Voice Teachers, Listen Up! Voice Teaching and Voice Learning Facilitation are two VERY different things…

by Robert Sussuma | Mar 10, 2021 | Pedagogy

Sure, we call ourselves voice teachers – which is fine, that’s the accepted term in the marketplace, but just because “teacher” is in the title, does that really have to be what we do? No. As Marie Forleo says, “Sell them what they want, give them what they...

In Praise of Variance – The Secret to Deep Learning

by Robert Sussuma | Mar 10, 2021 | Learning

VOCAL CONTROL – A new way to look at it! (aka You’ve got it all wrong!)
