Obtaining an American Accent is Likely Not What You Think


You can get rid of your accent & obtain a standard american accent with our accent reduction courses.

As communicators we’re infants.


We humans have only just very recently begun communicating in a complex fashion during high anxiety speaking situations. Meeting new people, making small talk, making presentations, during conflicts with colleagues. These are all very difficult things to do when speaking one’s native language. But when you’re speaking a second or third language?  Forget it!  It’s ultra-difficult! Of course you need some help!


Most people, when they think about obtaining an American accent or getting rid of their accent, think about the pronunciation of their sounds. That’s what most accent teachers are teaching. Admittedly, when I hung out my shingle I did the same.  That’s what all my teachers were teaching me.

After a few years I had to drop that method with my clients because I realized this is what causes people to over-pronounce their sounds and use an excessive front resonance. It results in a staccato, choppy speech pattern which, in turn, results in a highly accented sound!

Not only are you not getting rid of your accent–you’re making it worse!


Watch the anchors on the national news or the actors in your favorite movies. Are their lips moving to make round /o/ sounds or /sh/ sounds? Do their tongues come out to make the dreaded /th/ sound?  No & no.  That’s because in standard American accented speech there’s very little reliance on the lips.
