MASTER's HAND
homeschool enrichment program
faithfully serving homeschool families since 1998
Vocal Studio
Teacher: Julie Magalong
Ages: 13+
Class size: Minimum of 6
Materials fee: $30 (covers music, downloads/CDs and copies)
Tuition: $35
Prerequisites: Must be able to match pitch, enjoy singing and working in a group
Homework: Practicing their songs weekly – see important note below
Supplies Needed: 3 ring binder or folder with pockets to hold music copies, pencil
COURSE DETAILS: This course is intended to be a fun vocal technique workshop
class! I will use various techniques from my many years of vocal training to improve
range, pitch, tone and breath control. I will create a fun, safe and comfortable
environment to allow students to build confidence as they work through songs that will
best suit their voices. We will workshop several songs by popular Christian artists, and
students will learn how to listen to each other, and blend and build harmonies, as they
grow their vocal gifts for the Lord. Students will have individual instruction on solos that
we choose together and receive constructive and helpful feedback. Depending on the
ability of the group, we may also learn some acapella and gospel selections as well.
While this isn’t necessarily a performance class, my hope is that students can perform a
few times over the year depending on their ability.
HOMEWORK: Song memorization throughout the year, and vocal practice at home.
Students will write an essay paper at the end of the year. This paper will describe the
impact that one or more of their favorite songs they learned in class had on them
musically and spiritually and how they grew as a vocalist.
