Different Ages
Hi all i just wondered if any of the tutors have different structures to lessons depending on the age. For instance, i find someone of 13 is completely different to 16 in terms of concentrating and wanting to learn as well? Or is this just me! Any help would be appreciated |

Hi Natalie I do find that the younger ones get tired quickly, especially from vocal exercises. I have a 10year old student and she likes certain exercises but not for too long. She comes alive when singing so now we do more singing than exercises. I would try more singing and see what happens. Seems to help me! Chioma |

Hi Natalie, I tent to start the younger students off with half hour sessions as they do seem to get tired quickly. Once they've got into the swing of things I then up the time to an hour. Singing songs more than exercises (like Chioma said), is a good way to go until they are a little older and understand the point of exercises a little bit more. I hope that helps! Talena |
