Have you experienced
pronunciation frustrations?
No one should be excluded because of their accent. I believe you should be judged based on what you say, not how you sound.
Why Accent Reduction Works for Non-Native Speakers
Think of this not as replacing your natural accent, but as adding a feature to your communication toolbox. It will reflect who you are in your native language more effectively into English language.
Accents can be modified, and many people can learn new speech patterns with proper training and practice. Actors do it all the time when preparing for a new role.
Our standard program spans 12 weekly sessions, providing a structured foundation for accent improvement.
The Science Behind Your Accent
Your accent is simply muscle memory. As you pick up your first language, your brain learns how to move your jaw, lips, and tongue to form sounds. These movements became so automated that you don’t even think about them.
English has its own unique movements, just like any other language. The problem is, your brain is defaulting to what it already knows – your first language’s muscle movements.
This is the same muscle memory that you use to walk, move, swim etc. but it’s located in your face.
The good news is – muscle memory can be retrained at any age with the right approach.
The 3 Steps That Make All the Difference
1
Schedule a FREE Consultation
We’ll analyze your speech patterns to identify which of the 44 sounds in English are affecting your communication. Most students I work with focus on 10–12 core sounds, enough to noticeably improve clarity.
2
Personalizing the Plan
Your plan will prioritize the specific sounds that may help you progress more efficiently – so that you can be confident in any situation.
3
Become a Confident Speaker!
Your goal will be to practice those target sounds hundreds (sometimes even thousands) of times per week, reinforcing the muscle memory needed for clear and confident speech.

Serving Santa Clara & Silicon Valley Professionals
This is what my students wanted to know
before signing up with me
Do I need to live in Santa Clara to join?
Not at all! This program is 100% online and open to professionals throughout the Bay Area—and even beyond. I’ve worked with clients across California and globally. If you’re in Santa Clara, you could benefit from content tailored to your local context.
How long before I notice a difference?
Many clients feel more aware of their speech within a few sessions. Visible improvement in clarity typically happens by week 10-12, depending on practice consistency. This is a muscle-training process, and we’ll guide you every step of the way.
Will I lose my identity if I reduce my accent?
Absolutely not. The goal isn’t to “sound American.” It’s to speak clearly and be understood easily. You’ll still sound like yourself—just with less friction and more flow in conversations.
What languages do you have experience with?
I’ve worked with speakers of Spanish, Mandarin, Hindi, Russian, Tagalog, Arabic, Portuguese, Korean, Vietnamese, French, and many others. Your native language will guide our focus areas and practice strategies.
How much time do I need each week?
You’ll have one 60-minute live session and should aim for 30–40 minutes of practice per day. You’ll receive daily tools to help you stay on track without feeling overwhelmed.
