Mika Hale is a classically trained opera and jazz singer. A child vocal prodigy, she has over 20 years of experience in professional acting and commercial voice work as well as 15 years experience as an acting teacher for students of all ages and backgrounds.
As an actress, Mika’s exceptional talent was recognized at the age of 8, when she was the youngest student to be accepted to study at the notable Aaron Copland camp. Her work and performances have been sought after by major brands such as Honda and McDonalds, and have been seen at a wide range of major events, from New York theaters to the Super Bowl.
Mika is dedicated to helping students achieve their dreams in the arts, particularly in acting, singing and musical theater. She has also been a teacher at Northern Academy of the Arts, from 2017 to 2020, teaching voice, drama and chorus. Mika grew up at a Montessori School herself from the ages of 2-4 where her mother was the principal. She has 2 beautiful daughters aged 14 and 16 and absolutely loves being with little kiddies around that 3-4 age!
Mika will be a full-time teacher at Little Star Home School and will be focusing on teaching English, performance, and her first love - music and singing. Her mission is to recreate 'The Sound of Music' in our little hills at Mount Hope, and to teach Kai and anyone else interested how to develop perfect pitch or at least sing in tune.
