Stephanie, I wanted to take a moment to express how much I enjoyed your performance at my son’s wedding. Though I hadn’t heard you sing before, my daughter had told me how amazing you are as a performer, a wonderful teacher, and that you have a stunning voice. I was absolutely thrilled when I learned you had the time to perform at the ceremony. Your presence elevated the entire event. It was hard not to give you a standing ovation right there during the ceremony! And when you performed a second, surprise song—You Light Up My Life—during the reception, with my daughter and granddaughter interpreting for my son and his bride, who are both deaf, it was an incredibly touching moment. I saw how moved they were, with tears in their eyes. Your voice is extraordinary, but what touched me most was the kindness and heart you brought into every note. That second performance gave our guests the perfect opportunity to show their appreciation, and they certainly did! I knew I would be delighted when I heard you’d be singing, but I could never have imagined just how much you would add to our family’s special day. You delivered not only with your beautiful voice and stunning gown, but also with your elegant stage presence and grace. You provided the whole package. Stephanie Thompson is now the first name that comes to mind when anyone asks for a recommendation for a truly great performer. I can’t thank you enough for making my son’s wedding such a remarkable and memorable event.
With great admiration,
Patti
“I’ve known Stephanie Thompson for many years, and not only is she an incredible professional singer, but she’s also an even more wonderful person. She pours her heart and soul into everything she does, especially her music. I’ve had the privilege of hearing her sing on numerous occasions, which is why I asked her to perform at my brother’s wedding. Both the bride and groom are deaf, and I wanted to dedicate a song to them by signing in American Sign Language while Stephanie sang for the guests. Her rendition of You Light Up My Life, the song I dedicated to the couple, was absolutely magical. She also graciously agreed to sing You Raise Me Up during the ceremony, adding even more beauty to the day. So many guests approached me afterward to express how moved they were by her performance. Stephanie’s voice is not only powerful and elegant, but she also has a unique ability to connect with her audience on a deep, emotional level. I am honored that she was a part of my brother’s wedding, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!”
Working with Stephanie as my voice coach has been an absolutely transformative experience. She is not only an incredible coach but also deeply connected to God, and that connection shines through in everything she does. Growing up, I was so shy that I would cover my mouth when I talked or smiled. Even though I loved singing, I always did it in private because I didn’t believe I was good enough. Through Stephanie’s guidance, I’ve not only discovered the true potential of my voice but also learned how to use it as a way to connect with my deeper sense of self. Finding my voice through her coaching has unlocked a new level of how I show up in my life, and her approach has empowered me to embrace both my voice and my relationship with God. I now feel a sense of confidence and purpose that has allowed me to pursue what I love with renewed passion and a stronger connection to my faith. I’m so grateful for her wisdom, kindness, and the way she integrates music with spiritual growth. Stephanie’s program is more than just voice coaching – it’s a journey of self-discovery and divine connection.
“I thought I would really work hard on my music, whether it was playing the piano or singing, during the isolation part of the pandemic —- but in fact, I didn’t work on anything, other than occasionally playing a few songs on the piano. I had a nice list of pieces to work on, but it was only ” half-assed “. Your lessons ( like this one ) have helped me a lot in trying to stay focused and NOT lose my desires or my ” joy ” or my interest altogether !! I thank you for your encouraging words, your kindness, your knowledge. I felt I was falling into a dark place, but you are a beacon of light helping me to stay afloat. My musical friends seem so FAR AWAY !!! But YOU are HERE !!!”
A caring Mentor with a Passion for Music. My daughter recently had the pleasure of voice lessons with Stephanie. Her Zeal for teaching and nurturing young talent shines through. Her dedication, patience and love for helping her discover her joy for music and finding her voice was wonderful to see. I would recommend Stephanie to any aspiring singer looking for a caring mentor who is passionate about helping students discover the Joy of music.
“My daughter has been going to Stephanie for voice lessons for about 7 sessions now and within a short time I’ve seen a difference in her voice. She’s learning warmups to help bring out her voice. Every lesson we’ve had with her my daughter has enjoyed and I’ve seen improvements in her confidence with her singing.
Stephanie is great at stretching Jordyn’s voice out to her highest potential and her positive reinforcement that pushes my daughter to always sing her best because she has “it”. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for our little songbird!
Thank you, Stephanie, for bringing out the voice in her!”
Stephanie Thompson is a wonderful teacher. She is patient, kind, and has a sparkling knack for helping her students reach the fullest of their potential. She helped me broaden my confidence and vocal range, and she helped me appreciate the most beautiful musical instrument on earth – the human voice.
After seeing a Facebook post from Stephanie Thompson I was lead to take the leap. As a former Geek in school and the girl singer in a couple of bands in school, it was a long time that my voice had any training and my range has shortened dramatically. Since the lockdowns I haven’t been able to do my usual karaoke and my range got even smaller and my breathing was no longer sustained enough to control my voice the way I knew I should be able too.
I felt and heard a definite difference from the very first class. I was embarrassed but Stephanie’s gentle and kind personality cheered me on with her big smiles and words of praise and encouragement. My classes with Stephanie are a pleasure that I look forward to every week. I know that she will kick my but in all the best ways and I will come out of each class knowing that I have spent my time well and achieved something for myself. Thank you Stephanie. You are a Godsend. I wholeheartedly would recommend Stephanie Thompson’s class to anyone wanting to learn how to control their gift of song or anyone wanting to fine-tune what they already have.
“After seeing Stephanie’s Facebook live Voice lessons, I found the courage and saw the value to take lessons even though I’m not a. Professional singer. Then she asked what my goal was and I said that when I sing, I feel the chin and neck tightening so that there is no voice coming out. I want to solve it, sing freely and naturally. In a short time, she discovered why my voice did not come out when I was singing! She taught me three tips that gave me the ability to open up my voice. Stephanie is a very passionate, deeply insightful vocal coach and amazing singer. I love her songs and I sing along often. In a very busy time, lessons with her were very informative times that challenged and energized me. Most of all, while taking vocal lessons, there were times when my voice was very thick and low-pitched, so when I was talking to my kids, I could make a voice that seemed angry and I am very happy that she could point that out and fix it clearly. Therefore, the reason why my voice did not come out when singing was naturally connected and resolved. Stephanie made the lessons insightful and fun. Having her as your coach, I’m sure you will walk away feeling and knowing your voice has shifted, gain confidence and get the same joy and good results as me Thank You!”.
This letter is to recommend Stephanie Thompson as a beautiful singer and beautiful person.
I work with a Non-Profit organization, The Universal Peace Federation, which is in General Status at the UN. We hold Peace Forums and American Leadership Forums with various local and national leaders for the purpose of educating about the Principles of Peace, starting within the individual, the family, the tribe, the nation and eventually at the world level.
Stephanie has come to several of our programs. She has uplifted and inspired a high spirit at our meetings with her singing. She is an accomplished and professional singer. Her heart and love for others is evident in her performance. Her songs are always well chosen for the occasion. She has been a precious gift to us on these multiple occasions.
Since the COVID problem, we have not been having public meetings, instead, meet on ZOOM, or other internet platforms. Once we start again, I hope that Stephanie will come to sing for us again, and we will invite others to enjoy her singing.
Stephanie is always very professional and engages with others in our programs. She is well liked and respected, not just for her voice but also for her quality of character. She is someone who truly lives for the sake of others, giving what she has of herself to uplift and empower others.
I feel blessed to be considered her friend.
After working with Stephanie Thompson as my Vocal coach, my singing improved dramatically.I would highly recommend Stephanie if you’re a singer at any level.I had better breath support and my natural voice really came out so that I was singing more freely and my voice was stronger. Now I love singing even more than ever because I’m so comfortable with my technique and my confidence level is through the roof. She has the ability to really delve into your voice and bring out the best voice you have!
