Every week feels like a conference, it’s nice to be able to speak your mind
N. International student Goldsmith’s Vocal Ensemble March 25
My experience and gains from participating in GVE were far beyond my expectations.
Firstly, in the first semester, within this warm community of GVE, I experienced emotional relaxation and psychological relief.Because for most international students, the first semester is very challenging. We were able to alleviate the frustration of the second language in the process of singing. And in Brenda's healing energy from the inside out and her smile, I quickly found confidence. So in the second semester, I invited new classmates to join this meaningful course.
The second point is that in the vocal ensemble, I enhanced my experience in teamwork and mutual assistance. This was an experience I lacked before, as most of the time I performed with the band or as a soloist. By exploring new singing methods and styles together in the team, my skills and experience were expanded very efficiently. These valuable experiences will be of great benefit to the growth of my personal music career.
Thirdly, as a vocal coach myself, while studying at GVE, I also absorbed Brenda's outstanding teaching experience and methods. She has a teaching style that is characterized by equality, encouragement, positivity, empathy, emphasis on reflection, and inspiration. By experiencing her teaching process, I believe I can better integrate the advantages of different teaching methods from both the East and the West, and have a more international and open perspective to inspire my students.
I hope GVE can continue to nourish and influence batch after batch of students🌻. I'm grateful to Brenda❤️! I'm very glad to be a member of GVE🎤！

Dear Brenda Rattray,
I sang in your Jazz/Gospel Choir while I attended Sydenham High School GDST, I believe I was in year 8/9. This had a lasting impact on myself, and I have been captivated by music ever since.
I have now been leading a gospel choir since June 2024. We partook in auditions for a national competition and have been named as finalists, with the event taking place this month March 25.
We would love to have you observe our performance from an expert's point of view and possibly provide us with any advice.
Very Best Wishes,
