METHODOLOGY
For the development of those six areas, we have created the following plan:
One hour of weekly, supervised work, with a maximum of three students per class. The class is divided into 3 fundamental, parts, for a total of 60 minutes, as following:
1. Group warm-up, vocalization, and ear-training exercises (15 min.).
2. Individual repertoire coaching. Each student has freedom of repertoire selection (15 min.).
3. Ear and cognitive development while listening to fellow students' repertoire coaching. This is called "indirect learning". It allows the student to absorbe information in a different way than in an individual session, because when we rule out factors like stage fright and concentration, among others, we elevate the percentage of perception of certain essential elements for learning to sing. It also allows the student to understand the way the teacher uses the Mayré Martínez Method, and will then apply it to self-learning, independent home working, or even to teach at our academy once he/she ha completed the course!
15 minutes a day of independent work, in which the student rehearses the piece he/she is working on.
15 minutes a day, 5 times a week, of muscular toning using the Mayré Martínez Daily Vocal Training Plan.
TOOLS
Audio Feedback: Every class, the student’s performance will be recorded to more accurately perceive the qualities the teacher would like to develop, and those that are already developed. It also allows the possibility of comparing recordings made throughout the course and witnessing the fast results!
With this tool, the student will learn to self-evaluate, an essential skill for independent work at home.
Recording Session for Finished Songs: It gives the student the chance to listen to a professional-sounding recording in his/her own voice, allowing them to review and reinforce correct vocal work at home, and giving them the satisfaction of having fulfilled another planned goal.
Video Feedback: Video feedback will help the student observe himself when he is singing, and easily build a powerful stage presence.
Private and Public Concerts, Auditions, Contests, and the Grand Annual Festival with the most outstanding students: This gives constant motivation to continue achieving their goals, to overcome stagefright, develop body expression, experience the montage of a piece for a professional, live show in a concert hall in front of a real audience, and the satisfaction of sharing the result of your hard work and dedication with your loved ones.

TEACHING APPROACH

This way, each student begins adding up newly developed qualities (fulfilled goals), until the main objective is reached.
