ESL/ESOL

I hold a Master's degree in communication sciences and disorders and I have worked as a speech and language pathologist for the last 15 years. In that role, I have helped many people improve their speech and language skills to become effective communicators. Currently I provide online speech coaching services for English language learners. I will help you learn the sounds, rhythm, and intonation patterns of spoken American English. I have a deep knowledge of phonetics, articulation, and speech sound production. I will use these skills to determine which speech sounds and intonation patterns will mostly positively affect your communication success and develop an individual coaching plan specific to your needs. I know how frustrating it is to be asked to repeat yourself or speak more slowly! I want to help you feel confident with your spoken English so you can achieve your social, academic, and career goals.
