I thought we’d give you the list in a different and more powerful way.  Check it out!

5. Open your mouth when you’re singing.  Ken Taylor, a vocal coach from Orlando, points out that singers who keep their mouths mostly closed are likely tense in the tongue and are far from achieving maximum quality of tone. He likes the two finger rule. If you can fit two fingers between your teeth while singing (esp on open vowels like “ah” and “oh”), then you’re good. If not, open your mouth more.  For 7 more tips from Ken click here.

6. Stop using glottal attacks!  Cari Cole, celebrity vocal coach shares that glottals’ happen when the edges of the vocal cords bang together in over-closure. This results from poor vocal technique. The way to avoid it is to add a soft “h” to the onset of words that begin with vowels, i.e.; “hh-everyone”, “hh-“I”; “hh-always”.

7. Water Water Water.  Vocal coach Yvonne DeBandi stresses that we need to drink lots of room temperature water all day and not just when we feel dehydrated.  Because if we drink it when we feel dehydrated when we are singing the water will first go to the large muscles and not to the vocal folds.  For more help from Yvonne and at least 20 more tips click here.
