Hi, Kelsey!
It's Joshua Lester, formerly from the NABS List!
Welcome to this wonderful list.
What part do you sing?
I think it's appropriate to ask the director to pair you with someone
else who would be willing to help.
As a choir director myself, (although in Gospel music,) I can give you
some ideas as well, off list should you have any other questions,
because I was taught proper singing in high school.
Thanks, Joshua
