dare do.  But early this year, I was going through a stressful time at work and wanted to do something different, and decided to take singing lessons on a whim.  I had hoped for it to be a fun project that would give me something to look forward to at the end of the day, and at the same time learn something new.  Carina was a blessing.  Not only is she a skilled voice coach, she is also a beautiful person who is a joy to spend time with.  Lessons with her felt more like spending time with a big sister, who can sing and play the piano with you as you tried to hit the high notes.  Having said this, Carina is also very good at what she does - she will surprise you with the huge amount of equipment she has, and she will run you through the technicalities of the location of the larynx, pharynx and voice box…  and bring out the best in you.  I'm very happy to have takenup singing with Carina, and I'm sure you will too.”   ~  Jenny, Engineer (Philippines)

"I was looking for a singing class when I stumbled on the website of ‘The Voice Room’. Without any recommendation, I bravely took the risk and signed up for a crash course with Carina after reading about what ‘The Voice Room’ could offer. I love singing karaoke songs and wanted to improve myself and ‘The Voice Room” was able to customize a course that suited my needs.  Carina diagnosed my weak areas and immediately set out to work on those areas. These included breathing exercises to build up stamina and pitching exercises o improve my tone and vocal range. I found the lessons interesting and I looked forward to the singing class every week. I am now able to pick songs that suit me and most importantly, I am able to sing with confidence; thanks to ‘The Voice Room”. ~  Hazel, Financial Consultant (Singapore)

“I had never thought that learning how to sing can be fun yet effective until I attended voice lessons conducted by Carina. She is professional, experienced, fun loving and passionate in helping her students to achieve their learning objectives – to be a star, to be a professional singer, for leisure singing or even for personal enrichment. After the training, I am now more aware of my own voice in terms of weaknesses and strengths and more motivated to improve myself to achieve my ultimate goal.” ~ Amy Lim, Project Manager (Singapore)

"I have always enjoyed singing, but just for myself because I was thinking it was so bad that nobody should listen to me.  But I arrived in Singapore, and some friends of mine who had a rock band proposed to me to be their singer.  So I discover that finally with some training I could sing properly. And I decided to find a singing teacher. I found Carina, and at the second I met her, I knew that it was the right choice.  She helped me to go always further, she was pushing me, encouraging me, trying to get the best of me. These singing lessons represents the 1st step of my new moto "do what you never did before, but always wanted".  It gave to me more self-confidence and also self-esteem. And in a really funny way! It was always a pleasure to come to the lesson. I will miss this weekly appointment and I will really Miss Carina. Thank you so much for all you did for me, you did much more than you can imagine!" ~ Sarah, Fashion Executive (France)

"My friend and I were looking for a singing coach.   Through my singing partner's friend, we took up singing lessons with Carina of The Voice Room.   I always love singing but do not know how to sing it right.    Into my 8 lessons with Carina, am extremely happy with my progress.   I was able to sing with feeling, coupled with proper pitching technique and Carina also puts in a lot of efforts to correct my Chinese language pronunciation.  Carina is patience, friendly and more importantly, she is competent.  My friends complement my singing.  Now I am able to sing with confidence.   ~ Peggy, Executive Secretary (Singapore)

"I love singing, but could never sing well.  I attended some vocal classes, but none of them really helped.  Gradually, my passion for singing has been lost…  This depressing situation lasted until I met Carina.  She shows me how to breathe correctly and how to project my voice in the best possible way.  My singing has been significantly improved after a period of practices, and my presentation skills has mproved as well.  I know I could never do all these without the help of Carina.  She is warm, cheerful and also a professional vocal coach who is always patient with students.   Besides voice coaching, Carina is a good life coach as well.  She cares about her students and always wants to help them grow.  I am currently working overseas but I think I will continue my lessons with Carina when I am back to Singapore because I think my voice still has a potential to be further improved.  For now, I want to show my sincere thanks to Carina for all the help she had given me and I wish her a big success in her teaching career!"  Jessica Chew, Student (China)

"Being a Malaysian, my mother tongue is Malay language.  When I moved to Singapore to work, I started to speak Singlish and eventually, got confused by what is correct English pronunciation.  I found The Voice Room while browsing through the Internet.  After attended a few of her English pronunciation lessons, I have discovered a tremendous improvement in my English pronunciation.  Thank you Carina!" -  Faridah Student (Malaysia)

"I attended Carina’s Public Speaking and Presentation Workshop in Feb 2010.  It was a corporate program organized by my company.  All of my life, I had this fear of doing public speaking.  After attended the workshop, I have become more confident when speaking in front of my audiences.  Being in Business Development Manager, I need to present sales speech to my customers on a regular basis.  Not only I am more confident in speaking, my voice projection has also improved.  Carina had taught me how to project my voice properly, which allows my voice to be grounded and travel directly to my audiences’ ears.  I really appreciate Carina’s effort in making the workshop fun and interesting for all the participants.  Good job!  Keep it up!"  - Nelson Ng, Business Development Manager (Malaysia)

"I am from Beijing, China.  I had wanted to improve my English pronunciation s that others could understand me better, especially I am from the service industry.  I felt it difficult to master the correct English pronunciation until I attended Carina’s English Pronunciation and Accent Reduction Program.  Carina had done a wonderful job fine-tuning my pronunciation and also my Chinese accent has been greatly reduced.  She has a great personality and is very patient and is always making the learning fun and easy.  I would recommend her to anyone who wants to modify their mother tongue accent, regardless of their English level."  – Chen Wei, Customer Service Representative (China)

"I have taken up Carina’s Speech and Presentation course, for which she has executed her profession well; as no one has ever tell me where I have gone wrong in my speech and how to correct it.  I was skeptical at first as I known her only via The Voice Room’s website.  A risk, which has now proven to be the right decision to sign up with Carina as my trainer.  Carina is also helpful and I feel that she has the heart of a teacher, willing to go through the extra miles, efforts and provides useful recommendations for my own further improvement.  I strongly recommend her for Speech and Presentation course."  - Dorcas Goh, Assistant Chartering Manager (Singapore)

"Thank you very much, Carina, you have helped me a lot.  You have helped me identify my weaknesses and mistakes in pronunciation. I can see a tremendous improvement after attending your course." Lisa Liu, Draftsman (China)
