Testimonials:

Kevin - Vocal Recovery Student

“Amy is a miracle worker! I started working with her after a bout of laryngitis had made even daily conversation a struggle. When I went to meet her, I felt that if I ever got my voice back again, even if it took months, I would be satisfied. Instead, by the end of our first day together we were in the studio singing (!!!). Since then, Amy has helped make my voice broader, richer, and stronger than it’s ever been. She combines a rigorous technical knowledge of the mechanics of singing (and speaking!) with an intuitive compassion for her students and a master teacher’s gift for explanation and illumination. Whatever your experience level and personal needs, you won’t go wrong working with Amy.”

Megan Davis, Ph.D. Marine Scientist

   “Before I met Amy my only singing was off key to radio songs or Om in yoga class. For many years I wanted to learn to sing and when our paths met I began my voice lessons with Amy the next day. Amy made me feel comfortable right away. Her gorgeous and inspiring singing, her genuine and fun personality along with her many years knowledge and experiences of how to teach you to sing has made it possible for me to find my voice, my instrument.  Amy tailors her sessions to each individual and finds ways to relate your singing to what you do and need in your life. Singing and voice lessons with Amy is transformational and a beautiful process of finding yourself through the bonus of song.”

Steve Caldwell, Chorus Singer

"I have found Amy to be a very technical instructor who gives much of the 'why' and 'how' in order to produce a much more full, rich, and controlled sound. Amy is also a very intuitive and insightful instructor almost knowing what type or quality of sound you are going to produce even before you even make any sound. She knows this because of her technical knowledge of singing. This is likely a reflection of the high quality training she has received over the years and the wonderful vocal artists with whom she has studied and sung. While having high expectations of her students, Amy is equally encouraging during her lessons which creates a very positive learning environment while studying voice. All in all, I highly recommend Amy Cofield for the serious student of voice, whether singing professionally or for one's own pleasure. "

Brooke Tolley, Soprano

"I'm so glad to call this beautiful woman my teacher, mentor, one of my best friends, and sometimes-therapist. The way that she inspires her students to be their very best selves is nothing short of amazing. I would not be the singer or teacher I am without her."

Colleen Ernandes, Voice major, NEC

"I am proud to have had Amy as my voice teacher my last two years of high school, as she helped my voice grow and mature as I prepared for my college auditions. Amy is an inspiring mentor and kind friend who provides lots of positive reinforcement during lessons, along with a solid, tried and true vocal technique. As one always should, I walked out of the lesson room each week full of energy and feeling positive about my work, even if I didn't necessarily feel that way going in. I feel extremely lucky to have had the opportunity to know and learn from Amy, and do not believe I would be where I am today without her. "

Lori Rutherford, Proud Parent

"I was so thrilled when Amy took [my daughter] as her student at age 11. [She] had been taking voice lessons at another studio and was not making much progress. I pulled her out and put her with Amy and the classical training was what she really needed. Her voice improved so much.  I feel like Amy formed a bond with my daughter. My daughter always looked forward to her vocal lessons and really liked Amy. I feel like my daughter received a great beginning and foundation in her vocal training journey. "

Tatiana MacMartin, Apprentice Artist

"Amy Cofield is such a beautiful person who I get to call not only my voice teacher but my wonderful friend. She is always there for others, and in addition to all that, her voice can pierce your heart like no other.

Abigail Head, Graduate Student, Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins

"Amy Cofield is a wonderful singer and teacher. In the year and a half I worked with her, Amy helped develop my technique and grow my range to heights I hadn't thought I'd be able to sing. She also helped me prepare for auditions, including several successful auditions for graduate programs. She brings a wealth of knowledge to her lessons, both pedagogically and as a performer. Amy is supportive and encouraging, always guiding her students with positive words and advice."
