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.

Dr. Bela made my son excited about piano lessons again. My son has been taking piano for almost 8 years and we found he wasn't being challenged or motivated anymore until starting lessons with Dr. Bela recently. So glad we found Ezra Entertainment and Dr. Bela!

I have been using Hannah Anders Vocal Studio for over a decade, as a place to send my clients (singers) before they come record with me in the Studio. I also have her come to the Studio and Vocal produce with me. She is exceptional at her job, incredibly talented, and a joy to be around.

Didi Benami has helped me with my voice more than any other vocal coach I’ve ever had. As she worked with me, lightbulbs kept going off about things other teachers were trying to teach me in the past that never fully clicked. Suddenly it all made sense. The way Didi explained how the voice works made it easy for me to understand what was going on and how to navigate out of my bad habits. I have been able to sing better than ever and have a clear path to strengthening my voice and being able to sing the way I’ve always wanted.
What’s cool is that I’ve actually watched Didi grow as a singer and have seen first hand how hard she has worked at her craft. Over the years, she’s studied with the best vocal coaches around and it shows in her coaching. Once she began working with Ron Anderson, I could immediately tell the difference in the strength, range and confidence in her voice. It was clear that Ron’s training was making a major impact on Didi. It is expressed in her teaching and how she passes on her knowledge and experience to her students. She really cares and is extremely dedicated to seeing her students succeed.
I recommend Didi Benami to any one I know looking for good vocal coaching.

Both my sons take drum lessons from Lael. He was recommended to us by a local music teacher. They absolutely love it. They have learned so much and look forward to their lesson each week. Lael makes it fun and engaging. I can’t say enough good things about what he gives to the experience of learning. I would highly recommend him.

I’ve been absolutely thrilled with Dr. Peter! ! From the very first lesson, he has shown incredible patience, warmth, and skill in engaging my 6 yr old grandson, making every session fun and inspiring. Dr. Peter’s teaching style is perfectly tailored to a young beginner, using creative games and encouragement to build confidence and a love for music. My grandson has already learned so much, from basic notes to simple songs, and he looks forward to every lesson with excitement. Dr. Peter’s professionalism, clear communication, and genuine care for his progress make this experience truly exceptional. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing and talented piano instructor!
