Hi Lisa and everyone with voice issue advice, I really liked your ideas for the classroom music teacher. My dilemma is that I teach approximately 50 individual voice lessons a week and I'm trying different techniques to "save" my voice. I've been constantly hoarse for years but recently I had some speaking lessons with a teacher to work on taking out glottal strokes on words that begin with vowels and being more aware of how I'm supporting my speaking voice with the same energy as for singing. I met Randy B. be of our Vocalist in Chicago and he gave me some pointers too. I was also directing a church choir and doing Sunday morning music leading, but I've let go of that job, so I'm hoping that will give me a little more vocal rest in prep for the week of teaching all the voice lessons. If you, or anyone has a specific list of "what to do's" for the private voice teacher I would love to see it! Deanna in Edgewood (mooo the black angus across the street like to vocalize too)
