Do you want your English to sound lovely to your listener? 

I have a system that works! Improve the sound of your English with a native Brit! No more trying to fake a British accent. In these classes you will learn the British accent intuitively. I will teach you, using simple methods, how to pronounce words and syllables so that your delivery of English sounds natural and convincing.

This course teaches all of the important and intricate aspects of modern Received Pronunciation and places particular focus on vowel & consonant pronunciation, word & sentence stress, connected speech and intonation; with taught practical methods for training your mouth to make those British sounds!

Students receive an initial assessment followed by training personalised to their accent and have access to hundreds of downloadable audio and visual files to assist learning. Through drilling, repetition, reading and conversation we will work together to help you achieve the accent you want.
