accent reduction
We love your accent – we really do! The only thing we love more is helping you feel confident in speaking English to your coworkers, friends, and family.
Improve your English PRONUNCIATION
From Chinatown to Greektown and all the ‘Little’ countries in between, Toronto is a multicultural city. We are lucky to have access to different cultures, cuisines, and languages. For a lot of Torontonians, English is a second (or even third) language, which may be accompanied by an accent.
Your accent is a lovely part of who you are, and your reasons for sounding ‘more Canadian’ are personal and unique to you. You may be motivated by career opportunities or improving your confidence. Whatever your reasons, we are here to listen and help you feel more comfortable with English.
We have helped clients with a wide variety of accents achieve clear and concise speech. Some of these accents include, but are not limited to:
Spanish Accents
Portuguese Accents
French Accents
Japanese Accents
Korean Accents
Chinese Accents
Cantonese Accents
Mandarin Accents
Filipino Accents
Russian Accents
Italian Accents
Polish Accents
German Accents
European Accents
Ukranian Accents
Arabic Accents
African Accents
Indian Accents

We focus on improving your communication, helping you express yourself clearly so that your ideas are heard, your humour translates, and those English phrases are “crystal clear”!
We understand that every individual is different, and that not all speakers of a particular language will present the same way.
Your path to clearer speech production begins with your education of the subtleties of English – all of the little things you don’t learn in ESL classes or in real life.
We have developed our own assessment and treatment tools to pinpoint your strengths and areas to build on.
Having an accent can be a wonderful thing; it is a part of who you are and is an indication of where you came from. Deciding to modify your accent is a personal choice.
If you feel that you are not understood at times or that your accent is holding you back from reaching your true potential, we can help.
