1 diction lesson

I had Nghi help me with my Diction for a french piece I am working on. She has excellent diction was very helpful. Looking forward to our next meeting.
Carrie C.

2 diction lessons

She was on time, patient, thorough, and efficient, and I would most definitely meet with her again (which I plan to!)! I was very excited to be able to do a decent pronunciation of the aria by the end of the session, and even with all of my singing diction courses, Portuguese is not the easiest language to pick up quickly. Overall, she is a great teacher/tutor, so I can't recommend her enough. Thank you again Valeria! I had another lesson again, and it was amazingly helpful again!

Dalal was very thorough in setting our goals for the lessons at first. She helped me improve my diction in English and gave me several pieces of advice on how to elevate my discourse in a professional setting. I really enjoyed working with Dalal and would highly recommend!
