At the end of the day, regardless of the industry or field you're in, the same approach applies. I presume that by asking your question, you've fulfilled points #1 and #2 outlined in my article and the next natural step would be conducting research on your potential candidates. Ask yourself, are there any singing schools or academy that you can sign up? Over here, we've got some renowned singing schools that have mushroomed after a popular singing contest. Do some research on them (ask in internet forums, friends) and find one that's closely aligned to your genre, your learning objectives etc. Also check whether there's any non-profit organization (such as your church choir or any district orchestra) that you can join to learn more about singing or playing other forms of instruments. There's definitely someone in that organization who knows a lot about that field that can possibly be your potential mentor. Do remember to google on the net for great forums, blogs on music and singing. There's a famous country singer, Christine Kane who writes a great blog. One of enthusiasts in that same area could be your mentor. The options are bountiful and I'll recommend you to sit down in a corner with a piece of paper and write down all the sources that comes to your mind and slowly branch out into the details. A kind of mind mapping actually. You'll be amazed at how much you'd already know. Dammy, thanks for the compliments!

Well, I did. That’s why I can fully comprehend Helen’s gratitude towards Anne. Anne Sullivan was an excellent example of a good mentor. Not only did she take great “pains” - well she lost 2 front teeth, isn’t it? - to teach Helen social etiquette, she went the extra mile to encourage creative thinking by relating the words w-a-t-e-r with the physical touch of gushing water.
