Sing along with a piano and try to match your pitch to the instrument. The lowest and highest pitch points that you can hit without your voice cracking or breaking marks your range. Make sure that you are singing with your chest, not your nose or throat, or you'll identify the wrong range.

Before you practice each song, ask yourself what emotions you'd like to convey to the listener. Then, try to interweave those emotions within each song. Work on thinking of a particular event or moment in your life that evokes emotions similar to the ones that you want to express.

Launch a sound recording app on your computer or smartphone. Then, adjust the audio input settings so that it records a pure, unaltered version of your voice. Practice singing to various songs and recording the outcome.
