Hey Gemma,
Love Eliza’s tips- would definitely agree with all the above! I would also get her to speak the lyrics (without singing) in her own accent (whatever that may be) and then sing straight away keeping the accent exactly the same as when she spoke the lines aloud. Even doing just a few lines at a time- she will start to recognise how she naturally pronounces words. Taking on an accent can be due to listening to so much i.e. American singing – but also being insecure in using own voice- feeling it’s not good enough for example so I would be ultra encouraging when she does achieve a natural accent and make her feel comfortable with her own accent! Hope this helps x

Hey lovely:) I had someone similar – firstly get the vocal chords to connect on each note with a clean/sharp onset – so kind of stacatta scales. Breathy style can be nice but the breathe on the chords can be affecting hugely the precision. Also recapping the intervals of an 8 note major scale and addressing where semi tones are etc. then I know it’s tedious testing him on the intervals of maybe the first line of a song.. Hope that helps:)
