Teaching Children in Group Voice Settings: Structure, Pedagogy, and Practice!
Tuesday 28th April 2026, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
Group voice classes provide an accessible and engaging entry point for young singers while allowing teachers to cultivate foundational vocal technique, musicianship, and expressive confidence. When thoughtfully structured, these classes can support healthy vocal development, social learning, and artistic exploration in ways that are uniquely suited to childhood learning environments.
This session explores practical and pedagogical strategies for designing and teaching successful group singing classes for children. Drawing on principles of pediatric vocal pedagogy and classroom teaching practice, participants will learn how to structure classes that balance vocal development, musicianship, and creative engagement.
Particular attention will be given to a five-stage teaching framework that progresses from mind–body awareness and breath coordination through musicianship, vocal technique, and repertoire study. The session also explores strategies for pacing lessons, managing group dynamics, selecting appropriate repertoire, and fostering positive peer interaction in group learning environments.
Together, these perspectives illustrate how teachers can cultivate confident young singers while maintaining a supportive, inclusive environment that fosters healthy voices and musical growth.
This session is designed for voice teachers, music educators, and pedagogues interested in developing effective and sustainable group voice programs for children.

Understanding and Working With Low Self-Esteem in Voice Users
Dr Luke Aldridge-Waddon
Join Dr Luke Aldridge-Waddon as he introduces a cognitive-behavioural approach to understanding and working with low self-esteem. Low self-esteem is associated with a range of psychological and physical health difficulties, including issues relevant to voice disorders and vocal performance. The presentation will first define low self-esteem before discussing psychological factors relevant to its development and maintenance. Luke will review existing research which characterises low self-esteem as a commonly reported experience across voice use and voice disorder groups, with some suggestions for how this might then be approached within a voice clinic and voice coaching context.
