PROGRAMS FOR SINGING TEACHERS
Which feels most right for you?
Membership
You have experience and want to keep learning with a like-minded community.
You are not alone.
Teaching singing can be an isolating endeavor. When something doesn't click with a student, it doesn't take long for imposter syndrome, doubt, and frustration to creep in. Then, on top of the teaching part of your job, you're also running a business, which comes with its own set of challenges.
At Vocal Advancement, we believe you shouldn't have to figure out teaching on your own. Whether you've had success as a teacher or are just starting out, we invite you to train with us. Here, you can master both the philosophy and practicality of teaching singing alongside a community that cares about your success. Which program feels the most right for you?
