Dialect Coaching
What is offered?
When working with me on dialect, you can expect a comprehensive approach designed to help you confidently express yourself in any accent you desire. You may be looking for accent reduction or acquisition – I can help you with both. Each session you’ll be learning specific tools that enhance your speaking skills. Whether you’re looking to sound fluent and native or just make mild adjustments to your current accent, we’ll work at a pace that best suits your needs.
By integrating mindfulness, body awareness, and vernacular use into our sessions, you’ll cultivate a deeper awareness of your voice, enabling you to embody the accent authentically and comfortably. This journey is not just about changing how you sound; it’s about expressing unique identity with confidence.
What can you expect?
When you work with me for dialect coaching and accent reduction, you can expect to gain a wealth of skills and insights that will elevate your speaking abilities. With over 25 years of experience collaborating with actors, immigrants, politicians, teachers, and business professionals, I bring a blend of technical expertise and practical application to our sessions. You’ll learn clear articulation skills that ensure you’re easily understood, while also acquiring the accent you wish to master. We’ll dive into the physical awareness of your vocal tract and articulators, promoting healthy vocal use that enhances your speech’s flexibility, fluidity, precision, and strength. Most importantly, you can anticipate noticeable results that will empower you to express yourself confidently and authentically. 
How much time will I invest?
When it comes to investing your time in dialect coaching, it really depends on your goals. If you just need a quick touch-up for an upcoming project, you can expect to have one to three sessions. However, if you’re looking to acquire a new accent or reduce your current one, I recommend working with me weekly or biweekly for about one to three months. For professionals aiming to improve their ability to pick up new accents, regular sessions each month can be incredibly beneficial as part of your ongoing training. The more consistent you are, the quicker you’ll see lasting results!
