Singing Lessons for Kids

When should kids start taking singing lessons? There's no single correct answer for this. However, it's more important that a child loves to sing and develops a passion for getting better at it than it is for him or her to get a private vocal coach. Kids have unique learning needs, so if you do decide to hire someone, the vocal coach should offer tailored vocal techniques and exercises, as not to put too much pressure on a child. The worst thing you can do is over-coach, and negate the child's passion.

In addition to nurturing a child's passion for singing, it's important to keep his or her voice healthy as they grow and get stronger vocals. The main purpose of children's singing lessons is to make the learning process fun. As a student begins to enjoy the learning and improvement process, the instructor can work on advancing the fundamentals, techniques, and practice of singing.

Singing Lessons for Teens

TakeLessons also offers vocal coaching for teenagers who tend to be the most receptive to learning and improvement. As a teenager experiences the changes that result from puberty, their motivation, their techniques, their overall ability and potential for development drastically improves.

As a child matures into a teenager, it becomes increasingly more important for them to get private lessons, because this is when they can realize they can pursue a career - full-time or part-time gigs - in singing. Having a well-seasoned instructor coach the teen and give him or her the right guidance and support can help make their hopes of singing for a living more practical and realistic. A good coach can refer the student to the right information and people resources.

Singing Lessons for Adults & Seniors

It's never too late to get private lessons in order to cultivate your love for singing. It's never too late to pursue a career in singing. Our coaches can help adults and seniors take their singing skills to the next level so that they can earn paid gigs at bars, parties and weddings, or even teach singing as a private instructor.

Most adults are too busy with family and career to dedicate as much time to learning or improving their voice like when they were younger, so a private coach can help accelerate their learning in the limited time they have. Senior citizens can also benefit from singing lessons as a way to maximize enjoyment as they settle into retirement.

A new study on the long-term benefits of music lessons reports that older adults who took lessons at a young age process the sounds of speech faster than those who did not, regardless of whether it was a violin, a harmonica, a ukulele, or any other instrument.

The study found that participants who had four to 14 years of musical training had faster responses to speech sounds than participants without any training — even though no one in the first group had played an instrument for about 40 years.

Another study showed that practicing a musical instrument can slow down the aging process. The study of adults ranging from ages 60 to 83 revealed that those who played music regularly had better verbal and non-verbal memory, verbal fluency, visuomotor speed, and cognitive flexibility.

Even if you’ve never played a musical instrument or shown any interest, it’s never too late to start. Even latecomers can fall in love with something as timeless as the Violin. Age isn’t a relevant factor, when it comes to curiosity, pleasure, and determination.
