Accent Modification
Training
Accent Modification might be right for you if English is an additional language and you want to improve your clarity, confidence, understandability and ease in English communication. Rather than focusing solely on traditional language learning, we integrate key targets into advanced communication situations, such as interviews and presentations. As part of our holistic approach to supporting professionals, we currently offer accent modification as an optional component of Professional Communication.

Adult Articulation:
Lisp & R-Sound
If you are an adult who is looking to remediate speech sound production, it's not too late! We understand that adults learn differently and tailor our approach so that you can quickly and confidently transfer your skills to real-life situations. We prefer to collaborate on these programs, drawing on your own vocabulary and simulating your everyday situations to make skill transfer more efficient. We focus on Lisps (typically slushy or whistle-like S, SH, Z, CH sounds) and R-Sounds.
