Elocution Student

Having always wanted to take elocution lessons, I decided to bite the bullet and book and introductory lesson with Liam. It did not take long before the two of us clicked. Liam is an ethusiastic and positive person; his energy is inspiring and contagious.

Liam takes care of all the different aspects involved in communicating efficiently; that being said, he listens carefully to the student’s needs (e.g. specific sounds that one wants to improve, etc.) and, therefore, his approach is dynamic as well as begin structured. He is always on time and teaches in a quiet room.

Due to his fine ear, Liam is capable of spotting sounds that are not correct or ”quite there yet”. His attention to details and encouragement of being self-aware has an impact on a student’s everyday life. My awareness to the sounds that I make whilst speaking has improved and, hopefully, so has my voice thanks to Liam! There is always time for a little joke and the lessons are extremely easy and fun to attend. The energy ”in the classroom” is relaxed, playful and judgment free; making funny faces or noises is sometimes necessary and it does not feel weird or uncomfortable as Liam does not shy away from doing them with the student.

I strongly suggest having a think about your expectations because nothing massive can change overnight. I also recommend having fun and enjoy the whole process of learning a new skill, and I recommend doing it with Liam’s help!
