I heard about the course through a Facebook group for teachers of trans singers, and I'm glad I did! Getting to hear examples of the exercises was helpful, and the class was really engaging.

Liz was very knowledgeable on multiple levels. This course helped to complete the pedagogical and informational puzzle I have been working on. I would definitely recommend it to other teachers!
