a consummate educationalist...

Rachel Nicholls is a passionate advocate of music education: she is regularly in demand for masterclasses and as a consultant, scheduling these activities around her performing career.

Rachel coaches at the National Opera Studio and at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. She is also a visiting performance coach at the University of York. She is Vocal Consultant for the City of London Choir.

These are rewarding roles for Rachel, and she views them as a way of giving back to the educational establishments which have given so much to her.
