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.

British English: Pronunciation, Diction and Vocal Expression for Aspiring Singers

Sound more natural, expressive, and confident!

Are you a speaker of Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Polish, Czech, Slovak, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Slovenian, Serbian, Bosnian or Croatian? Then you NEED this class. Speakers of Slavic languages face very specific intonation challenges when speaking English… and they are 100% fixable with the right training.

In most Slavic languages, intonation is used very differently than in English.
This often leads to speech that sounds accidentally:

* Flat or emotionless (even when you don’t feel that way)
* Too direct or “serious” - especially in casual conversations
* Unintentionally sounding aggressive or impatient to native English listeners
* Sounding like every sentence is a statement - never curious, excited, or playful

If you’ve ever been told you “sound cold”, “too formal” or “not engaging enough”… it’s not your grammar - it’s your tone! 

In this 10-lesson course, you will learn how to correctly hear, produce and teach authentic British English pronunciation with absolute confidence. You will master intonation, rhythm, stress, connected speech and sound accuracy - not just in theory, but in real-life spoken communication.

Each lesson builds strategically, giving you immediate practical speaking upgrades, expert correction tailored to your native sound patterns, and fully guided teaching frameworks you can use with your own students or audience.

* How English intonation works differently from Slavic patterns
* The 3 essential melody patterns for sounding natural and friendly
* How to express emotion, curiosity, and interest naturally in conversation
* How to avoid sounding robotic, blunt, or overly serious
* Live feedback + practice with real-life conversation examples

You’ll finally sound more friendly, natural, expressive, and confident —
not just correct.

These lessons are separate from general accent classes as these are focused only on tone and voice.
