Description

Do you wish you spoke English clearly so that people understand you better and not ask you to keep repeating yourself?

Maybe you have an accent that others find difficult to understand?

Or you just want to sound more English when you speak and have better communication skills?

If you haven't learned English as a native, this voice training course has been designed for you and it could well be life changing for you!

Do you use English in your work, but you are not a native speaker?

Are you sick and tired of being asked to constantly repeat yourself, especially on the phone, maybe from a call centre, or are you constantly being judged by English native speakers around you, because of your lack of a clear English voice?

Are you made fun of because of your so-called “foreign” accent, made to look stupid, and even seen as an “outsider”?


Well, we can help you!

Whatever country you are from, we will teach you, with many easy and fun exercises, how to reduce any distracting accent you may have and to learn the often unique vocal “sounds” that native British and American people have in our speech.

Once your English is improved, and you apply the voice clarity techniques we’ll teach you, you’ll make friends easier, work will be more enjoyable and efficient, you could be offered more promotion opportunities. You’ll simply enjoy your life more!


We’ll give you plenty of exercises that will “workout” your mouth muscles, tongue and vocal production system especially for English vocal sounds. Also, we’ll have tips specifically for presenters and tour guides to groups, large and small.

We’ll also include training on body language and gestures to help, as well as many examples of phrases and idioms that are unique to the UK and the USA that will be very useful to you. These unique idioms and expressions will enhance your speech and help you make new friends – often putting smiles on the faces of your listeners!


The course includes a section on the best ways to introduce yourself to new people and we’ll even give you a quiz to test your knowledge of English grammar.


Your trainers, Peter Baker and Katy Brody, are experienced English voice artists and vocal trainers, and you can trust us to take you, step-by-step over the 30 days, so you’ll enjoy positive results at the end, when your English speech will be clearer, and easier to understand.


Whether you need to work with native English people, take tour parties round, work in call centres or deal with business colleagues in countries that are native English speakers, this course will be just right for you and offers quick, effective results. You’ll even learn some social customs and etiquette rules of the United Kingdom and the USA to help you fit in better!

There’s one video to watch each day over the 30 days, often with interesting and fun tasks and exercises to do. You’ll also receive useful downloadable resources to refer to.


No matter where you live in the world, it’s important to be proud of your own native culture and customs and language, but by improving the way you speak ENGLISH, this will help you enormously in understanding what native English speakers say and also in how to communicate clearly and without misunderstanding.
