Maera Daniel Hagage is one of my students and I had the privilege of interviewing her in person at my studio! In the first episode of this two-part series, Maera shares her story of moving to the US, working on her accent, and the freedom and confidence she has developed over the past few years which has opened so many opportunities for her.

Join us next week for part two where I’ll do a pronunciation coaching session with Maera!
