Shelley Posted October 21, 2015 at 09:57 AM Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 at 09:57 AM Yes I think you will find helpful and enjoyable. Don't forget to make use of all the materials available with the course and get the free little app that goes with the course to practice tones. Estella is a real stickler for tones and rightly so. Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
