Isaac - Get to know your vocal coach

I'm Isaac Akers, a Berklee College of Music graduate and singing tutor with over three years of teaching experience. As a vocalist, I've appeared on American Idol and have had the opportunity to perform background vocals for renowned artists including Jennifer Hudson, John Legend, Chance the Rapper, and Bobby McFerrin. I bring my professional performance experience into personalized lessons designed around each student's individual voice and goals. I specialize in Pop, Musical Theater, and Jazz, with a focus on foundational vocal technique, audition preparation, harmony, improvisation, and more. In my lessons, I take a well-rounded approach to vocal development, helping singers strengthen their pitch, musicality, breath support, stylistic choices, and performance ability. Just as importantly, I help students discover and develop the unique qualities that make their voice stand out. Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate vocalist, my goal is to help you build confidence, strengthen your technique, and become a more expressive and versatile performer. Join me for engaging online lessons where we'll develop your voice, explore your artistry, and help you become the strongest and most confident singer you can be.

The Student and Tutor engaged in a comprehensive vocal session, focusing on warm-ups, scale exercises, and breath control techniques. They analyzed the Student's performance of a song, providing feedback on vowel shape, vibrato usage, and consonant articulation for live performance. Future lessons will concentrate on developing a consistent warm-up routine, advanced breath support, and adapting recorded vocal styles for live settings.
