I’ve been taking lessons with Joseph for five months now, and describing my experience as just vocal coaching couldn't be further from the truth. I’ve worked with several coaches throughout my life, but those journeys usually lasted only a couple of months. Not because I lacked commitment, but because I never felt truly seen or supported beyond the lesson itself.
It came as a surprise when I all of a sudden found Joseph to act not only as a vocal coach but as a guide, or how I like to call him, a mentor.
He doesn’t just meet you once a week and disappear until the next session. You’re present in his mind beyond the lesson, when he hears a song he thinks would suit your voice, he'll send you an email at 3am because he doesn't want to forget. He'll give you personalized exercises based on what he notices you need, lesson by lesson. His approach is deeply attentive and genuinely invested.
When I started, my pitch somewhat okay. We spent three lessons focused purely on ear training, and I can confidently say that now I almost never miss pitch once I hear a note, and when I do, I’m always very close. I also had the chance to meet him in person while I was in New York, and that lesson exceeded every expectation. It confirmed everything I already felt that is the fact that he is, by far, the most integral and committed voice coach I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve worked with quite a few.
I came to him with little confidence in myself and my voice, with a very pronounced break that held me back. Five months later, I can slide through that break, my voice has completely transformed, and it continues to change, because he’s helped me not only train it, but find it. Joseph teaches and guides with passion, care, and purpose. He’s not just a coach, he’s a mentor. And there’s no one I’d rather have as a mentor on this journey than him.
