Is your English easily understood? Do people sometimes misunderstand you? Would speaking more clearly improve your confidence, job prospects and social life? If your answer is yes, then pronunciation coaching can help you.

With my help, your spoken English will sound more authentic and therefore more intelligible to others.

This can be achieved by:

Ensuring that you know how to produce the vowels and consonants of the English language correctly

Knowing when and where to stress or reduce syllables to reproduce the unique rhythm of English

Creating the characteristic melody of spoken English to communicate the message you intend to.

Experience: After more than two decades in corporate communications, I turned my attentions to another key area of communication and retrained as a teacher of English as a Foreign Language. I have since lectured in English as a Foreign Language in Further Education for nearly five years.

Having identified a growing need for expert pronunciation support for professionals competing in a global jobs market in which English predominates as Lingua Franca, I launched an English pronunciation coaching service to provide specialist help in this area.

As the international language of business, English is essential. But all too often, non-native English speakers are held back by poor pronunciation which restricts their promotional opportunities, impairs their performance at interview and prevents them from fulfilling their potential.
