Elyssa Vulpes Collective Music Tuition Wellington

I have to say I am very happy with my experience with Elyssa and Devyn. I have two daughters, one wanted to learn violin and the other piano, but I was a bit wary because I had some bad experiences before with music schools and teachers changing all the time. What I liked about this set up was that it is very personal and professional but I felt I was dealing with people rather than a nameless organisation. My daughters really enjoyed their lessons and are now keen to play together! I would recommend to any parent who wants their children to learn music properly but also wants them to have fun and wants to make sure their teacher doesn't disappear after one term!

I went to Elyssa because I wanted to re-learn piano after a long pause. I was never very good at reading and I wanted to be able to play songs without struggling so much. I was very surprised at how fast I learned and how different her method of teaching piano was. Now actually understand what I am doing and am able to play songs so much faster than before!

Elyssa is outstanding! Superb professionalism.6 months ago I had a personal goal: singing a specific song in the best possible way.The starting point was the in all my life I never sang and was also off-key.I was willing to learn and Elyssa understood the nuances of my goal.We set up weekly lessons which I greatly enjoyed. Each session was modulated by Elyssa with method, creativity, progressive care of details. She also gave me a really useful set of home exercises and a warm-up method, to enhance the tone and the style of my voice.I had a great fun and enjoyment in each session, and noted that the progression I could gain through her continuos vigilance and advice, was notable and very encouraging to me.She has a great skill to transfer meaningful nuances of sounds learning with proper examples, and also with visualization technique.Plus a right reminder to feel the right feelings during the song, to adjust the body posture (I tended to move my head too much...) , to breath when and how needed.I highly recommended Elyssa for passionate learners.

I decided to get lessons when my bandmates kept telling me I was singing out of tune. I was a bit hesitant at first because I felt intimidated by the idea of taking lessons, but Elyssa put me at ease from the start and I felt comfortable singing in front of her. I am happy to say that I feel a lot more confident singing now, I can connect to my power and my bandmates are no longer complaining, which is a bonus!

I can't recommend Devyn enough. My daughter Sylvie had violin lessons with her and really fell in love with the violin as a result. Devyn is a lovely teacher who is both skilled at her craft and able to translate it into something kids can enjoy. This is not something easy to find, as I discovered with previous teachers. Thank you so much!
