Singing concept taught by Madeline
During a recent voice lesson, Maddie worked with Megan on enhancing her belting technique for the song "I'd Rather Be Me." The instruction specifically focused on utilizing chest voice and achieving proper vocal placement, with Maddie even adjusting the song's key to better suit Megan's range. Additionally, Megan was informed of Maddie's upcoming departure from the tutoring platform, and they arranged a final lesson for Friday.

The lesson, for a student based in Ardmore, covered head voice, belting, mixing, and vocal runs, with experimentation across different keys to optimize vocal fit. An ear-training exercise, using the national anthem, was assigned, and Maddie plans to follow up via the app to discuss future lessons.

A recent vocal lesson focused on enhancing vocal agility and mastering transitions between head and chest voice. The learner, a student at Duke University, encountered difficulties with voice placement and was feeling unwell during the lesson.
