Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.
How much are singing lessons?
Singing lessons cost$50 to $90 per hour on average. Prices vary depending on the teacher's location, experience, reputation, and whether you're taking a private or group lesson. Group lessons typically cost less per person than private lessons, but you may not get as much personal attention and feedback in a group setting.
Some singing teachers charge a flat rate for a specified increment of time, typically in 30-minute, 45-minute, or 60-minute increments.
Many coaches offer package deals to purchase 2 to 10+ lessons at a time and reduce the cost per lesson.
Do singing lessons work?
Singing lessons won't change your sound completely, but they can help improve your sound by strengthening your vocal cords and improving your range and tone.
What do singing lessons teach you?
Singing lessons involve more than just your voice. A vocal coach will teach you how to hold and improve your posture, which gives your diaphragm optimal room to expand. You also learn proper breathing techniques and how to use your breath to improve your tone. Singing lessons also help you improve your diction—the way you articulate your words when singing—as well as your ability to match specific pitches.
Can adults take singing lessons?
Yes, adults can absolutely take singing lessons. While starting singing lessons at a young age gives you more time to develop your voice, it's never too late to begin learning and improve your singing voice.

My daughter has been learning piano with Drew for almost eight years. Drew is incredibly knowledgeable about music, and his passion towards music is so contagious. He is such a great teacher for my daughter!

Seven years ago we met Tim Juillet. He became my son, William’s guitar teacher. He is the most patient, passionate, and genuine instructor. His teaching style is very encouraging and light hearted. He doesn’t shame the kids or guilt trip them. He tries to show them his passion for music hoping that one day it will rub off onto them and that they will catch the vision. It took my son about a year and a half for the guitar cords to finally be arranged in his brain where it made sense to him. Through Tim’s encouragement, he did not give up.
Tim also teaches voice lessons and has a performing arts degree. About four years ago, William went to an opera. Tim was able to speak to the experience and passionately help William to see the beauty of it. Now my son has been taking voice lessons for the past year because he wants to do more with theatre.
Above all else, Tim’s love for Christ and his devotion to mentor young people is most evident in my son’s life. Tim not only has challenged William in learning guitar and voice, but also challenged his views on life.
Thank you, Tim!!

Taking piano lessons from Patti is something I look forward to each week. I am committed to practice every day for an hour & a half. And although I will probably never play in Carnegie Hall, I will be able to play carols, oldies but goodies and in general enjoy the music! Patti is making it an enjoyable and attainable experience for me! I recommend taking lessons the way Patti teaches them whether you are young or older (like I am!).
