I recently took the Open Mic Course with Valentina in November 2025, and let me tell you, it was an absolute game-changer! It was the best decision Iโve ever made. Iโve always been a performer, but Iโve been struggling with stage fright lately. It had become a real burden, and I was afraid to step on stage again. But with Valentinaโs guidance, I found the confidence I needed to get back on stage. The course was a great way for me to practice again in a safe environment. And then, the final performance in front of my classmates and a bunch of strangers was the ultimate test. And guess what? It went amazingly well! I was so proud of myself. Now, I canโt wait to do a proper open mic with the friends Iโve made on this journey. Itโs going to be so much fun! Iโve also started taking 1-on-1 vocal lessons with Valentina, and sheโs been incredible! Within the first few lessons, I could already see a huge improvement in my voice. Weโre working on things that were holding me back, and Iโm so excited to see where we go. If youโre looking to improve your vocals and performance skills, I highly recommend City Vocal Coach. Valentina is amazing, and sheโs made a real difference in my life.Posted on Lieke Jacobs14 November 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Iโm not exaggerating when I say that working with Polly has changed my lifeโbecause it truly has! I started mentoring sessions with Polly just over a year ago. I had recently finished my bachelor's degree in the Netherlands and wanted some guidance on my next steps toward a future in creativity and music. Polly gently encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone to explore my songwriting dream. One of the things I value most about her approach is that her encouragement is never just a โyouโll be fine, just do itโ push; it is practical and considered, rooted in a realistic assessment of my options and backed by her broad knowledge of the business. This approach helped me build genuine confidence not only in my songwriting but also in the industry itself. I discovered that I wanted to become a songwriter. When the opportunity arose to move to London to explore this path, I dared to take it. I never would have dared to dream of such a thing if it werenโt for Polly's nurturing sessions. I was, and still am, a newbie to it all, a little uncertain of every creative step I take, but I am beyond grateful for where I am now! Polly's guidanceโcharacterized by her genuine kindness, wisdom, and the empathy of a fellow artistโis helping me walk confidently toward my dreams. Thank you so much, Polly!Posted on David Lee2 November 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really fun!Posted on Lise Le Joncour14 October 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been taking singing lessons with Amy for the past couple of years and can highly recommend her. Her teachings have helped me improve the quality of my voice and I feel more confident singing now than ever! Sheโs also a lovely person and very easy to get along with on a personal levelPosted on C TURTON1 October 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sam is a fantastic singing teacher! He really helped me build the confidence to sing again and taught me proper technique in a way that actually made sense. On top of that, lessons were always relaxing and such a good laugh โ I genuinely looked forward to them each week. Highly recommend!Posted on Seema Farswani18 September 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Polly Kerrigan is an amazing mentor, who provides personal guidance for growth based on your skill set and talent! I love how she offers her creative perspectives and valuable insight into the industry for New Artists, and keeps me on track with my goals! Am so grateful to have her as a mentor :)Posted on Steve L7 September 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've had 5 lessons with Malin now and can already feel and hear the difference in my voice - much more control and better tone and confidence. She is very professional and yet very friendly and chilled!Posted on margaux bertuzzi24 August 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amyโs an amazing vocal coach with patience and extremely encouraging. I love the establishment as a whole as well!! I strongly recommendPosted on Asma Mani24 August 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I canโt recommend Amy highly enough - she is an absolutely incredible teacher, hugely kind and encouraging and drawing on an immense amount of technical and musical knowledge. I love my lessons with her and learn so much! I feel so lucky to have found her as a teacher.Posted on Daniella Harry10 July 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Valentina has been the vocal coach I prayed for! I began weekly lessons in Nov 2024 with Valentina and in the space of 7 months, I have succeeded in my ability to hit high notes, being able to sustain my vocals (not making them to breathy) and better resonance in my chest and mix vocals. In the space of 4 weeks, I went from not being vocally confident to sing a challenging song like A Change Is Gonna Come by Sam Cooke, to performing it live at the City Vocal Showcase and hitting every note effortlessly. Valentina has helped me so much with my vocal ability! She has also helped me finish 2 original songs with her expertise as an artist. Valentina helped me with both writing and music composition such as helping me with a chord progression that I was struggling with. She is such an inspiration and I am so very happy to have found her!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
