How long is a lesson?
The typical length for a lesson is 1 to 1.5 hrs...anything longer than this will tire your voice when you're just learning.
You MUST put in the effort!
Homework is essential! You only get out of your voice whatever practice you put into it. It is recommended that you find around 10-30 minutes per day to work on techniques learned in sessions. It is also recommended that you work on your songs 2-5 times a week for around 30-60 minutes.
