Thursday 2nd November 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
Justin Stoney's course promises to be comprehensive and insightful; one of the key topics he will cover is sustainable and adaptable vocal technique, which is crucial for any voice teacher who wants to help their students develop healthy vocal habits that will last a lifetime.
In addition to technical skills, Mr. Stoney will also discuss the importance of creativity in teaching. As every student is unique, it is essential for voice teachers to be able to adapt their teaching style to suit the needs of each individual. This requires not only technical knowledge but also the ability to think creatively and find new approaches to teaching.
Another important aspect of successful voice teaching is the character and integrity of the teacher; Mr. Stoney will discuss the importance of being a positive role model for your students and building strong relationships based on trust and respect.
Effective communication is also essential for voice teachers, and Mr. Stoney will offer insights into how to develop skillful communication techniques to help students achieve their goals. And of course, he will also touch on the business side of running a voice studio, offering advice on how to maintain a thriving studio while balancing the demands of teaching and administrative tasks.
This online short course promises to be a valuable resource for any voice teacher looking to improve their skills and build a successful career!

Nonetheless, musicianship and the foundations of music theory are still relevant to the teaching and coaching of singers and this course aims to empower voice teachers and coaches with skills to support the fundamental musicianship development of their students.
