Solfege is a singing technique that has been used for centuries to teach singers how to sight read and build a strong sense of relative pitch. There are two main solfege methods in use today, fixed do and movable do. Rather than take my word for it, google it and after studying up, make your own conclusions of what works better for you. I was raised with movable do, so that is what I use primarily, but I'm always open to change! Besides knowing your syllables (do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, & ti) I like to use the hand signs to help my students develop a visual spacial representation of where each note lies. The more senses you involve in learning something, the faster our brains will respond after all!
