Harmonious Horizons: Student Testimonials

Step into a symphony of success as we uncover the resonant tales of students mentored by the versatile music educator, Rebecca Windham. Beyond boundaries of distance and genre, Rebecca's guidance extends across vocal prowess, piano proficiency, and the intricate realms of jazz. Through her vibrant spirit, compassionate mentorship, and profound expertise, Rebecca has orchestrated transformative journeys for her students, shaping not just their musical abilities, but their very identities as musicians. From Chapel Hill to Los Angeles, and beyond, these testimonials resonate with the echoes of growth, empowerment, and artistic fulfillment fostered by Rebecca's tutelage. 

Lessons with the exuberant, positive, and incredibly knowledgeable Rebecca Windham made an impact within the first few weeks of my working with her. I found that I had more control over my voice at the microphone singing with my band and better breath awareness and support. Additionally, Rebecca encouraged me to get a medical baseline of my laryngeal functioning, where I discovered the early onset of some potential voice issues. She works within my sphere of health and tailors her lessons to scaffold the work I have been doing with a speech-language pathologist as I resolve my medical concerns. She is a gem and I feel very lucky to be working with her.

Working with Rebecca has been an amazing experience to say the least. Starting this journey, I wasn’t sure what to expect from a teacher on the internet, hundreds of miles away. But she came on the laptop friendly and eager to help and get to know me. I’ve always had trouble breaking down my wall and opening up to new people, but Rebecca makes it super easy. She’s so kind and fun but can be stern when the moment calls for it. She is constantly encouraging and motivating me to go above and beyond. She is, in my opinion, one of the best vocal coaches that I have ever had the opportunity to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone who’s looking to get back into or just starting out in vocal training. 

It’s been a while since I’ve done anything vocally and I was really nervous to get myself back out there again. With vigorous research, trying to find a coach willing to work with me and my hectic schedule, I found Rebecca.   She’s helped me gain my confidence back as well as helping me understand how my instrument truly worked. Within such a short period of time I could already hear the difference in my voice and the clarity in my sound. Especially my head voice which I was super self conscious about. Rebecca has always been beyond patient and so willing to work with me as an online student despite our time differences. She pushes me farther than my mind would allow me to go and has so much faith in my abilities as a student. Her confidence in me makes me want to work even harder to achieve my goals! I am so thankful to have her as my teacher and I always look forward to my time with her. 

Mrs. Rebecca Windham is truly a delight to work with! She makes learning online fun, easy and enjoyable, and really takes the stress out of the whole process. Promoting self-positivity and encouragement is a major role in her lessons as she wants us all to succeed and that's one of the first huge steps to getting there. She's very detail-oriented, which helps a lot considering this is online, and making sure every little thing is right so that you can get the best experience is what it's all about. You'll never have time at the end of a lesson with Rebecca-- she always has something for you to do and work on! She's so patient and I cannot stress enough how supportive she is!

Since I have  been taking voice lessons from Rebecca, my voice has shifted into another level of capacity that I had not been able to achieve on my own. Her ability to teach new techniques in breath work has changed the way I perform, in a way that is easier physically, while also giving me greater accessibility in voice control and range.  I am grateful to have the privilege to learn with Rebecca.
