Accent reduction coaching is recommended for French speakers who already have a good level of English (minimum B1), but who need specific support in order to improve comprehensibility and express themselves with greater ease thanks to a better command of the phonemes of the English language.
Accent reduction coaching offers the following benefits:
- Individual courses, fully customized to target the learner's pronunciation weaknesses
- Provided by a dedicated teacher, trained in accent reduction techniques
- Teachers with proven pedagogical expertise and technical knowledge
- Based on a specific program and course material
- And always requiring consolidation work between classes.
Our highly practical approach involves an initial analysis phase to identify areas for improvement (enunciation, intonation and emphasis, speed of delivery, projection, posture, etc.), followed by a series of activities designed to work specifically on the weak points identified. In the first session, the trainer will record the learner reading a text using the 44 phonemes of the English language, which will serve as a model throughout the course. At the end of the course, the learner will take the same pronunciation test, to measure his or her progress.
