Lessons With A Singing Coach
By Spa guru | November 29, 2009
This post will help you to find the best vocal coach for your money by asking 5 simple questions. These questions are used to assess the vocal coach’s experience. For price related quesions refer to this article: cost of singing lessons . Unfortunately some of the best vocal coaches may not have the time to fully respond to all of your questions but this doesn’t mean that they’re not good. If it happens that the singing teacher doesn’t have the time to answer all your questions, you could try out a few lessons and get the answers you’re looking for then. It’s best to treat these questions as suggestions.
Questions for your singing teacher:
- How many years have you been teaching? Obviously teachers with more experience will tend to charge more for lessons. Also if the voice coach has been teaching for a while you might try and ask former students about their experiences.
- Where did you get your singing education? You want a voice teacher who has received high quality practical training and who has first-hand performance experience. The singing teacher does not need a degree from an expensive music school to be a great vocal coach so you’ll have to use your own judgement here. More important than a fancy degree is that he or she knows how to pass on her knowledge to her students.
- Do you perform live? If yes, where? Should you have the possibility to listen to the voice coach sing, then do yourself a favor and go. It’s a opportunity to discover things about his or her personality that you might not otherwise.
- Do you work with different voice types and teach different music styles? If you want assistance with a certain voice type or singing style, then you’ll want to ensure that the singing teacher has the necessary experience.
- Where are your lessons conducted? Lessons could take place in a number of different locations including the coach’s home, your home, a studio or a music school. The location should be convenient for you to get to.
- What songs do your students sing? You want to find out if the vocal coach is interested in the same kind of music that you enjoy. If she only assigns songs and doesn’t allow the students to choose, think about how you feel about her preferred style of music before you commit.
Be wary of singing teachers who offer “a life altering method for singing “. Teaching people how to sing is by no means a new profession so it’s much better to go with a tried and tested singing method than to waste your money on experiments. The only exception to this advice that I can think of is Per Bristow’s revolutionary Sing With Freedom program. (Sing With Freedom review). Good luck with your singing and have fun!
