I help committed non-native English speakers living in North America gain pronunciation awareness so you can become clear and feel confident of YOUR voice in English! After teaching more than 5,000 online classes, my method is proven to get you results
You'll notice an improvement in your English from the VERY FIRST class. Each class focuses on steps to achieve clear pronunciation & reduce your accent. We also work on mindset barriers so you feel confident.
Are you frustrated with the way you sound? Want to fit in with native English speakers? Ready to feel more confident and less embarrassed?
"The limits of my world are the limits of my language." ------Exceed your limits, start today!Me as a Teacher
I help you learn American English pronunciation to sound clearer and feel more confident. I’ve been a professional English teacher for over 10 years, both in the class and online. I am certified by Cambridge University, majored in TESOL, and minored in primary education. My students have been from different countries so I am familiar with the pronunciation problems that YOU are experiencing.
Each class is individualized to your personal needs. The first class will determine those needs and then we go from there. I guarantee that you will improve QUICKLY by working hard and following my methods.My lessons & teaching style
Each class starts with a short conversation to break the ice. It is followed by the main material which focuses on pronunciation theory. Then we practice fluency naturally. After, we will work on error correction followed by a review. Each lesson is highly structured with innovation material! In additional to learning pronunciation, you'll aquire the American accent. My method of teaching involves mindset training so you learn how to think like a confident speakers and create healthy learning habits that will serve you forever!

One of the things I like about my lessons with Morgan is that the content is very well structured and tailored to my specific needs. This is already my seventh lesson and from the very first one, I am amazed by all the new information, tips, and exercises I get from her. The fact that Morgan knows the Spanish language, gives her the facility to explain with good examples the pronunciation mistakes I make.
It feels weird and great at the same time hearing myself speak with a better accent every day.

Learning with Ms.Morgan has been the best accent reduction experience I've had so far. Her teaching is vivid and easy-to-follow. This is achieved by taking the time to prep high-quality material and develop intuitive body languages. Her thoughtfulness is also exemplified by the various homework she left after each class(she grades them too!). Highly recommended!

Amazing teacher, was able to identify the majority of my pronuciation problems within minutes; it's really wonderful to see someone so talented and passionate about their work and I feel so lucky I found her. Never felt more motivated about language lessons before, her plans and exercises are so clear, they give you everything you need to start improving right away. Absolutely recommended.
