Hire the best singing teachers in Coorparoo

Like reading and music, singing is also an art of expression. It involves using the voice and the body to produce musical sounds. The word singing comes from the Latin word "cantus". Beyond the fact that learning to sing is a fun pastime, singing also has health benefits. It helps to relieve stress, improve general wellbeing and feel better by expelling air from the lungs through the use of the diaphragm and normal exhalation. Besides the breathing part, singing can work different parts of the body (stomach, back, neck and face). People take singing lessons for all sorts of reasons. You don't have to be a professional singer or superstar to benefit from singing lessons. On the other hand, people who sing can sing well if they decide to take singing lessons. This is because the singing course is given by a vocal coach and a singing teacher.

Training and studies to become a singing teacher

To become a singing teacher, you need to take music courses. This allows you to master the various vocal techniques. At university, the Bachelor's degree in musicology and the Bachelor's degree in arts and music allow you to expand your musical culture and acquire theoretical skills on the history of music. There are many private music schools that offer professional training in contemporary music, such as the Centre de formation de l'enseignant de la danse et de la musique (CEFEDEM). They allow you to take a competitive examination to become a certified teacher (CA). It is not necessary to have a diploma to become a singing teacher in a national conservatory, a public music school or an academy, you only need to have professional experience in singing. However, having the Diploma of Musical Studies (DEM), the State Diploma of Artistic Teaching Assistant or the National Diploma of Professional Orientation in Dramatic Art (DNOP) gives you a better chance of getting a job as a music teacher. There is also the CAPES degree with a music option and the MEEF Master's degree (teaching, education and training). It is also possible to become a singing teacher if the person is a former singer or a singing professional. In addition to a passion for music, a singing teacher must have the ability to listen, rigour and discipline to be a good teacher. Mastery of an instrument (especially the piano and the violin) and of different repertoires and musical genres can help him/her to transmit the art of singing to his/her pupils. They must also be pedagogical, good listeners, understanding, patient and helpful. They know how to adapt to all styles of music. The ability to lead and the didactic and pedagogical knowledge are also essential in this profession.

The scope of a singing teacher's work

The singing teacher can give singing lessons to adults and children. Based on each student's current skills, he or she teaches them the different singing, expressive and interpretive techniques as well as the musical reading they need to know. Whether they are amateurs or professionals, they can help them to sing well. They can also offer individual or group lessons. Based on a classical musical repertoire, the singing teacher can help the student to find his or her voice (timbre, tone, register, vocal power, vocal cords, etc.) through various exercises and to interpret a musical repertoire adapted to his or her musical styles, level and voice. His classes focus on breathing work, sound games, articulation relaxation and balance exercises. During each session, he plans a lesson of individual and group singing, teaches breathing and vocal warm-up exercises as well as vocal techniques with lots of repetition. He then teaches improvisation, melody and harmony and monitors the progress of each student. Afterwards, he helps the students to prepare for auditions or exams and organises performances and singing in the recording studio. He is also able to programme gospel, choral and opera singing sessions. A singing teacher can currently organise lessons at home, in a singing workshop or online. In addition, he or she is able to suggest personalized accompaniments according to the needs of each student.

Why use a singing teacher?

A singing teacher is essential for learning or improving vocal techniques. He or she combines know-how and experience to learn how to sing in a fun and effective way. He can coach beginners, advanced singers, actors and more. He is able to adapt his learning techniques (breathing, vocal expression, voice placement, improvisation, reading of scores, etc.) according to the objectives and voice of each student (soprano, tenor, etc.). He masters different methods in order to guide his students and can adopt a modern and singular approach in order to evaluate them technically and artistically and to optimise their vocal interpretation. Jazz singing, contemporary singing (rock, rap, pop, blues, reggae...) and traditional singing are no longer new to him. In addition, he can organise performances that allow students to experience new things on stage. The singing teacher can help the student to develop a good voice and self-confidence to be able to sing in front of an audience. They can help students to develop an artistic intelligence that will allow them to be autonomous in their practice, to have their own creativity and to become a true artist (composer, singer, choir director, chorister...).
