<<1/2 hour lessons are not too short, depending on the level of the student. If it is some where you are putting the voice together and working mainly on vocalises or it's a rehab patient, they are fine.

I guess I run my hour lessons differently. I think teaching requires some explanation and not just activity. If all a student does is sing during a lesson, then there may not be a lot of teaching going on. No offense to folks who teach 1/2 hours; I find such lessons cramp my teaching and the student's learning. We don't have time to try things out together more than once.
