    • Robert, Dad 2 (16 & 13 Years, Worthing)

      My 13 year old son has been attending Vocademy for three years now and loves it. It is great fun as they use modern song material - great for teenagers as it's not stuffy. Vocademy also gives him an opportunity to meet new friends. His performing confidence has improved greatly since his time there which is illustrated at the end of term gig where they sing with a live band, which all the kids love. Vocademy have recently introduced a more formal style of qualification with different levels which I think is a good idea.

    • Emma Mum of 2 from Hove

      My daughter has been attending Vocademy for two years and I think what it essentially offers is a way for children and teenagers to develop their confidence and self-esteem. My children have tried many different classes and clubs and I have found that performing arts clubs in particular can be very competitive and sometimes cliquey. Vocademy is very different to this, the environment and atmosphere is really positive and my daughter walked out of the first class with five new best friends! I think it’s a great way for teenagers to be able to work on their confidence, social skills and creativity.

    • Martine, Mum to Megan (almost 13!), Portsmouth

      Megan has been goes to Vocademy once a week, and has been going for almost 18 months now - she absolutely loves it. Our particular tutor is lovely with them - a fabulous teacher - and the children thoroughly enjoy it. The children enjoy working together, and I think there are definite advantages to group work such as learning harmonies. There are only four in her group at the moment so they all get a lot of individual attention.
