We’ve been poking around Youtube recently, searching for vocal exercises to use in the classroom. We came across the National Theatre’s YouTube page – National Theater Discover. Check out its playlist devoted to vocal mini-lessons with Jeanette Nelson, the National’s Head of Voice.

The techniques modeled in these videos are geared towards stage acting but could be used in the classroom setting or at home.
