The impact of a voice teacher extends far beyond the music. 💙🎶

At the heart of voice teaching is the trust singers place in those who guide, encourage, and support them throughout their artistic journeys. A reminder of the meaningful role voice teachers play in shaping both voices and lives.

🌟 NATS Membership Referral Spotlight | September 🌟

We’re celebrating our September membership referral winner, Hilerie Klein Rensi! 🎉

This NATS member helped welcome new voices into our community—and we asked them to share why they love NATS. 💙

🎤 September Winner — Hilerie Klein Rensi
"As a young eager singer, NATS gave me a place to test what I could do beyond the walls of my conservatory, to meet experts in the field and receive the kind of feedback I craved. As a teacher, Chapter President, and Auditions Coordinator, I’ve watched my own students stretch their definition of what’s possible through NATS Auditions while finding colleagues who speak my language and continually educate, encourage, and inspire me.

Now, as a mentor to voice teachers, I love inviting a newer teacher into NATS who thinks, “What could I possibly have to offer?” and watching them discover just how much they already know and how much our singing community needs and appreciates them.

That’s what I love about NATS: we arrive as singers, students, teachers, and mentors… and somehow, we all keep becoming more of each."

Know a voice teacher, singer, researcher, or vocal professional who should be a NATS member? Refer them today! Your referral helps grow our community—and you could be our next Membership Referral Spotlight winner. 🌟
