๐ FROM AN ENGLISH LEARNER TO A 2ND VOICE"
Mr. Ajantha Dayarathna๐ซกfrom Anuradhapura has always been enthusiastic about learning English and exploring new challenges.
He never imagined that his English-learning journey would lead him to perform an emotional English cover song. But when he accepted the BEAT โ โLet Me Be the 2nd Voiceโ Challenge, he stepped outside his comfort zone.
This was not simply about singing a familiar song. Ajantha chose โYou Are The Reasonโ by Calum Scottโa song demanding pronunciation, emotional expression, confidence, interpretation and practice.
He accepted the challenge to learn, practise, perform and find his own voice through English.
๐ง DON'T JUST LEARN THE LANGUAGE.
FIND YOUR VOICE. BUILD YOUR CONFIDENCE. BECOME THE 2ND VOICE.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ

๐ค THE 2ND VOICE
The 2nd Voice is not about becoming another singer.
It is about discovering your own Voice, Emotion, Interpretation, Confidence and Expression while learning from an original work.
The goal is not to become Calum Scott.
The goal is to discover Ajantha's own voice through English.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ฑ FROM PRACTICE TO PERFORMANCE
Every confident speaker was once a learner.
Every performer was once a beginner.
Mr. Ajantha Dayarathna accepted the challenge, practised beyond his comfort zone and transformed English learning into a meaningful musical performance.
Small, consistent improvements create big success.
