How I did it: I started becoming more and more serious since I started chorus in 4th grade, but I've sang all my life. I'm one of the top few in my school (We can't say, we have different ranges.) and it takes practice. Though I was in chorus, all county chorus, got perfect scores at NYSSMA, was offered to be in area-all state (I chose band<3)... I consider myself self-taught. Almost. I play a bunch of other instruments so that helps. I also sing everyday anf my vibrato is superb~ Everything falls back to practice.

Lessons & tips: PRACTICE! If you do it a lot, you'll improve most likely. Though in some cases, practice doesn't help. Some people are born unable to sing well and it cannot be helped. But don't have me stop you. I just happen to have perfect pitch. Not my fault I was born that way. Just work hard.

Resources: Idk what to really say about resources except consult professionals (teachers) or get private lessons. I never took private lessons (for vocals) but I can still sing better than some that do. Everything depends, especially when it's involving something on/in your body that you can't control completely.
