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.

This is what my students wanted to know
before signing up with me
Do I have to be in Melbourne for the lessons?
No. All sessions are conducted online, so you can take them from anywhere in Victoria—or even while travelling. Many Melbourne-based clients appreciate the flexibility and time saved.
Will I end up sounding American?
I teach General American English, a neutral and widely understood accent that works well in international business settings. It’s not about imitating slang or culture—it’s about making your speech as clear and professional as possible.
How soon will I see results?
Many clients notice small improvements within a few weeks, such as fewer requests to repeat themselves. Substantial, lasting changes usually happen within 8–12 weeks of consistent coaching and practice.
Are online lessons as effective as in-person sessions?
Yes. With today’s video conferencing tools, you get the same personalised feedback, plus the benefit of recorded sessions and practice materials you can revisit.
Will the changes last?
Once you’ve built new speech habits, they can stick. Like any skill, using it regularly will make it even more natural over time. Lack of practice can cause you to revert to your previous habits, so putting even 10 minutes per day can be beneficial in making your new habits stay permanent.
