Accent Reduction Training
Is your accent getting in the way of what you’re trying to say?
Does it ever cause you frustration that people seem to be listening to HOW you are saying your words, and not listening to WHAT you are saying?
Does it ever distract from your conversations when people interrupt you with: “I hear you have an accent, where are you from?”
Does it ever cause an obstacle in your communication when people misunderstand you, or ask you to repeat yourself? Or, during conversations, do people sometimes make a face as if they’re having difficulty understanding what you’re saying?
We all know that communication touches every aspects of our lives. Are you ready to take that next step in devoting the time and energy towards studying the American Accent? Are you ready to develop clearer speech to make a positive impact on your work and social relationships? Are you ready to jump over professional barriers and eliminate daily frustrations? Are you ready to be confident when speaking- both in person, and over the phone?
