Find Your Voice! Confidence Boosting and Tone Enhancing lessons through Tailored Coaching with Emily

Emily and John focused on vocal techniques to improve John's mixed voice, including breathing exercises and vocal placement strategies. John practiced box breathing and experimented with techniques like the "candle" and "sprinkler" to control airflow. They also worked on incorporating a "squeak" quality into his singing to blend chest and head voice registers, and John was advised to practice these techniques in short intervals to avoid vocal strain.

Emily Miller led a vocal training lesson with John Ellis, focusing on key areas such as breath control, vocal warm-ups, head voice exercises, and articulation. John demonstrated notable progress in his box breathing technique and vocal range. For homework, Emily tasked him with the 'Listen to me...' exercise to refine accuracy and pitch, and she will be developing new exercises specifically for vocal warmth in their upcoming lesson.

Emily and Eleanor worked on vocal warm-ups, resonance exercises, and applied these techniques to the Benson Boon song. Eleanor practiced breathing exercises, vocal agility, and worked on safely incorporating a belted sound into the chorus. Homework includes resonance and chest voice exercises to improve vocal power and safely reach higher pitches.

Emily led a vocal lesson with a student from Columbia College Chicago, focusing on vocal warm-ups, breathing exercises including box breathing, resonance techniques, and straw phonation to improve their vocal control and power. They discussed phrasing and storytelling as the next focus, planning to analyze songs and explore their unique vocal style. Due to technical issues, the lesson was cut short and rescheduled for the next day.

Emily and a dedicated learner from Sunnyside High School structured a daily vocal practice schedule. During their lesson, they worked through various warm-up and vocal exercises to improve the learner's breathing, resonance, pitch accuracy, and vocal range. They addressed head and chest voice techniques and introduced new exercises for diction and pitch control. Emily assigned follow-up practice and will provide visual aids for complex exercises.

Emily and Eleanor worked on vocal exercises, including resonance checks, breathing techniques, and articulation drills to improve breath control, diction, and vocal placement. Eleanor practiced the "Beautiful Things" song by Benson Boone, focusing on rhythm and pitch. Emily assigned Eleanor to review the articulation exercise for the next session.
