Susan Rumor is without doubt the finest voice and dialect coach I've had the pleasure of working with in my 40 years in the business. Her passion, skill and techniques are simple and extremely effective. She works with the best because she is the best!

What I got was a miracle. Within a few lessons, I could feel my range expanding and my voice strengthening. And within a couple of months, I was singing songs I could never sing before. . Susan is by far the best voice teacher I've ever been to, and in my 14 years in the music business, I've been to quite a lot. None of the others seemed to understand who I was and what I was trying to achieve like Susan. Go see her. She's the best out there.

We were delighted with the work Susan did with the actors during rehearsals for MTVs (musical adaptation of) Wuthering Heights. She put the actors at ease and was able to effectively communicate with the music producers.

I've seen a lot of self-proclaimed recording vocal coaches come and go, and I can say with tremendous confidence that none of them compare to Susan, whether it's in the pre-production phase, recording phase or helping a singer expand their skill set to get better work done in-studio.

Susan's knowledge of the human body, her gifted ear and her creativity make her a rare and special teacher. I love working with Susan because her unique style of teaching reaches all aspects of singing, the physical side of singing, the emotional side, and the creative side. Working with Susan has expanded my skill set, given me confidence, and prepared me for all types of different situations I have faced as a singer. I have so appreciated her professionalism and her support. Having studied with many teachers over the years, I can honestly say Susan is the best of the best. Her teachings are a gift that I use everyday.

I had gone through a major tragedy, which delivered a post-traumatic, muscular throat condition. As a brilliant vocal coach, Susan worked with my voice faithfully and relentlessly. I am extremely grateful for her. I now sing with Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis in their Soldiers Gospel Band.
