Rising Country Star on Working with Melissa

 

"Ava could not have done it without the confidence you instilled in her through your coaching. She was so touched you came to see the show!!! We are very blessed to have you in our lives!!"  Jennifer M. 

Confidence Whisperer 

"I highly recommend Melissa! Although my daughter, Reese, has been working with her for a short time, I have already seen tremendous growth! We came to her for vocal coaching but I am amazed at what she has also done with Reese’s acting and, even more importantly, her confidence! Confidence building was not even something we had discussed (of course who doesn’t need confidence) but Melissa incorporates it in all my daughter’s lessons and I am so happy she does. Reese’s voice and acting skills are improving rapidly because she has gained so much more confidence and because Melissa is a guru theatre coach. She genuinely cares about helping children reach their highest potential. I can tell she really loves her work and gives her whole self to the kids who come into her life. I feel we are so fortunate to have found her and know we will be working with her far into the future."  Andrea Gershein, Jupiter, FL

Bak & Dreyfoos School of the Arts Success!

"This is a heartfelt thank you to Melissa Boher Jacobson for the wonderful preparation she gave my granddaughter for her Bak audition. My granddaughter attended the workshop Melissa ran for students wishing to enter Bak’s vocal program and had a few private lessons just prior to her audition date. Melissa showed caring, understanding and actual methods for improving her singing.  She taught the group a wonderful folk song that made excellent use of the children’s vocal talent. She helped the children to feel less anxious and more confident about their upcoming performance. I give Melissa Bohr Jacobson 10 stars for her teaching ability. My granddaughter is looking forward to continuing her instruction with Melissa." -Linda Quittman

"My daughter came to Melissa with very little theatrical and voice experience for audition coaching for Dreyfoos School of the Arts.  After training with her for only a short time, not only did she develop the necessary skills in vocal and theatrical performing, but also her delivery, presentation and most importantly, she developed her confidence. My daughter truly matured as a performer and as a person. It is because of Melissa that she was accepted into Dreyfoos.  We look forward to the years ahead with Melissa. She is an outstanding talent, life coach and teacher. She loves what she does and it shows!" -Gayle Morley

"Working with Melissa was the best experience I could ask for. She's helped so much with vocal technique, such as pitch, breath control and so much more. She focuses on everything related to performance, which has been really helpful, especially in preparing for my audition at Dreyfoos School of the Arts!  She's just an amazing teacher. You'll love working with her!" -Juan Carlos Ramirez

"Melissa is the best! I'm so thrilled to report that after working with Melissa, my daughter was accepted as a freshman acting major at Dreyfoos School of the Arts. I'm looking forward to having my daughter continue to work with her on singing!" -Kelly Kenney
