The Future of Voice Lessons: Integrating Video Coaching into the Voice Studio
In this episode of Voice with Vielka, the focus is on enhancing your teaching by incorporating videos into your lessons. The episode explores how video content can create flexible, engaging learning experiences tailored to meet students where they are, regardless of their schedules.
One example shared is about Sarah, an adult beginner passionate about singing, who struggled to find time for live lessons. By leveraging step-by-step video lessons, Sarah was able to make significant progress despite limited live interaction.
The episode highlights the advantages of asynchronous private video coaching, which offers flexibility for students with busy schedules or those in different time zones. This approach allows teachers to provide high-quality feedback without needing real-time sessions. By reviewing students’ videos and offering personalized advice, you can support their growth, build their confidence, and encourage them to celebrate their wins.
To streamline this process, tools like the Practice Space app are recommended. The app helps track practice, rewards progress with badges and leaderboards, and keeps students motivated. Whether working with beginners or advanced learners, video coaching can easily be integrated into your teaching routine.
