Patricia M. Leveille
Chapter: Publick Times
Newport News, VA

Faculty Objective:

The opportunity to work with individual singers as well as quartets and chapters is exciting and rewarding. As a Vocal Performance Coach I strive to enhance the overall performance level of each singer. I evaluate each learning situation and then implement a plan to teach the performer(s), as well as their “in-chapter” educators, how to “make habit” the vocal and performance skills that will raise their levels of performance. I will continue my efforts to infuse our educators/learners with the desire and confidence to move forward in their abilities.

In support of our region’s educational goals, I plan to continue my personal growth of enriching my coaching abilities through continuing educational classes at not only International and Regional levels, but at local colleges and through my own private vocal performance coaching. My work with local theater and church choirs will enhance my teaching abilities as well as hone those skills I’m still working to perfect. I will continue to search for new educational opportunities for myself and for those I work with. I believe that as an educator / coach I must be open to learning throughout my life…I must never forget what it feels like to be a student…I plan to always be a student!
