Homework Offered
Students should use the materials provided and do warm-up and vocal exercises on a consistent basis. Students should ideally practice on their own for 20-30 minutes 4 times a week to learn the notes and pitches to their song and practice techniques learned in class. Everyone has different time constraints so this is just a suggestion for ideal practice. Students will submit videos each week based on the instructor assignment and prompt for the week and will receive personalized feedback so they can make adjustments to their technique. Video responses should be sent in by Friday at 8pm Eastern to receive a timely response. Students will also have the opportunity to use both the Outschool classroom and Flipgrid to share performances with the class, including a flip grid Final Recital. They will also respond to the vocal prompt of the week sharing their experiences working with the material and topic through written discussion or video progress. They can learn from each other's progress videos of the vocal exercises of the week and share their experiences.
1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
