Introduction: Anna Babenko is a voice teacher at Horus Academy specializing in opera and pop singing for children and adults. With eight years of teaching experience, she helps students build vocal technique, confidence, and an individual artistic voice.
Experience: I have been teaching for 8 years for adults and children.
My Teaching Values:
1. Joy in the process and the infinity of growth
I believe that vocal training is a journey with no final limit to perfection. It is important to me that the learning process brings joy, remains engaging and clear, and inspires students to explore their voices further.
2. Faith in every person’s potential
I am convinced that anyone can learn to sing if they have genuine desire and discipline. My role is to help students believe in their own abilities, even when they doubt themselves.
3. Respect for individuality and emotions
I never impose my choices or views. Instead, I help each student find their own path in music. At the center of my teaching philosophy is sensitivity to both the physiological and emotional experiences of the learner.
4. Growth through awareness
Mistakes are a natural part of the learning process. I encourage students not to fear them but to understand their causes. My goal is to teach vocal thinking — to help them analyze and find solutions independently.
5. Scientific foundation and individual approach
I combine knowledge of vocal anatomy with musical hearing and awareness of each student’s emotional state. I choose exercises that feel logical, natural, and accessible for that particular person.
6. Friendly atmosphere and partnership
I don’t lecture — I share experience. My lessons are based on trust, calmness, and creative collaboration, where teacher and student move forward as one team.
7. Building inner strength
I strive to develop not only vocal skills but also personal qualities — purposefulness, persistence, discipline, self-reliance, and awareness of one’s own path.
