You definitelly have to watch out for that, specially in male singer who

If your velum is raised there is absolutely NO WAY you will have any sort of
nasality
so, if you understand that concept and "try to feel nasal" your voice will
probably have the
the brightness and squillo needed for the high notes. Sounds like your
teacher is doing
a good job then.
