Teacher Kitchy gives final pointers before the Gala night

July 25, 2008 3:21 PM

The mentors were up and about this morning coaching the scholars on. Hansen was tutored on his Tagalog pronunciation while Bunny was instructed on proper breathing. Probees Christian and Iñaki were given the most attention to be able to improve their singing.

Since Iñaki couldn’t seem to vocalize properly, Teacher Monet demonstrated for him. As he sang the scale, the scholar responded with a quite off-key version. Teacher Kitchy assisted him with his breath flow and soon enough he was able to vocalize smoothly.

After each had their turn with the mentors, the Overall Voice Mentor gathered them and gave out pointers. She started with igniting the fire in them and reminded them of their purpose in the Academy. Though thousands tried their luck, only 16 of them were given the privilege of a formal training. Even popular artists wanted to undergo systematic education to improve their craft but were not given the opportunity.

Aside from this, Teacher Kitchy stressed the need for a positive working attitude. Soon they would all be on the same plane, but their work ethics would differentiate them from the rest. It was crucial to be professional in the field and deliver when they were asked to.

Lastly, she reminded them to think long-term and never think of being eliminated. With this said, the scholars had to make the most out of the opportunity and perform as though it were their last. Will this pep talk suffice in driving the scholars to a fabulous trio performance tomorrow? Catch this story plus see the Acadreamian girls’ witty spiel later on Uberture!
