What her students say:
"I have heard of voice training before, and I always thought of it as 'for people with gifted voice only'. In my head, it was just practice sessions and nothing to do with development. After I met Krystal and learnt that what I had was misinformation, I decided to give it a try. In the beginning I did not expect much and thought I would hit a brick wall after a minor improvement. Boy, I was wrong! After the first 5-6 weeks at one session per week, I could already notice considerable changes without any reminders. Now in my 11th month, crossing a bridge doesn't sound like a speaker going into distortion and my current singing feels like I am a totally different person from what I was 11 months ago. What I like even more than the improvement is that the sessions run at a pace to suit my comfort level. If you are a decently persistent person with some interest in singing (or better yet, with passion), I strongly recommend the class. You would be surprised to see your actual potentials.” - Jeremy.Y, Hong Kong “Throughout my SLS lessons with Krystal, I learned more than I could ever imagine. It was the first one-on-one singing experience I've ever had and I was fortunate that I had such a knowledgeable teacher. At the beginning I struggled with some of the concepts that were taught, and even if I did understand them, it was sometimes difficult to actually apply them. However, as more lessons went by, I realized that I was grasping the exercises with more ease. I could also tell that my singing range had shot up by a long range, which is something I had always hoped for. My voice and the way I sing are different now, and even my friends are amazed at the changes. SLS lessons have made a big impact on my life, and it is something that I hope I can continue.” - C.T, Vancouver, Canada “Krystal is an excellent SLS teacher that I would recommend to anyone that wants to improve their singing skills. She was able to identify all the problems and bad singing habits I had developed over the years in the very first lesson. And the customized exercises she gave me did help me tackle my singing problems effectively. One of my biggest concern over the years was that I could not expand my range. But after a couple of lessons with Krystal, she had introduced me ways to "cross the bridges". I was able to hit an octave higher after the lessons. Krystal is very creative in how she explains hard-to-grasp concepts. But what makes her an excellent teacher is her positive attitude that makes her students feel encouraged even when they make mistakes. Krystal has done a great job in creating an environment that is constructive for learning.” – Elain Tung, Hong Kong
