Ruslana C. says, "I'm an adult who signed up for singing lessons in search of a new hobby and to work through anxiety so that I can start singing at social events. I am 29 y/o and have never tried singing in the past (not even at birthday parties - too nervous to sing!). I found Gabriel through this site and have been taking lessons for about 5 months now. I have already noticed a HUGE difference in my ability to hit the right notes and in my confidence level when singing! I even started singing around family members, which I never would have imagined doing prior to starting lessons with Gabriel. What stands out to me about our lessons: - his level of expertise in bel canto - his ability to explain correct singing techniques in very clear, simple, understandable terms - his ability to make me feel comfortable, I have 0 anxiety when working with him - his patience (we go over parts of songs repeatedly until I get them right, he makes sure we don't move on until I use the proper technique!) - how he tailors lessons to fit his students' preferences. Example: I mentioned I'm interested in learning other genres in addition to bel canto. At any given time, he has me learn two songs - one bel canto song that he chooses based on my voice/skill level and one other song that I choose that isn't necessarily bel canto. - his flexible scheduling. I work full time with an unpredictable schedule. Gabriel is very open to working with my schedule. - he holds optional biannual recitals for all of his students, which are great opportunities to practice performing in front of people. Overall, I plan to continue taking lessons with Gabriel and I highly recommend him as a singing teacher!" Read more

I’ll be honest, it’s really hard to find a vocal coach that knows what they are talking about. It is extremely frustrating wasting money trying to find someone to help you. I specialize in scientific approaches, and pop and classical genres. My expertise is in helping the soprano voice, baritenor, and tenor voice - specifically Bel Canto, Germantic, mixed-voice belting, vocal rehabilitation, and finding flexibility in the voice. My proprietary vocal instruction is better than university level. Please reach out if you have any questions!

What I do: I help people reclaim their personal power, sovereignty and voice! Our voices are more than sound, they are an extension and reflection of who we are, how we feel about ourselves and the world around us. The more of ourselves we can connect with and develop an awareness for, the more we can own and authentically express. Our voices matter, they live at the intersection of our thoughts, emotions, bodies and are uniquely ours and ours to contribute. I empower people to know their sense of innate belonging, wholeness, and self worth and that they are the co creators of what they want to experience, no matter what challenges and obst

Your Singing Lessons questions, answered

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.

How do I find the best singing lessons near me?

Follow these guidelines to help you choose the best singing lessons near you:

  • Check out their reviews on Lessons.com and Google.
  • Get at least three estimates from teachers with similar credentials.
  • Ask for recommendations from others in the local music community.
  • Do a trial meeting or lesson if possible with several teachers to find the best fit for your goals.
  • Ask them about their training and credentials.
  • Ask about what specific methods and techniques they teach.
  • Ask about the specific progress they've made with other students.
  • Make sure their schedule matches your availability.

What questions should I ask when choosing a singing teacher?

Ask these questions to help you choose the best singing teacher for you:

  • How long have you been teaching singing?
  • Can you share any success stories?
  • Do I need to have a good voice already to become a better singer?
  • How long does it typically take to see improvement?
  • Do you offer any package deals?
  • What is your teaching schedule?
  • How long are your singing lessons? 
  • How often should I practice?
  • Do you offer private or group lessons?
  • Where do you teach?
  • Do you offer online lessons using video calling?

Reviews for Los Angeles singing classes

Recent success stories from people in the Los Angeles area.
Carolyn F.
I have been taking lessons from Gabriel for the last 2 years and have seen huge improvements in my vocal abilities. His use of the Bel Canto method has helped me discover things about my voice that I did not know I was capable of. Gabriel always taylors each lesson to what my voice needs at any given moment and is able to adapt what we are working on based on how my voice is feeling that day or what it is capable of doing at any given moment. Not only have I learned to sing better, but he has taught me how to protect my voice by using proper techniques, breathing techniques and vocalizations.When I hear my voice from when I began lessons and now I can't believe the improvement.

There aren’t enough stars to give Debbie the review she deserves! Her vast experience and enthusiasm for her craft are invaluable. Debbie is professional and compassionate and truly cares about my daughter and her journey into the world of acting. Lessons with Debbie have resulted in more confidence and a solid foundation to continue building upon.

Jan has been nothing short of a great teacher and friend to me. Shes critical on where you need to improve and encouraging with your strengths! If you're looking for a teacher with lots of personality, stories, and drive to help you further yourself; you're in the right place.

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!

I'm a 74 year old retired man. I have always loved acting but have had some minor challenges due to bad eye sight and I'm not that computer savvy. Jim helped me learn how to use an I-pad my grand daughter gave me to help me expand fonts to read scripts. Though I'm only doing this so far for a hobby, I can see huge improvement in my ability to memorize scripts and act convincingly. Jim encouraged me to audition for the community senior center's drama club. I couldn't believe it I got right in and enjoying meeting new people (I'm widowed). Jim has been a Godsend. I'm finding new joy and I'm enjoying seeing local theatre productions. I appreciate his kind, patient, and professional matter. Acting lessons with Jim is what got me through the horrible isolation during Covid quarantine. He is also incredibly knowledgable on health such as veganism, breathing/meditation and is encouraging me to get into a healthier lifestyle. My voice/sinuses improved after giving up dairy. I used to get chronic sinusitis. So I feel acting has been beneficial to my overall health. Though Jim is pricier than other teachers in the area... I believe you pay for what you get. The extra money I pay is well worth it. The two other acting coaches I used before Jim...were mediocre and treated me like an invalid. Jim continues to inspire me to be the best I can be in all areas of my life. I consider him a good friend and he is one of the best educators out there.

I had never done anything musical before deciding to take voice lessons with Rickie. I was so nervous but she made me feel so comfortable and helped me really learn technique, find my voice and confidence and fall in love with singing. I moved away and miss my lessons with Rickie so much!
