How To Beatbox
Beatboxing is an artform that is difficult to learn without a teacher to watch and guide. While there are plenty of beatbox tutorials online, videos will not be able to guide a student and correct a student’s wrong mouth posture, mouth shape, or wrong muscle engagement. Your students do not need to wander around in the dark anymore! Our beatboxing syllabus, compiled over more than 10 years of theory and practical experiences, will help your students to shortcut the entire process.
Accelerated Learning Speed
We have been through and experimented all the difficulties of beatboxing so that your students do need need to go through it themselves. At the very start of jumping right in, we go through in deep detail, what are the common mistakes of any particular sound, and the dos and don’ts that each student needs to do.
Some sounds took me 3 months to get, and i’ve taken close notice of all the mistakes that I’ve made in the process, so that I can tell the students what are the good and bad practices of each sound. this compresses their learning time into as short as one day to obtain certain difficult sounds.
Beatbox Music
Depending on your preference, our course may either comprise of
- Full-On beatboxing
- Beatboxing to Music, or
- Beatboxing to raps that the students have created themselves
We have taught more than 14000 students beatboxing, but just to name a few examples, Queenstown Primary School enjoys the full on beatboxing course, Punggol Cove Primary School engages their students with the beatboxing to their favorite songs (like let it go in the Frozen Soundtrack or Roar by Katy Perry), and Tampines Primary kicks it up a notch with the students writing their own raps, and beatboxing to it as a team. (This is difficult but possible. Long periods and student aptitude and attitude are a requirement for this option)
Social Emotional Learning
Ministry of Education (MOE) encourages “social and emotional learning” for various ways it helps in a student’s character development. For instance, it helps the student develop their outgoing nature, their social skills, communication skills, creativity and critical thinking which all helps them develop into ‘globally responsible citizens’.
If you are a teacher looking to nurture the above skills in your students and wish to help them develop skills for group cooperation and coordination, our beatboxing classes would certainly be something you would be extremely interested in. Our faculty’s skills focus on group classes which shall help the students develop the skills and emotions necessary for teamwork.
Teamwork is an extremely important skill when it comes to real life work practices as we know. Beyond the school textbooks and the practices of rote learning; working in groups shall help your students reach new heights of creativity and social skills. Working in groups shall help your students empathize with their fellow teammates and in the future with fellow citizens.
Education’s goal after all is that of helping a student reach all creative heights they can while remaining a conscious and responsible citizen. To that extent beatboxing requires extreme group coordination, discipline and the development of the necessary skills while developing a sense of rhythm.
Howard Gardner a psychologist from Harvard University in 1980s had suggested the idea of “multiple intelligences”. The concept is rather simple. There is no monolithic “one intelligence”. There are many forms of intelligences among them he noted for example “musical intelligence”, “kinaesthic intelligence” and also “interpersonal intelligence”. These intelligences, and many others are innate to us humans, but they need to be nurtured. The everyday rote learning of textbooks for examinations don’t help one get beyond “linguistic” and “mathematical” intelligence.
For these reasons that you might know, MOE encourages various extracurricular activities. Our skills in music pedagogy matched with your student’s enthusiasm to learn develop their personality, can help unleash the dreams that MOE envision their students to achieve.
Learning beatboxing shall help unleash the musical skills in students and help them further their careers in the creative profession in future if they wish to, or at least they shall take back with them fond memories of nurturing their leadership abilities and social skills to have some fun while going through the learning process.
