Just wondering... what's a typical lesson like? Is it similar to a piano lesson ? Do you do scales & arpeggios , techniques, pieces ? Is it more difficult than playing instruments ? And would vocal lesson help you improve in your sight-singing ? huh.gif

Depends on the teacher and the purpose.

If you're doing exams, then it'll cover that material.

Otherwise, it'll involve some sort of warm-up material (any of: breathing/notes/scales/folk/songs/advising on technique), then some sort of substance (any of: piece/voice recovery work/various exam items/tone development/technique stretching etc....

Important to get a teacher who covers what you want, at the standard you want, to achieve your goals.

Singing teachers can also be called Voice Coach, Voice teacher, Vocal lessons, and a few other related titles too, for specialisms.

Hope that gives some idea.
