Group Classes, Private Sessions, Online Sessions

Programs are highly specialized. You can work either individually or in a group, depending on your needs and preferences.

GROUP CLASSES

For Accent: Address the sounds and issues that are most important and relevant to the participants in the group. Consonant, vowel, and stress and intonation issues are a part of every group class.

Professional Communication Skills/Executive Coaching: Various issues related to participants' needs are taught, practiced, and reinforced, all in a supportive environment.

PRIVATE SESSIONS

Private programs are tailored to suit the speech, voice, and all other communication goals and needs of an individual. You will be HIGHLY supported throughout the duration of your program, with weekly (typically) sessions and communication/feedback between. Sessions can take place at my office in Chelsea, your place of business, or my home office in Upper Manhattan.

ONLINE SESSIONS

for executive communication coaching or accent reduction classes

During the course of your program, I provide answers to questions, advice, feedback on videos or recordings, edits on emails or reports, support in habit-changing strategies, accountability check-ins and overall support in reaching your goals. Your sessions can be divided how you would like: For example, you might schedule a 30-minute session before a presentation, a 60-minute session on a lighter work day, and another 30-minute session... You will be highly supported.

**I use a sliding scale in some cases, based on the circumstances, so please contact me if you have questions. (Also applies to certain organizations and group programs)

*Accent may also address voice, grammar, vocabulary, writing, cultural communication differences.

*Executive communications training may also address some accent issues.

Executive communication coaching addresses any number of issues, including: improving leading and participating in meetings, presenting, 1:1 conversations with clients, co-workers or superiors; overall executive presence, dealing with nerves; addressing old stories, habits and habitual tensions that sabotage your communication and ability to connect; voice and vocal development; speech and dynamic speaking; writing of emails and reports, and the unique concerns and needs of the individual.

A program begins with either a consultation or a comprehensive evaluation, upon which a tailored program plan is created.

If your company is covering the cost, a copy will be sent to them, as well. No two programs are the same, as they are highly individualized and tailored.

For Accent-Related Group Classes:

LEVEL 1 (Non-Native English Speakers): Establish a strong foundation in the sounds and patterns of American English. Cultural style differences in communication may also be addressed.

LEVEL 2: Continue to expand upon your mastery of sounds, intonation patterns, vocal delivery, and confidence through conversation and presentation. Each participant will have specific goals, individual feedback and carryover "assignments."
