Hi, I’m Adrian and I am here to help you sound more native!
I have a linguistics degree and my specialty is accent reduction. I've been a speaker at international language conferences and create video courses on American English pronunciation and accent. I’ve helped people from all sorts of professions improve their accent and I can help you too!
How's my accent? Watch my video for French, 1:09; Spanish, 1:15; Korean, 1:24; Russian, 1:32; and Polish, 1:39. Also: British RP, 2:15; London MLE, 2:28; and NYC, 2:44!Che tipo di insegnante sono
Professional and passionate educator
• I study languages as a hobby and a profession
• I research and analyze sound inventories to compare language's sound structures
• I use simple words to describe complex concepts, e.g. how to articulate particular sounds
• I'm also working on improving my accent in the languages I'm learning
Research & development
• I continually improve my teaching methods
• I research, test, and create materials for my students
• I've created customized lessons and syllabi for speakers of major languages such as Slavic, Romance, and Chinese languages, as well as for German, Japanese, and Korean
• I innovate new methods to help students improve
I want you to succeed!Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
Class structure
• Accent classes are conducted with a shared document where I paste lesson materials
• In conversation classes, I type new vocabulary and grammatical structures into the chatbox
Lesson policy
• I will wait up to 15 minutes for you if you are late. Otherwise the class is forfeit
• No cancellations/rescheduling within 24 hrs of class time
• Cancellations/rescheduling between 24-48 hour hours of class time are discouraged. Pls rebook ASAP so others can take your spot!
Ready to learn?
Improving your accent takes time, but it's doable, and I'll be there to help you on your journey!

La scelta dell'insegnante
I started taking accent reduction training with Adrian just over a year ago. In that short time, I can say with 100 percent confidence that he is a superb teacher and an expert in linguistics.
His style of teaching encourages creativity and creates a space where it is safe to make mistakes and learn.
Adrian has a growth mindset and constantly creates new content so that his students can learn more effectively.

Adrian es un excelente maestro y su conocimiento en acento es muy vasto. Él tiene mucha paciencia y siempre trata a sus alumnos con mucho respeto, mesmo en las horas que nosotros hablamos en Inglés como un chico de dos años. :-)
Su conocimiento en idiomas románticos es una grande ventaja porque puedes explicarnos el motivo de nuestra pronunciación ser diferente en inglés

Adrian is the best accent coach, I've ever had. Every lesson I learn something new, not only common things but also some little things that I haven't noticed before. And these little things help me to sound more like a native. And I really appreciate that Adrian always corrects my mistakes, not every teacher on Italki really pays attention to it. Thank you very much, Adrian :)
