No, you're not a good for nothing teen. I think your teacher is right...singing is good for you...but I understand what you're saying, too. (about whatever you can't do well, you don't do. That's why I decided not to practice today...just kidding.)

Yeah, singing helps you find pitches easier, I think. However, I am in tune most of the time, so if I couldn't sing, I would have the same attitude as you: Don't do it.
Post something on here about the dance lessons and see what people have to say about that!

Your experience reminds me of my fiance's. His drum teacher made him DANCE during the lesson because he wasn't 'feeling' the beat. I'm not sure which is worse...dancing or singing. I personally happen to agree that singing is good because all music (esp violin) is meant to mimic the human voice. However, if you feel that your teacher is humiliating you to prove his point, then maybe there are better teachers around. Then again, you could also try to get the notes in the Kabalevsky. haha! Good luck!
