Singing teachers: booking vocal coaching for beginners
How singing teachers can let beginners book vocal coaching online: a first assessment lesson, weekly lessons, what to prepare, group classes and video lessons.
5 min read
Beginners can be nervous about a first singing lesson, and the easiest step for them is booking it online, without a phone call. Offer a first assessment lesson on your booking page, explain in the description what happens, and let them book at any hour. You hear their voice, agree goals, and book the weekly lessons before they leave.
Services for beginners
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description shown on your public page, and each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| First lesson and voice assessment | 45 min | 1 | €30 |
| Weekly singing lesson | 45 min | 1 | €40 |
| Beginners' group class | 1 h 30 | 6 | €18 |
| Singing lesson by video | 45 min | 1 | €35 |
Durations, places and prices are examples: set your own.
What the description says
- that no experience is needed and what the first lesson covers;
- to bring a song they like, with lyrics;
- to bring water and avoid singing hard just before;
- where the studio is and how to get in.
The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email and appears in the student's calendar file. Ask for the styles they like and any goal, such as a choir audition or singing at a friend's wedding.
Weekly lessons
After the first lesson, book the weekly lessons yourself from your bookings list in the agreed slot. First and last name are enough; if you enter the student's email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file for each lesson. Slots repeat each week on the weekdays you choose until an end date, so your teaching hours stay open week after week.
Group classes
A small beginners' group with several places is a gentle way in. Each online booking takes one place, and a full class leaves your page.
Video lessons
Create a separate video service. Book doesn't create video links: send yours by email after the booking, with a tip on microphone and headphones.
Changes
Students can't move or cancel online: they contact you, and rescheduling works across services, so a studio lesson can become a video one if they're unwell. Book doesn't email clients about changes, sends no reminders and doesn't take payments. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
