Send notification to new persons added to a list column

I have a list (ListA) with a workflow that sends an email notification to persons indicated in the Approvers column. I will also like to send the same email notification to only the new additions to the Approvers column

 

List columns:

1. Approvers: specified while creating a new Item

2. PreviousApprovers: automatically populated with the information in the Approvers column in New mode

 

I currently have 2 workflows, Workflow1 starts on New and Workflow2 when an item is modified.

 

Kindly find below a breakdown of Workflow2 Desing:

- Query list: Queries ListA and stores the information in the Approvers column in collection variable colApprovers and the information in the PreviousApprovers column in another collection variable colPreviousApprovers

 

- Collection Operation: 

Target Collection: colApprovers and Remove by value colPreviousApprovers

 

- Send Notification: Notification should only be sent to the new additions (the difference between colApprovers and colPreviousApprovers) but I have not been able to get this to work.

 

Also, I'd like to PreviousApprovers column in the list updated to include the newly added Approvers.

 

I will appreciate any help I can get with this.

 

Thank you.
