Perception of Students on Voice Teaching and Learning of Selected Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria

Abstract

The voice is a difficult and delicate instrument that needs to be developed by right methods and correct style. This paper therefore looks at the views of voice students and the problems associated with the teaching and learning of voice. Questions were formulated to guide the researcher through the study. The research was carried out in two Universities and one College of Education. To determine how voice is done in the schools, sixty voice students’ perception and methodology of learning were noted and analysed from the structured questionnaire they responded to. Interview and direct observations were also carried out to cross-check the responses and arrive at a conclusion on how voice is done in the schools. The investigation revealed the state of voice learning in schools, the problems experienced by students during voice learning and remedial measures to be taken.
