WHO WE ARE


Resonance is a company led by Louise Kerr whose excellence depends on a small team of hand picked associates.

We are all professional performers and have long track records in either teaching vocal skills or in corporate training.

We offer a range of courses for educational establishments, companies and individuals.
Our highly adaptive approach can be tailored to meet most needs. In the last year, for example, we have designed courses for newly qualified teachers, civil servants, corporate executives, doctors, social workers, call centres, and university academics.

We also taught young people involved in the theatre and public speaking and others in need of interview skills.
