Examples of what clients have said after instruction:
​

I feel much more confident than I did before.

I never knew about intonation and how important it is. 

My English accent has been dramatically improved and now I have almost no problem with my accent and intonation at work.

Now I know where I should put my tongue to pronounce sounds correctly and how to connect words to sound natural.

After the first class, my friend noticed my self-correction. It is a very good feeling to know how to speak clearly and confidently. 

I developed a more professional speech and improved my public speaking skills significantly
