To keep track of your sessions and vocal development you will receive a personalised vocal log which you will update with your vocal coach during each online class. This will help you to see your progress, revise, and rehearse in between your weekly vocal coaching sessions.
Once you have completed all of your coaching sessions you can keep your completed vocal log as proof of your progress, and you will receive a certificate of completion!
