Licensed Professional Teacher

Singing

With each note I release from my mouth, I raise my head and become more animated. My tongue bounces off the calming phrases, releasing the strain inside. Not every sound is flawless or accurate, but every little bit helps me get through the day. Singing is the best thing for me when I'm anxious. I have a profound love for singing that comes from my heart, mind, and soul. I sing from the bottom of my heart and give it everything I have. Since I was a small child, singing has always been my big interest. Even though I'm shy and still get uneasy and trembling in front of people, singing is my escape from stress.
