BugByte Studios 4456 Vandever Avenue, San Diego, CA 92120

"This place is fantastic. I'm a 31-year-old software developer and decided to take singing lessons on a whim to see if I could feel confident in my voice (cause life is short, ya know?). I'm very much a beginner vocalist, so when I booked my first lesson with BugByte Studios, I was absolutely terrified. However, I started working with Juliet and Kinnie and immediately noticed how kind and patient they were. They provided a safe space during lessons and eased my anxiety about singing in front of someone. I've learned a lot from them since starting a couple months ago. I'm starting to feel a little more confident in my singing voice, and my wife says I'm sounding a lot better already! I also really appreciate that they don't just teach vocals but instruments as well, if you want. Currently trying to learn the guitar and learned some great guitar tips from Juliet! They switch students around with new teachers every so often to let students learn from different people, which is pretty cool. Gonna start working with Athena and Giselle next. Had my first session with Giselle the other day and she was great. I highly recommend this place to anybody."

"I've been working with Francesca for a few months now, and I feel I've grown so much. Prior to this I've sparsely attempted to play instruments, but she has taken her knowledge and passion and been able to pass that on to me while constantly reminding me that one day I will be good. And I believe it! I've come a long way to establish a regular practice routine, still working on it with her, and I have high expectations for the future. I recommend her to my own people and I recommend her to you."

"I have had the experience of a lifetime, learning music and singing from Francesca. Ive always dreamed of composing and singing my own original songs, but I was intimidated at first - I didn't have a background in music and felt intimidated with how much their was to learn (and in so many different areas!) I cannot say enough good things about Francesca and the team at BugByte Studios. They are kind, intelligent, thoughtful, focused and incredibly passionate folks, and my experience with Francesca and her dedicated team has been truly magical, a once in a life time opportunity and I recommend that any one who has an interest in learning music, take a lesson from Francesca or her team, and you will see for yourself why BugByte is the best studio around. The environment is safe and welcoming and I really feel the personal connection in my lessons. Francesca designed a curriculum specifically for my goals and my needs, and that makes every lesson so much fun, and she also finds creative ways to challenge me outside the classroom. Ensuring that the educational experience is enlightening and interesting , all the while being productive for my own development as an artist/singer, is just one of the many things that puts Francesca very much in a league of her own. I am blown away, every lesson, by not only Francesca's vast knowledge and passion, but effortless dexterity in navigating the complexities of singing and music, and expressing it in a way that has not only allowed me to learn it so quickly, but allowed me to so genuinely feel immersed in the subject and all it’s beauty - I have never before met an educator who has been able to do what Francesca does, she is truly a master. I am eternally grateful for her and the opportunity to work together. It’s always been my dream to learn music and I couldn’t have imagined learning anything would be this much fun!"

"I have been seeing Francesca for a year now. I LOVE going to my voice lessons because I know I'm going to get so much more than just a voice lesson. She always welcomes me with an open heart and love. The studios are a nice cheerful, safe space to be vulnerable while singing. My teacher is my biggest cheerleader, that's always available for a hug or advise. I'm lucky to call her my friend now. Francesca is my voice teacher and life coach. She makes me work hard and always WANT to learn more. I really couldn't recommend her more highly. She's who you need to see if you are looking to expand your artistry. I was so glad she took my call and welcomed me into her studio. It's evident that she loves what are she does. While every pro singer in town ends up at BugByte, I also see Francesca and her assistants working with beginners. So there's room for everyone there, unsurprisingly."
