I’ve trained emerging reporters and writers from Kabul to Cairo, sitting side by side to help them find their inner novelist or journalist. The art of writing is a craft improved with practice and the guidance of an effective teacher. I owe my skills to my editors and English literature teachers. I’ve taught at universities and most recently a secret online school for Afghan girls, who are banned from learning beyond the sixth grade under the Taliban.

The A to Z of narrative podcasting. I share my journey from print journalism to audio documentaries and help you build your voice, brand and audience. The team at On Spec is multilingual and I can offer the training in Farsi/Dari and English – or lead you to others who can teach in other languages.

 If you’re in audio, your voice is your most important asset. But how do you get the right pitch, tone, delivery? With a voice coach! I’ve been training local journalists around the globe who’ve worked with On Spec Podcast for years. You don’t need a professional studio – you need a good mic and blankets to get started.
