Accent reduction, leadership development, and public speaking/presentation
Susan helped me refine my goals during the first session. She customized the class based on my profile and adapted her teaching throughout the sessions. We worked on accent reduction to improve my pronunciation as a non-native American English speaker, focusing on both unconscious and conscious speaking. We practiced various exercises such as role play, conversational speech, and word/sentence repetition. The over-articulation exercise played a key role in improving my accent, helping me feel more comfortable speaking with others, both at work and during social events with friends. We also focused on how to engage with an audience, incorporating energy, body language, and leadership skills. I was able to improve my leadership style and presentation skills using several helpful techniques, such as pausing, making smooth transitions, checking in with the audience, using names, and highlighting key points in my notes. Susan is an exceptional professional tutor who equips you with valuable tools for accent reduction, public speaking, presentations, and leadership development

Excellent Communication and Interview Coach
Susan has been an incredible speech and communication coach for my son. This is his review: I originally worked with her to improve my interviewing skills, but she helped me far beyond just practicing interview questions. She taught me practical techniques for speaking more clearly, slowing down, pausing, improving my body language, and communicating with more confidence. What I appreciated most was how personalized the sessions were. She paid close attention to the way I spoke and gave me specific, actionable feedback that I could immediately apply. We also did a lot of interview role-playing, which helped me feel much more comfortable and prepared when it came time for actual interviews. I have noticed a significant improvement in both my confidence and the way I communicate in professional settings. Susan is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their speaking, interviewing, or overall communication skills. I ended up receiving an offer for the job I was preparing for with Susan, and I truly believe the work we did together played a big role in helping me feel confident and prepared throughout the interview process.

Very rapid shifts after a few sessions
I was struggling with an overactive mind: overthinking, looping and procrastination with over preparing, and paralyzed in my ability to present confidently for my new nonprofit by the judges and saboteurs in my head. After implementing what I learned from Susan, I now much more effortlessly, get out of my head and speak more from my whole body, which has had an immediate impact on my success in attracting new board members, renters and potential donors for our nonprofit. Susan taught me to use simple somatic tricks and centering, grounding practices which I have begun using as well at the outset of staff and board meetings. I noticed myself taking my power back naturally, and finding myself speaking authentically and with confidence. I am surprised to find myself no longer hurrying through what I’m saying, due to not valuing what I have to say. My rate has slowed, I’m breathing and pausing because I believe when I value what I have to say, others do, too. I was truly surprised how quickly these shifts happened after just a few sessions with Susan, and I recommend her to anyone who feels uncomfortable speaking in public.

Great interview coach!
My son has NVLD and we were looking for an interview coach who understands his disorder. As a speech and language pathologist, Susan was able to give him the direct, clear feedback he needed to do well. She prepped him for 5 hours for an important interview and he said the prep was really helpful and he felt confidenct going in. When he asked the panel of interviewers if they had any feedback for him, one said, "You are really personable. I wish more of that had come out in your personal statement." That was a huge victory - to have interviewers find him personable on first meeting was just awesome.

Helpful and Brilliant Tutor/Speech Coach
Susan is a fantastic speech coach for me. Ever since our first lesson, I have been improving every single day on speaking in a professional setting, learning the ins and outs of how to speak and present myself during interviews or important calls. Susan has given me great tools to work with and is very helpful when practicing and pointing out places where I am doing well, and also places where I could use some improvement. Overall, I am very happy I have started working with Susan, and I have seen incredible improvement and success since.
