Singing lessons highlights
I always use a student-centered and progressive approach, combining technical skill-building with creative expression. My lessons blend music theory, ear training, and performance practice in a fun, engaging manner. For kids, I incorporate games, visual aids, and interactive activities to sustain interest and foster confidence. For adults, I focus on goal-oriented learning, repertoire tailored to personal interests, and practical techniques for improvement. I highly value consistent feedback, positive reinforcement, and step-by-step progression to ensure steady growth and lasting enjoyment of music. As an ESL teacher, I apply a learner-centered approach that adapts to age, skill level, and learning style. For kids, I also utilize games, visual aids, songs, and storytelling to make ESL, reading, and writing lessons interactive and enjoyable. For adults, I prefer real-life contexts, discussions, and practical exercises to enhance communication skills and confidence. I find it important to focus on phonics, vocabulary building, grammar, comprehension strategies, and writing structure. I use step-by-step instruction, consistent feedback, and engaging activities that encourage active participation and long-term retention.

Singing concept taught by Florence Marie
During a singing lesson, Florence guided Jack in refining his vocal resonance, clarity, and breath control. Jack diligently practiced exercises aimed at engaging his chest muscles and preventing throat strain, applying these to his original song and beginning work on a new composition. Florence concluded the lesson by recommending that Jack internalize the techniques acquired and integrate them into his regular practice.

Vocal Resonance
Florence guided Jack in a singing lesson, where they refined his vocal technique and prepared an original song for a potential live performance. The lesson concentrated on vocal exercises to enhance breath control and resonance, alongside addressing structural elements of the piece. Jack received homework to practice breath control and vocal power in preparation for their next lesson.

Vocal Warm-up: 'Coo' Exercise
Florence and Alicia collaborated on vocal techniques for Alicia's wedding performance of 'Hallelujah'. Their singing lesson focused on crucial aspects like mouth opening, clear enunciation, diaphragmatic breath control, and sustaining notes. To enhance control and expression, they fine-tuned the song's tempo. Florence committed to preparing the adjusted tempo for their next lesson on Wednesday at 9 a.m., while Alicia will practice and use tea with honey to soothe her voice.

Florence worked with a student from Arizona State University in Tempe on vocal techniques to improve their singing of "Hallelujah," focusing on mouth opening, breath control, and note accuracy. They practiced vocal exercises and worked through the song line by line, with Florence providing real-time feedback. The learner was assigned to practice the techniques learned, particularly the "coo" sound and mouth-opening exercises, before their next lesson on Friday at 6:15 p.m.
