Why Choose ClearSpeak Time-Online?

If unclear speech is hindering your studies or career advancement, this course is for you. We cater to committed learners who have explored other methods without achieving lasting results. We offer no quick fixes – real accent change takes dedication and the right approach.

Understanding Accent Change:

Pronunciation and accent modification is a skill, not a quick fix. It requires more than just watching videos. Mastering fluent pronunciation involves thinking and speaking fluently simultaneously.

The Professional ClearSpeak Method:

Time-Online courses are built on the ClearSpeak Method, developed over 25 years and utilized in universities worldwide. Our professional speech therapy techniques set us apart, maximizing your chances of achieving a superior accent.

Learn Through Engaging Techniques:

I'll guide you through hours of masterclass videos and "listen-and-repeat" exercises, incorporating intuitive visualizations and instructions on mouth positioning. Simply being told what to do isn't enough – you need to feel the difference.

The Three Essential Aspects of Accent Modification:

A complete accent change involves three key elements:

1. Sound Production: Learning to produce each new sound individually.
2. Mouth Posture: Adjusting your overall mouth posture to accommodate the new sounds. This is crucial for a natural, fluent accent – often overlooked by other courses.
3. Rhythmic Melody: Tuning into the overall rhythm and melody of English speech, beyond individual words and sentences.
