SPECIAL COURSE: “SOUND LIKE A NATIVE!”

• Are you second or third generation Greek from abroad, or Greek language learner who wishes to improve your pronunciation?

HERE IS YOUR OPORTUNITY TO MANAGE EXACTLY THAT!
Zoe will help you understand the sound and “tuning” of every letter of the Greek language. She can also help you improve your Greek by singing popular Greek songs by Mikis Theodorakis and others.

On the on line courses in the form of individual or group webinars you will be given the opportunity to:

• Dynamically and effectively develop the potential of your voice. Authentically express your emotional nuances through a song.
• Manage stage fright/anxiety in front of an audience.

• Address issues such as vocal fatigue, hoarseness, etc.

Exploring the wonder of the human voice will "unlock" and transform your personal sound. It will strengthen and boost your confidence and creativity. You'll acquire the voice you've always wanted... your voice, at its best!
