Institue for Vocal AdvancementReviews of vocaladvancement.com

IVA has completely changed my life as a singer and singing teacher. Taking the leap and applying to the accredited program is one of the best things I’ve done for myself and education.

My voice has been incredibly improving throught these five months of training with a certified IVA teacher. Couldn't be happier and more grateful.

IVA has made me the teacher I am today. In my experience, IVA is the most comprehensive contemporary voice teacher training program out there. The master teachers and the board of directors are fantastic and truly care about your success as a teacher. The education is incredibly solid, and they are always refining it, so they are on the cutting edge of vocal pedagogy. On top of their first-rate education, my favorite part is the amazing community of voice teachers from all over the world supporting and learning from each other. Very grateful I found IVA, and I highly recommend it.

IVA is such a great organization. Amazing teachers, very valuable knowledge and a great community😊

IVA’s platform is super supportive and all inclusive. I am really proud to be a part of it’s program.

I joined IVA as a brand new teacher without any experience, and during the last decade as a teacher with IVA, I have not only grown as a teacher but as a person, too. My social and colleague circles have widened right across the world and I love the supportive nature of the community. If you want top class vocal education AND a network of teachers, colleagues and friends you can rely on, IVA is for you!

As a Level III Instructor in IVA, joining the program has changed my life ever since. Not only that I receive the education of the world's best, but also a community of great teachers from all over the world. Being in such a group of professionals makes you feel supported in your career wherever you are in the world, and the benefits continue to grow.

IVA is a fantastic resource for vocal teachers and performance coaches. The master teachers and mentors are excellent coaches and there are significant online educational materials that lay out the pedagogy structure. Personally I like their goal to be agnostic and cause and effect in their approach to vocal technique, that I can bring any other tools I wish to my teaching practice without fearing that I'm not 'in line' with the teaching organization. As long as I use the touchstone tools that are helpful, and adhere to the principles of doing no harm, and cause and effect in the voice, I'm in good standing and have a wealth of tools available to me. The comradery and networking between teachers may even be my favorite part of being a teacher in this organization.
