Everyday Accent Training

Are you a non-native English speaker who would like to improve your speaking skills for professional and everyday conversation? Everyday Accent Training is the ideal course to take in order to learn skills that can be applied to your daily speech, starting from your first session.

Most English learners do not have the opportunity to learn pronunciation and accent through their first English classes and develop speaking habits that can be challenging to change over time. My approach centers on self listening and understanding what adjustments you can make to sound the way you would like. This method will help develop your awareness around fluency, pronunciation, and intonation, as well as help to build your overall speaking confidence.

Everyday Accent

What accents do you teach?

The Everyday Accent focused on teaching the fundamentals of the Standard American accent in its current state as we know it today. This is the accent that you most likely hear in movies and TV series.

How can I learn the accent quickly?

We will begin by discussing the basics and exploring which sounds you have the most difficulty with, and then expand to accent components such as stress, fluency, intonation, and emotional expression.

Do you work with students of any language background?

Yes! Anyone from any country and any language background can take these lessons. My experience in working with international students has helped me to understand some common difficulties specific language speakers will face when working in an American accent.

How long will it take me to change my accent?

This answer will greatly depend on how effectively you practice. But, for pronunciation adjustments to specific sounds, most students will begin to notice progress with their accent within 3-4 weeks.

    Ben from Hungary

  • "Lydia is incredible! I've been through 4 different teachers in my journey to improve fluency and pronunciation, but none were as helpful as Lydia. Each lesson with her was mind-blowing, she helped me identify sounds and phonetics I mispronounced and, most importantly, how to correct them. I truly feel my pronunciation has improved 10x. Additionally, Lydia is very approachable, well-prepared, and you'll definitely enjoy your lessons with her. Thank you for everything!"

    David from Mexico

  • "Lydia is a knowledgeable teacher who is willing to help you accomplish your goals. I started the lessons with Lydia to complete my undergraduate thesis presentation. With Lydia's help, I was able to score a good grade. Also, I have learned great tips from her on pronunciation and language skills. I recommend Lydia to anyone who is looking for a talented teacher."
