As a teacher, Anissa strives to meet each student where they’re at in their journey, and adjust vocabulary/terminology so that healthy vocal technique and practices are accessible to all levels. She is a patient and encouraging teacher, and is devoted to guiding students to a greater sense of confidence in their musicianship — while also helping to maintain a sense of joy and awe of music within the more difficult parts of practice.
