Hi, Deanna,
Is your studio full? Do you have a waiting list? If so, with your
experience, definitely consider raising your prices - the serious
students won't object (regardless of whether or not they are amateurs,
they can still be serious students), the not-so-serious will weed
themselves out, and you'll make room for new students.
Also, how many other voice teachers are out there in your area? What
do they charge? That's your best guage for how to price lessons -
every economic area is different.
If you'd like specifics on my situation you can email me privately.
