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
Where are you located in Long Beach?
All coaching sessions are fully remote via Zoom. Whether you’re based near CSU Long Beach, Belmont Shore, or even commuting from the South Bay or Orange County, you’ll receive the same personalized attention—no travel required.
Who are these classes designed for?
These sessions are ideal for professionals, grad students, and working adults who speak English as a second language but want to be more clearly understood. I’ve worked with international tech workers, nurses, business owners, and artists—anyone who uses English regularly and wants to sound more fluent and confident.
How fast will I see results?
Most students report increased awareness and confidence within the first few sessions. Full, lasting improvement typically happens over 12 weeks of consistent practice and coaching. Like building any physical skill, the more focused your practice, the better the results.
Do I need to speak with a “perfect American accent”?
Not at all. The goal is not perfection—it’s clarity and comfort. You’ll still sound like you, but with speech that’s easier for native speakers to understand. You’ll also develop rhythm and intonation that help you sound more fluent and confident in conversations.
Are online sessions really effective?
Yes—online coaching works extremely well. I use tools like screen sharing, live modeling, audio recordings, and real-time corrections to guide you through the process. Plus, you’ll have practice materials and recordings to use between sessions.
How do I maintain progress after coaching ends?
You’ll get a custom practice plan and continued access to all your materials. Some clients schedule check-ins every few months for continued accountability or refinement.
What's the cost of accent reduction classes?
You’ll find full package options on the Pricing Page. Every package includes weekly sessions, email support, custom materials, and tools. No hidden fees.
