AI Assisted Voice Training and Business Development - Friend or Foe?

Tuesday 3rd February 2026, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)

This two-hour Short Course introduces voice educators to the rapidly expanding role of Artificial Intelligence in teaching and professional practice. Designed specifically for the needs of voice teachers, this session provides a clear, practical overview of how AI can support lesson planning, research, communication, and business development while keeping human artistry and pedagogy at the forefront.

Participants will learn how to craft effective prompts, explore tools for generating teaching materials and studio content, and see demonstrations of how AI can assist with organization, marketing, and website feedback. The class also examines the creation of custom GPTs and simple no-code “vibe-coded” applications that can enhance student engagement and teacher efficiency.

Ethical use and critical thinking are central themes, with guidance on protecting data, respecting copyright, and maintaining transparency. The session concludes with a forward-looking discussion on preparing for the AI-assisted future of music education.

By the end of this Short Course, attendees will understand how to integrate AI responsibly into their teaching and business workflows, saving time, improving communication, and expanding creative possibilities in the modern voice studio.
