Online Singing Lessons- Skype with me!

Monday, June 21st, 2010

People have been asking, technology has made it simple, so now I am giving online singing lessons.  If you would like to work me via Skype for online singing lessons on your own voice that is now available! It is pretty amazing to think that we could work together from any two places in the world that have internet.  (If you live in Los Angeles, California you are still welcomed to come in for an old fashioned  live lesson ;) )

No longer do I need to be limited to “that voice teacher on my Voice Lesson To Go CDs”.  I actually am a live person and love working one on one with students to help them become the best singers they can be. Don’t think you are too unprofessional or not talented enough.  I so much enjoy to help all types of students no matter their level or vocal style as long as they have an interest in improving their own voice.  I have been teaching over 18 years and have worked with so many wonderful different types of students. (That is what inspired me to make Voice Lessons To Go in the first place).

If you have a Skype account and are looking to study privately one time or ongoing let’s arrange it.   If you don’t have a Skype account get one, they are free!  I will charge $50 for a half hour lesson that you can pay through paypal.  We will set the time (and the time zone) and can meet through our computers.  Of course I am sure you know this but you will need a video camera on your computer so we can see and hear each other.  I will have it all set up by my piano so that we can work with it.  You bring the voice, questions, and the songs.  Whether you want me to help you pick your audition piece, answer specific questions,  work on technique, or advise you on your best suited genre or repertoire- I am game.  We can also discuss your career strategies and options.

If you are looking to work with me or get some direct advice from me about your own singing, and Skype lessons are not for you due to cost or lack of technology- *Remember you can send me your voice with your questions for a Vocal Assessment.  I turn these around real fast so you will receive my Assessment within a couple of days.  The way to send me your voice is to send a link of you singing on youtube, or other site, or you can send me an mp3 attachment. Please don’t worry about making perfect recordings for me.  I know a lot of you are at different levels.  Whether the recording was professionally mastered or not, I can still hear your voice and what you are working with.  If you want an Assessment from me, just sing something and send it.  I have 4 different Vocal Assessments available from 9.99-39.99 depending on the amount of questions and insight you are looking for.  Also I have ongoing packages you can purchase at reduced rates for regular  ongoing Vocal Assessments from me.

My Assessments you can buy directly off of my site: http://voicelessonstogo.com/cart/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3

To purchase online singing lessons via skype, just write me: ariella@voicelessonstogo.com and I will tell you what you need to do, essentially we’ll set up a time and I will bill you through paypal. Easy.

These should help you get the help you need!

Sing well people and thanks for all you support and great feedback!

How to study voice with me?

Saturday, October 18th, 2008

Hi everyone.  I am regularly emailed from people wanting to study voice with me.  First of all, thank you all, I am flattered that you would want to work with me, and know that I do love to teach and very much enjoy working with new students.

But, I live in Los Angeles, so, if you don’t, I will not be able to teach you live.  I do offer a great service called “Your Vocal Assessment” through my website www.voicelessonstogo.com.  There you can send me an mp3, link to, or CD recording of your voice with questions and I will advise you as your “virtual voice teacher”.  I offer one time assessments or different packages for on going students.  This is a great way if you are interested in working with me and do not live in Los Angeles.  What is really fabulous is you can live absolutely anywhere and still take part in the Vocal Assessment program through my site to improve your singing.

If you do live in Los Angeles, and are interested in lessons, or will be coming through LA for a bit and want to work with me.  You can contact me through my site to check my availability, schedule and pricing.

(Of course, if you want to fly me out some where fabulous for some exorbitant amount of money, I would be happy to come and work with you for a set period!  But that just may not work for everyone:)!

Anyway, thanks again to those who have written me about wanting to work with me.

Sing well everyone!
