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.

Very Professional, Punctual, Strong Work Ethic, Patient and Easy Going.
Ron was initially hired for voice lessons (voice control/speech) for our son. We knew that we made the right choice after the first visit as Ron suggested that he shift gears from doing voice lessons with our son to working as his speech coach to help our son with his speech impediments and confidence building. Well with five sessions in, we couldn’t be happier. We are seeing major progress with our teenage son and he is very comfortable and happy with what Ron has brought to the table. Ron always goes over and beyond to help. He is constantly presenting better ways to help him while keeping things interesting. We HIGHLY recommend Ron for all the services that he offers!

Nancy is truly a once-in-a-lifetime master teacher. She is endlessly perceptive, positive, and clear. After our sessions, my voice has made huge improvements-- and I've also found greater pleasure in using it and deeper understanding of how the voice works. I've learned such a tremendous amount from her as a teacher, and from her presence as a human being.

The Ottley Music School has been instrumental in helping my daughter learn to read music and perform appropriate but challenging pieces. The teachers encourage each child to reach their potential while providing top notch instruction. We are happy with the quality of instruction and performance opportunities our child has received at Ottley Music School.

Susan approaches music education from a true place of creativity and her program is all encompassing. In a short time I was able to advance on my dream of singing, songwriting, playing ukulele and fulfilling my dream of being a musician, as an adult. There is technique, depth and magic in our sessions, and I developed a more authentic voice that serves me as an artist overall. Her sessions supported me through an especially challenging period of my life, filled with transitions and uncertainties, and they become fodder for songwriting!
