Accent Training

American English Pronunciation Coaching

​

We specialize in helping non-native English speakers and those with regional dialects improve their clarity and confidence. Also called accent modification, our accent training services are offered to clients nationwide via online video conference.

Your accent is an important part of your identity, culture, and community. While no accent is “better” than another, unfortunately not all of them are perceived or treated the same. Effective communication skills are crucial for a successful career in all professional fields. If you have difficulty clearly communicating your message or being easily understood because of the way you speak English, pronunciation training can help.

 

Speech-language pathologists are uniquely qualified to provide accent coaching services due to their advanced training in articulation, prosody, phonology, voice, and social aspects of communication. The goal of pronunciation coaching is to improve intelligibility and naturalness when speaking in the General American English accent.

Pronunciation coaching can help if you: 

 

  • Have difficulty being understood

  • Frequently need to repeat yourself

  • Find that more attention is given to your accent than your message

  • Experience bias and discrimination because of your accent

  • Encounter barriers in work, social, and/or educational settings
