If you want to know a very good vocal coach try to visit https://tr.im/LhO8P an online vocal coaching tutorial. Everything, ranging from breathing fundamentals, vocalizing exercises, techniques on singing high and low notes, how to not go off-key/out of tune/off-sync, musicianship and music theory, proper diction and articulation, and a lot more are covered, all in our native language. It can be quite technical in nature, but it really helps since it covers the musical aspect of singing deeply and not just concentrates on how to impress people with your vocal range, riffs and runs and other cliches that do not necessarily make one a complete vocalist.

Vince Clarke (born Vincent John Martin, South Woodford, Essex, England, July 3, 1960) is an English pop musician and songwriter, who has been involved with a number of successful pop groups, including Depeche Mode, Yazoo, and Erasure.
Raised in Basildon, Clarke initially studied the violin and then the piano.
In the late 1970s Clarke and schoolmate Andrew Fletcher formed the short-lived band "No Romance in China." In 1979 he teamed up with Fletcher to form "French Look" which was later re-named "Composition of Sound," with the addition of Martin Gore. Vince Clarke initially handled vocals.

Depeche Mode
In 1980 singer David Gahan was drafted in to complete the line up and the band was re-named Depeche Mode. The band initially adopted a slick synthesised electropop sound, which produced the album Speak and Spell and the Clarke-penned singles "Dreaming of Me", "New Life" and "Just Can't Get Enough" in 1981. Clarke left Depeche Mode shortly thereafter; there were many rumored reasons pertaining to his departure, but the one that is most commonly said was because he didn't enjoy the direction that the band was going. Depeche Mode went on to achieve international stardom.
Clarke has commented on Depeche Mode's post-Speak and Spell material as being a little dark for his taste, but good nonetheless. When asked about it, he said, "Martin was a strong writer. He always had been. And I think when I left, it gave him chance just to sort of emerge as the songwriter. I mean, he could always write songs. It's not like he just started because I left."
[edit]
Yazoo
Clarke then teamed up with singer Alison Moyet (at the time known by the nickname of 'Alf') to form the synthpop band Yazoo (known as Yaz in the U.S.), which produced two albums and a string of hits including "Don't Go", "Situation" and "Only You".
Yazoo split in 1983, and Moyet went on to have a successful solo career. In the following few years Clarke had one-off associations with several artists, notably with Paul Quinn and the single "One Day", and Feargal Sharkey as The Assembly with the hit "Never Never".
[edit]
Erasure
In 1985 Clarke put an ad in Melody Maker for a singer, and the forty-first applicant was Andy Bell, a fan of his earlier projects. He teamed with Bell to form the group Erasure, and the duo became one of the biggest selling acts in British pop music history with international hits like "Oh L'amour", "Sometimes", "Chains of Love" and "A Little Respect".
[edit]
Additional work
Clarke teamed with synthpop producer Martyn Ware (of Heaven 17) in 1999 as "The Clarke & Ware Experiment" and released the album Pretentious. The duo collaborated again in 2001 for the album Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle, which was created with "3D music technology" specifically designed for listening in headphones. 2001 also saw the release of the Clarke-produced album Erasure's Vince Clarke which featured The Peter Pan Effect, an album that he and Eric Radcliffe produced for his long time friend, Robert Marlow.
Clarke currently lives in New York City with his wife Tracy, whom he married in May 2004. Their son, Oscar, was born shortly after. Erasure, still active twenty years after their debut, released an acoustic album Union Street in April 2006.
