The native English speaker anticipates clear pronunciation and the predictable melody of English. That's why Learning A New Accent Coaching Program focuses on learning the English speech sounds that are different from your native language. You will also learn the rate, rhythm and melody of English.

This proven coaching format has been developed by Donna Arnett, M.S.C., CCC through years of working with business professionals speaking a variety of native languages. She has continued to revise her Accent Training Program as she has learned what helps her clients learn the fastest and easiest.

You will achieve...

  • Clearer speech
  • Increased confidence speaking the English language
  • Improved listening skills
  • Better working relationships with customers, colleagues, supervisors and staff
