>>>> * **NEW! "Jeans class is a "must do" for anyone trying to get into

>>>> takes you from voice to studio, and everywhere in between. The small class
>>>> size allows for a more intimate teaching style, and gives plenty of time for

>>>> hints, contacts, and real-world experience that Jean brings, both to the
>>>> class and your mailbox. I credit Jean with not only giving me the confidence
>>>> to get that first paying gig, but the rock solid advice to actually get paid

>>>>
>>>> NEW! "Jean Zarzour is an amazing voice over coach! She provide both a
>>>> fun and rich learning environment. After each week, I could hardly wait to
>>>> get back to another class. It was that interesting. For 8 weeks of solid
>>>> instruction,  at such a reasonable price, you can’t afford not to do

>>>> NEW! "This is the best experience I've had in a long time. Jean is the
