About this episode

Maera Daniel Hagage is one of my students who recently came to my studio for a 1:1 coaching session. In this episode, see how I work with Maera on advanced pronunciation feedback, where we focus on her vowels, voice quality, and rhythm.

Maera was a previous private student of mine, and she joined my course New Sound, where she practiced the foundations of pronunciation and accent.

In this coaching session, you’ll get the chance to see how I work with my students and give them feedback that allows them to express themselves through their voice even more in English!

My course New Sound is designed to transform your pronunciation and mindset, and help you feel free when you speak English. Get on the waitlist to be the first to know when we open doors again: https://hadarshemesh.com/join/
