Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.
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.

In 1984 I was in a bad car wreck. The resulting coma left me with a severely monotone voice for years. I worked with speech
-therapists and later professional singers. I had nearly given up! I discovered David Way just before the pandemic, his education and experience were evident I was impressed with the way he evaluated my abilities and deficits. He spent time coming up with a plan. When we started working together I could only sing five notes; now I’m able to sing two octaves easily! His talent is impressive…

Amazing Voice/Sing Lessons

Nicolette was such a great instructor! She was always very knowledgeable and patient with me. I learned so much from her. The lessons were started off with warm-ups/breathing exercises. Then we would work on a song that we chose together. I would sing as she made notes on what I did and didn't do well and then we'd go over those notes. The lessons were always VERY constructive and she would always leave me with exercises to help me improve between our weekly lessons. 10/10

Cathy is a pleasure to work with. I came to Cathy with no singing experience. She always takes the time to answer my questions and to develop a lesson plan specific to my needs. During my time with her she has helped me to expand my vocal range and boost my confidence to perform in public. She even provided me with some CDs with vocal exercises and warmups. I’d definitely recommend Cathy!

It is not just about hitting the right note, it is about relaxing and really feeling the joy of the music, of the perfect sound. It is an approach that is both unique and effective.

He is very concerned about making sure your creative vision comes to life in the best way possible. He has incredibly insightful advice but never tries to insert his ego into your project. He genuinely cares about his clients and wants to see them succeed.

Within ONE lesson, Howard could pinpoint EXACTLY what my trouble areas are, and not only is he able to articulate a very clear plan for dealing with those, but he has also helped me with the burdening amount of pain that plagues my joints and muscles when I play something technically demanding! Furthermore, he is very focused, understanding, knowledgeable and gentle! After having many verbally.... difficult teachers whose teaching involved quite a bit of negative reinforcement, it is an absolute pleasure and an eye opening experience to have a patient, understanding teacher. Some people may learn quite well in that fashion, and there was a period of time when I actually believed, or rather was brainwashed into thinking that being verbally berated would serve as motivation. But now I see quite clearly that is not the case: I learn a lot better and I am more motivated to practice when I find it a pleasure to go to my piano lessons! Thank you, Howard for all your dedication, patience and knowledge!
