I am British (Accent: Cambridgeshire). I am currently based in Maastricht, but am available to travel to Eindhoven and Aachen where I also currently work.
English has become a global lingua franca, with more speakers every day - it is essential to be versed not only in the language but also in the nuances of international communication. In this course, I focus on creating a study plan tailored to your individual needs, taking into account where, when and why you use English for the most practical application of English for business.

English Pronunciation and British Accent training.
Do you feel that people have problems understanding you? Or perhaps you feel less confident at work due to your accent. As it is not phonetic, English is a tricky language to pronounce! I am a Native British CELTA qualified English teacher with over 8 years of experience. In the last 5 years, I have helped dozens of students to improve their pronunciation and even develop a British accent. During these classes, I can help you to do the same! This takes place through studying sounds, phonics, mouth placement, listening and lots and lots of practice. All classes are tailored to your own pronunciation and accent needs. Learning pronunciation is really fun and can even help you to sound better in your native tongue! I have had great success with students in helping them to speak much clearer and more authentically. After a good amount of training, some students are even able to pass as native speakers! Although I am a British English speaker, I do have knowledge of American English accents and can help you to develop a more 'international sound' which may be more suitable for your needs. I currently have hours available for classes online due to COVID-19 restrictions. Working online via Zoom is great! We can use lots more media tools, focus directly on mouth formation and I have had lots of success with it.
