NOTE: I also have a 30 minute Articulation and Diction Club available: https://outschool.com/classes/articulation-and-diction-club-30-minutes-M7JOVjHx#usj4jRJykY Communication is an important element of life. Oral communication can be challenging for many people. Being able to articulate your thoughts, enunciate your opinions and have good diction all result in being able to get the words out of your mouth in a clear manner. It is a muscle that can be trained and worked on through exercise and practice. There is power in being able to communicate orally. There is a confidence that a person has when their words are understood. I created this class because I want children to have that confidence and power. This is a 15-minute on-going class where we will do fun tongue twister exercises every week in order to improve diction and articulation. We will practice 2-3 tongue twisters a week. We will recite them as a class as well as individually. There may be a few weeks where I throw in other vocal exercises like reciting old English text or poetry. All exercises will help with enunciation and diction. This is a great class for anyone interested in acting, broadcasting, joining a debate team, wanting to become more confident in speaking or just wanting to improve diction and articulation. No prior experience is needed. This will be a safe and respectable place where all are welcome. This is an on-going, subscription-based class. You will be charged weekly unless you unsubscribe. P.S. For even more practice you can do the following: Practice the tongue twisters we review in class at home on a daily basis OR you can enroll in more than one day/section of this class. PRACTICE IS THE KEY 😊 I can't wait to hear your wonderful voice in this class!
