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

This is what my students wanted to know
before signing up with me
Do I need to live in Orange County to join?
Not at all! While this page is tailored to professionals in Orange County, sessions are fully online—so you can join from anywhere in California or the U.S.
How long does it take to improve my accent?
Most students begin noticing awareness shifts within few sessions and feel more confident in real-world speech within 10-12 weeks. The full program runs for 12 weeks for lasting clarity and habit change.
Is the goal to sound like a native speaker?
The goal is clear, confident, and natural English, not perfection. You’ll still sound like you—but you’ll be easier to understand and more persuasive in your speech.
Will this help with interviews or presentations?
If you’re preparing for a presentation, pitch, interview, or performance review, we’ll integrate that into your coaching so you’re fully prepared. However, accent is not the only factor that affects being hired.
Do you have experience with my native language?
Most likely, yes. I’ve coached speakers of Spanish, Mandarin, Korean, Hindi, Vietnamese, French, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, and many others.
What kind of practice is expected between sessions?
Consistent practice is key to making progress in accent reduction. It’s recommended that you practice daily for at least 30-40 minutes to reinforce the techniques learned in your sessions.
