Inspirational Tutor to Help Strengthen Language Skills

Cib R.

Accent Reduction

I am qualified to teach accent reduction because my background uniquely blends strong linguistic expertise, professional communication experience, and cultural awareness. As an English major and fluent Spanish speaker, I have spent years studying the structure, rhythm, and sound patterns of language. My natural facility with languages, combined with over 15 years of real-world translating in medical, legal, and business settings, has required me to maintain precise pronunciation and clear articulation under pressure. In addition, I have more than 20 years of business experience and a degree in Human Resources, giving me a deep understanding of how effective communication impacts professional success. As a first-generation American and child of immigrants, I also understand firsthand the challenges—and the empowerment—that come with mastering pronunciation in a second language. For over a decade, I have tutored students from ages 8 to 100, helping learners at all levels build confidence, improve clarity, and sound more natural in English. My combination of linguistic skill, teaching experience, professional communication background, and personal insight allows me to guide students through accent reduction with accuracy, empathy, and proven techniques.

Interview Prep

I am qualified to help with interview preparation because I bring over 20 years of management experience, during which I have interviewed hundreds of candidates across a wide range of roles and industries. This firsthand experience has given me a deep understanding of what employers look for, how strong candidates present themselves, and which communication habits make the best impression. My degree in Human Resources further strengthens my expertise by grounding my guidance in proven hiring practices, behavioral interviewing techniques, and professional standards. I understand how to evaluate a candidate’s strengths, how to tailor answers to different types of questions, and how to highlight skills in a way that resonates with hiring managers. Combined with my extensive background in language, tutoring, and communication, I am able to coach clients not only on what to say in an interview, but how to say it—with clarity, confidence, and professionalism. My approach helps individuals present their best selves and enter interviews genuinely prepared to succeed.
