There are some exercises that will let you improve the two, one is by practicing your vocal exercises and the other is by doing physical exercises, if you can, everyday.

For some, singing is simply a hobby, for others it could be a way to make ends meet. If in case you're attending vocal lessons not just to get better, but to really learn how to sing like a pro, then you might need to put forth more effort in your ways of learning how to sing. Another way to develop a great singing voice is to learn to read the music sheet.
