Jemina Brechoire

Composer, pianist, singer

"Elizabeth is the kind of teacher that will change your life. She is so knowledgeable, but most importantly, she knows how to transmit this knowledge. I learned so much from her. My relationship with my voice has grown exponentially. I’ve built so much confidence in my singing thanks to this newfound understanding of my instrument and now feel fully prepared to take on a much more diverse- and what I previously thought of as challenging- repertoire. Elizabeth will be with you all the way! You will see the difference! Recommending 1000%!"

Kaia Van der Mark

Songwriter, indie artist

"Hello! My name is Kaia and I’ve been working with Ellie for a little under a year now! When I tell you she is a GOLDEN find, I mean it from the bottom of my heart. If you have ever been skeptical/hesitant to take voice lessons but really desiring to improve your singing, you are exactly like me. I have heard enough aimless and unfounded instruction from “voice coaches” over the years to be completely cynical about the idea of taking lessons all together. But the beautiful thing about Ellie is that she teaches a method of singing based off of (stay with me now), ANATOMY! She approaches the voice as an instrument and extensively explains her technique using science, diagrams, and demonstration! It’s actually quite amusing to hear her talk about because she’s so passionate about her craft and will happily go on and on answering questions. Taking lessons with Ellie has allowed me to learn so much about my voice. It has unlocked my range and freed my tone in a way that I’ve never experienced before. As Ellie once put it “Singing is cathartic when it’s correct.” and that’s exactly how I feel. These lessons have made singing fun for me again and removed so many of my inhibitions and fears around it.
I also began releasing music this year! Being primarily a recording artist, it’s so important for me to know how to use my voice during studio sessions and working with Ellie has transformed this process for me as well. I have an understanding of how to achieve the sounds I want relatively quickly now, whereas before it felt like shooting in the dark. My voice journey has been a process and I am still constantly learning. There are days when I run into difficulties with my voice, but I am able to work through it with a belief in the technique I’ve learned. If you want to commit to improving your singing, taking lessons with Ellie is the way to go. She will be your biggest cheerleader but also honest and straightforward about the work you need to put in. She believed in me even when I didn’t and that kind of support is seriously cherishable! <3"

Andy Anderson

Opera singer

"As a busy young professional, sometimes I need someone to keep me honest with my technique. Elizabeth Pope’s exceptional ears and thorough understanding of classical singing technique makes her one of the few teachers I would trust whole-heartedly. Her straight forward communication and cohesive approach to the instrument makes even a half an hour lesson immensely productive — sending me on my way to the next gig!"

Valeriya Vassilenko

Professional jazz and musical theatre singer

"Ellie is an exceptional and truly inspiring vocal teacher! She has deep expertise in her craft and makes her students believe that anything is possible with the right techniques and approach. Her explanations are clear and thorough, making vocal methods easy to understand and apply. The results are immediate—she knows exactly how to build confidence and help you unlock your full potential. Energetic, intelligent, and incredibly talented, Ellie is a fantastic vocal coach, and I highly recommend her to anyone who wishes to develop their voice quickly and effectively!"

Serena Lu

USA Team Rhythmic Gymnast, Dancer, Actor

"Ellie Pope is by far the best singing teacher I’ve ever worked with. She was recommended to me by multiple of my friends who are professional musicians as well as those who have been doing lessons for fun. I’ve been working with her for just over a year and I can feel a world of difference in the progress I’ve made. If you’re looking to start singing she’ll give you the absolute best technical foundation to get you going on your journey! And on top of that, she is herself one of the best singers I’ve ever heard and one of the sweetest people on the planet."

Saúl Ibarra

Concert pianist

"I am not a singer, and I never have been. But I have always loved to sing, and I always wished I could do it well, hit high notes, low notes, and just basically sound good. After about 3 lessons with Ellie I found myself effortlessly singing along to my favorite songs, and a new world opened up to me. I started to sing notes way up in the stratosphere, that I had no idea even existed in my voice. Within such a short amount of time she unlocked my full range- and I'm someone who has never studied voice before. The most shocking thing was how easy it was. If you want to learn to sing, this is the way to do it."

Frisco

"Ellie is the very best vocal teacher I have ever worked with! For years I hoped to find a teacher who could logistically explain to me how the voice work as an instrument; and Ellie is the only teacher who has been able to do so in such a clear manner. Coming from a versatile body of knowledge, she is easily able to zone in and decide what is most important to work on for each individual student. My knowledge of singing and vocalization has expanded vastly more than I could have expected.
Singing has always been a very personal passion for me and it’s rare that I feel so comfortable to share in the presence of another person. With Ellie, I have always felt completely safe and comfortable to express. This is something I feel grateful for as it has created more confidence and flow in my abilities. There is not another teacher that I would recommend more :) "

Luis McDougal

Guitarist, composer

"Ellie is an amazing teacher and vocalist. She explains the mechanics of the voice very thoroughly and in a practical way that's easy to understand. She's kept me in check about using good technique to prevent bad habits that could be detrimental to my voice and musicality. I can't recommend her enough!"

Victor Montiel

Classical Pianist, Drummer

"My name is Victor Montiel and I would like to highly recommend Elizabeth’s lessons. While her technique can seem a little bit tricky and “different” at the beggining, I was soon able to notice important changes: a wider vocal range, an effortless sound and a better understanding of how my body works related to singing.
Besides the great teaching, Elizabeth is a wonderful human being, deeply passionate about teaching and art."

Dylan Wilson

Classical singer

"Ellie Pope genuinely helped shape me as an artist! She thoroughly tackled all of my technical issues, helping me transition from simple art song to bel canto over a 5 week course. By the end of our short time together, I was able to perform “Signore, ascolta” and “Ach ich fühls” with so much more ease, artistry, technicality, and line. "
