Introduction

Hi, my name is Ann Souren. I specialize in contemporary singing styles. I address the individual needs of students and tailor my lessons to meet their needs. The lessons are dynamic, fun, and extremely time-efficient. I aim for results, and I guarantee results. Most of my students feel the difference even after the first session. It usually takes me just 2-3 months to turn a complete beginner into a singer. I strongly believe that with the right teacher anyone who can speak and has an ear for music can become a singer. I have 20 years of experience as a vocal coach and more than 35 years experience as a professional singer/recording artist, singing on stages of different caliber, as well as in the studio. I know what it takes to become an outstanding performer. I have performed with various live bands, orchestras, big bands and shared the stage with Grammy award winners Yolanda Adams, Diane Schuur, Patti Austin, Richard Marx, Leo Sayer and many more. I'm passionate about sharing all of my knowledge and experience with students who are ready to take their first steps into the music industry, or hobbyists, who simply love music and singing. I helped thousands of people around the world learn how to sing or improve their existing singing technique. It makes me so happy to see how my students grow with every lesson. I love to inspire people! It's such a wonderful and rewarding feeling to know that you have helped so many people realize their dreams! I equally enjoy teaching complete beginners, amateurs and professional singers.

Ann has an incredible amount of high-stakes experience in the arts and singing showcases/ performances. This is the most valuable thing a singing teacher can bring to me as a student. On top of that, she is extremely personable and creates a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere to work in— something critical in such a vulnerable activity. She has a toolkit full of techniques to share and apply in a very adaptive and personalized way that brings me as a student a lot of confidence that I will grow with her help. I’m looking forward to future sessions with Ann!

Ann is a great voice teacher. I feel my singing voice is stronger and more confident after just a few months of lessons. She has a very wide range of experience and helped me with genres ranging from children's music to pop music. She really listened to my voice during lessons and could diagnose trouble spots to work on, and then would have an exercise to help iron out the issue. During the lesson I feel like she is my personal advocate, while still giving honest feedback. She also challenged me to unlock new registers in my voice that I didn't think were possible before. Overall a great experience.

I tried out 3 singing coaches is Ann is the BEST! when I was first looking for a coach, I was looking for someone who can help me improve the fastest. I saw Anns vireos of her helping her students sing (before / after) and I was shocked!!! Her technical advice is SUPER GOOD!! It’s really clear she’s coached like hundreds of people and has really good techniques. It feels like every week I’m learning something new. I went from robotic singer with no head voice and very cheesy sound (no support, sounds like I’m trying too hard), to actually having a resonating voice I’m proud of. We started with Imagine, Take me to church, rolling in the deep, Best Part, and now Losing control . I can hit the high notes way more easily and my voice actually rings / has vibrato / is way more smooth/connected!!!! Ann got me like 3 years of teaching in 8 months and I’m really excited to keep working with her!! 😍 her personality is so friendly and welcoming and warm, and her feedback is honest and on point!!!! She also is generous with the time and i can tell she genuinely loves what she does and cares for her students!!! Best teacher EVER! Also the rates arent cheap but also I’d rather work with the best than pay cheap for a bad teacher. With the other teachers I tried, I barely progressed 😭😭😭😭😭 Really grateful for you Ann!!! Keep doing what you’re doing 😍

I knew I wanted to continue working with Ann after our first session. I was simply looking for a teacher that can help me improve in karaoke and belting out my favorite songs at home, but I didn’t expect to find a new self-care practice! Ann is so affirming and generous with her sessions, she really takes the time to understand what’s going on with my voice. I felt comfortable with her right away and my confidence is soaring. If you’re like me and have been thinking about talking singing lessons “just for fun,” you will not regret booking Ann!

I don’t think words can describe how amazing Ann has been for me. I’m a Pakistani living in Maryland who has always secretly wanted to sing professionally. Of course that wasn’t the safe choice for a Pakistani immigrant and I became a doctor instead and moved to USA. My love for singing got buried underneath all the work and I pretty much forgot how happy it made me and how much I needed it in my life…until I met Ann. It almost feels like divine intervention because one random day I just felt like I want to do something for myself. Something other than work and being a physician, mom and wife. I went onto Thumbtack and found Ann with her glowing reviews. I was amazed at how responsive she was even with her incredibly busy schedule and in no time at all I was doing FaceTime lessons with her in San Francisco while sitting on the other side of the country in Maryland. I know this review is getting incredibly long but I feel I owe it to her to say all this. Ann changed my life. She unearthed that deep buried passion I had had for singing as a young girl in Pakistan. She made me believe in myself even when I would cringe listening to my recordings. The tips, exercises and coaching she provided made a world of difference to my voice. I actually heard myself able to sing in a way I didn’t think I was capable of. The experience was emotional and exhilarating. I know it may sound a bit excessive to describe singing lessons this way but it truly was an exceptional experience working with Ann. She is an amazing teacher and a beautiful person. If you are reading this trying to find yourself a teacher for vocal lessons even with no singing experience at all, consider yourself extremely lucky to have come across Ann’s profile ❤️
