Who is Helene?

I graduated from the Norwegian Music Conservatory in 1995 as a voice teacher. I teach a variety of musical genres, from classical to jazz, to students of various skill levels. In addition to teaching voice, I impart basic music theory knowledge to beginners and intermediates. My family and I split our time between our homes in Norway and the United States.

 
Why am I passionate about music?

I grew up in a musical family with a mother who sang a lot and a father who played the piano. I believe that everybody can learn how to sing and enjoy music.

"I started voice lessons with Helene almost 3 years ago and it has been a wonderful experience. I had wanted to take lessons for many years and I am so glad that I found her. She understands my music taste and interests and finds me songs that I love to sing. She explains concepts in a way I can understand. I’ve learned so much from her over the last 3 years. The best thing about her is her ability to always find something positive to say even when I feel like I haven’t done well. My daughters have also taken lessons with her and agree that we leave our lessons feeling so uplifted and motivated. I highly recommend her."
