Seeking advice as a chazzan in training
As I am training to become a chazzan, a prayer leader, I'm constantly beset by critiques by the community, regarding "you should've done X differently."

There's certainly many points which will vary wildly based on the physical location (ex. volume) and on the community (ex. how much singing, what types of songs). With that said, suppose that a new chazzan like me were to come to your regular minyan to daven: what would you like such a chazzan to know? What general advice would you give to such a chazzan?
