About
Opera-trained voice teacher offering personalized online lessons in classical voice, musical theatre, pop, audition preparation, competition coaching, and healthy vocal technique.
I help singers build confidence, vocal freedom, musicality, and reliable technique through structured lessons, personalized practice notes, and supportive follow-up.
Hi, I’m Claire — an opera-trained voice teacher with a warm, structured, and individualized approach.
I work with singers of different ages and levels, from young beginners to advanced students preparing for auditions, competitions, performances, and music programs. My lessons are designed for students who want more than a one-size-fits-all voice lesson. Each lesson is tailored to the student’s voice, goals, repertoire, strengths, and current challenges.
I received my Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance from Seoul National University, graduating with honors, and completed my Master of Music in Classical Voice Performance at Boston University as a scholarship recipient. Since 2013, I have taught classical voice, musical theatre, pop, audition preparation, diction, vocal technique, and performance coaching.
Students I have worked with have achieved a wide range of results, including acceptance into programs such as the Berklee Young Artist Program, scholarships to schools and music programs, competition awards, musical theatre roles, and successful audition outcomes.
One thing that makes my studio different is the level of structure and follow-up I provide. Students receive personalized lesson guidance, practice notes, and follow-up lesson logs so they know exactly what we worked on, what to practice, and how to continue improving between sessions.
My goal is to help each student build a voice that is healthy, expressive, reliable, and truly their own.
Teaching Style
Teaching Style
My teaching style is warm, encouraging, and detail-oriented. I focus on helping students understand their own voice rather than simply copying a sound. In lessons, we may work on breath support, resonance, vocal freedom, range, diction, musical interpretation, audition strategy, stage presence, and performance confidence.
I often use clear imagery, simple physical exercises, and personalized vocal warm-ups so students can understand technique in a practical and approachable way. I want students to feel supported, challenged, and confident as they grow.
Curriculum
Each student receives an individualized lesson plan based on their goals and level. Lessons may include:
• Healthy vocal technique and breath coordination
• Classical voice foundations
• Musical theatre repertoire and acting through song
• Pop and contemporary vocal technique
• Audition and competition preparation
• Diction and language coaching
• Repertoire selection
• Performance confidence and stage presence
• Personalized practice notes and follow-up lesson logs
For younger students, I create a supportive and engaging lesson environment that balances healthy vocal habits with songs they enjoy. For teens and advanced students, I help with audition preparation, interpretation, repertoire strategy, and technical consistency. For adult beginners, I focus on building confidence, vocal freedom, and a clear practice routine.
Student Outcomes
Students I have worked with have achieved results including:
• Acceptance into the Berklee Young Artist Program
• Scholarships to schools and music programs
• Competition awards
• Musical theatre roles and audition acceptances
• Successful preparation for performances, recordings, and school music opportunities
I support students not only with vocal technique, but also with repertoire selection, audition strategy, interpretation, diction, and performance confidence.
Curriculum
My teaching method is warm, structured, and personalized. Every student has a different voice, goal, and learning style, so I create an individualized lesson plan based on each student’s needs.
Lessons may include healthy breath coordination, posture, resonance, vocal freedom, range, registration, diction, vowel shaping, jaw and tongue release, musical phrasing, interpretation, and performance confidence. I always connect technique to real music, whether the student is working on classical repertoire, musical theatre, pop, K-pop, audition cuts, competition pieces, or performance material.
For audition and competition preparation, I help students with repertoire selection, technical polish, diction, interpretation, confidence, and performance strategy. I also provide personalized practice notes and follow-up lesson logs so students know exactly what to work on between lessons.
Online lessons are simple to set up: students only need a quiet space, stable internet, and any device or microphone they already have. I can provide backing tracks or piano accompaniment as needed.
