Just wanted to say thank you for helping Reika out with her Grade 6 Aural! She was so unwell this week and missed school but decided to still take the exam. Results came out today and she got a distinction (131 with aural 16/18).”  Fritzie

Claire and her team at Chelsea Quavers have gone beyond expectations to take our son, Ansel, from an interest in singing to a passion. Their approach and connection to students is very effective – the bar is set very high, and the feedback is direct and immediate. The results have been beyond our expectations – he has gone from pass-grade to distinction-level in the short time working with the CQ team. Thanks Chelsea Quavers!” Maria Grachvogel, London See video of Ansel’s testimonial

Chelsea Quavers has been absolutely amazing in making our now 11-year old boy discover the world of music and giving him the passion for it. Music is now part of his life, helping him through difficult moments and giving him immense pleasure and joy! Over the last three years, he has grown into a self-confident “musician”, preparing now Grade 5 in such an easy and fun way, together with his piano practice! We feel it has been giving him much more than music skills, this is really about life skills!” Pauline Barrieu, London

I’ve always loved singing, but ever since I’ve worked with Chelsea Quavers, they’ve turned my love to a passion. I’ve always hated Theory before this, but when I started lessons, she showed me how to enjoy it and how important it really was.” 11-year old online pupil
