i play some guitar, and write songs also, but i want to be able sing my own songs but my singing voice isnt that good, if i take vocal lesson can i improve my voice so that i sound good and people will be able to bare my singing?
Yes. Vocal lessons teach you techniques that can improve your vocal quality. Talent = hard work + good technique + "heart". The "heart" part is the most difficult to teach – you have to really believe what you’re singing.
No one is born a great singer. Singing seems to come "naturally" to some people, but really those people have had experiences in their lives that have formed their talent. Singing is as much a craft as it is an art. There is a certain set of skills that you need to become a great singer, and these skills CAN be taught.
If you’re really serious about singing, join a good choir of some kind – school, church, community, whatever. You’ll have the chance to practice and hone your skills regularly, and you’ll learn exercises that target certain skills. But voice lessons will help, too. The Barbershop Harmony Society (barbershop.org) is where I got my start @ 13 yrs.
Don’t let anyone tell you that good singing can’t be learned.
Good luck,
