Here's a great visual of the muscles involved in jaw movement!
When your teacher tells you to relax your jaw, it can be helpful to know WHAT you're relaxing. See if you can find the masseter and temporalis muscles on yourself, and feel them release as your jaw falls. Your voice will thank you!

Why is tongue tension such a problem for singers? Depressing it will force the larynx down and close the back of the throat; pulling it up too far (as for a tense "ee" vowel) will decrease resonating space. A relaxed, "fat and floppy" tongue is best!

Day 12: How long have you been teaching for?
I taught a couple of students in high school, but I started teaching in earnest after I finished University....so this is my 6th year of teaching! I love it :). You can check out my website to see what others are saying about my teaching here: speaksingstudio.com/testimonials
