Daniela led a student from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro through vocal exercises, focusing on breath control, vocal placement, and register transitions. They then applied these techniques to a song performance. The learner specifically worked on reducing throat constriction and improving their mixed voice. For the next lesson, the student will prepare new song options, concentrating on pieces with slightly higher registers to continue expanding their vocal range, and Daniela will review the songs sent.

Devory worked with a Hope Valley singer on vocal techniques to reduce pain and tension, focusing on tongue exercises, vocal placement, and reducing vocal "mass." They explored the concept of "twang" and practiced accessing a more relaxed "opera voice" to minimize strain. For homework, the singer was assigned to practice the 'oo' and 'E' sounds to find a comfortable head voice and will receive an opera melody to practice.
