Singing with nasality is not looked upon as favorable in classical singing of the western tradition, with the exception of french nasal vowels. Here are some tips to help you become aware of, avoid, and get rid of nasality.
1.Practice vocalises with your nose plugged- If the sound is different in any way than when your nose isn't plugged, there is nasality.
2.Add a [b] before vowels- it's impossible to make the consonant [b] with nasality and getting a good start will ensure a good finish.
You can use these two "tricks" to help teach yourself the difference between nasal resonance and pharyngeal resonance.
Good luck!
