What do Certification Levels mean?

Level 1 means a teacher who has completed 18 month's pre-certification period, and can competently move students toward good vocal technique.

Thereafter,levels 2, 3, 4 & 5 each take at least 2 years of experience and traininig. At the very top level, the Instructor Management Team maintains standards and trains teachers.

 

What is SLS certification?
SLS certification is not a qualification as such: not something you get to hang on the wall and forget about. It is ongoing and challenging development and assessment of your grasp and use of the SLS technique, with certification renewable on an annual basis.
How do SLS teachers train?

The IMT members train the teachers, who must fulfil an annual quota of training activity. This includes regular ongoing vocal study, training seminars, observation and more.

Teachers are assessed on their understanding of the voice and the SLS technique, diagnostic ability, lesson logic and many other areas which determine their teaching level.

Voxbox and SLS training

Voxbox is a thriving vocal studio near Euston in London NW1. It is Voxbox policy to only provide teaching facilities to SLS teachers.

Voxbox runs an induction programme for selected teachers and trainee teachers who have already been accepted on the Pre-Cert programme. This programme involves teacher training sessions, observation, and assistant-teaching on some of the Voxbox group-course modules.

Note: SLS certification is between a teacher and the seth Riggs Group. The facilities and opportunities offered by Voxbox to our "in-house" pre-certs are designed to assist you in reaching the required standard, and to povide practical work-oriented training aimed at getting you teaching and earning a good rate as soon as possible.

Attendance on the induction programme provides no guarantee of work or employment, and is subject to initial and ongoing assessment.

Teachers at Voxbox are independent singing teachers who have been offered studio space at Voxbox to teach students obtained via the Voxbox bookings system.
