Frequently Asked Questions- Q: Do you offer virtual services? A: Yes! Speech Fox lessons or via live, recordable video web conference. Q: How long does the process take? A: The engagement for accent reduction starts with an assessment session of 90 minutes. For Dialect Coaching and Presentation Skills Training (also including job interview and college interview preparation), the assessment is optional. Regarding accent reduction for non-native speakers: Every client is unique but as a rule of thumb, clients tend to hear a noticeable improvement in their own speech after approximately 5 sessions, many clients report receiving compliments and positive feedback after 10-15 sessions, and by 30 sessions when we’ve covered an entire scope of speech sounds, syllable stress, intonation – they often see positive movement in their careers or life due to their newfound clarity and confidence in communication. Q: What dialects and accents do you teach? A: I can coach clients from any world language, and I have particular expertise in coaching speakers of Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, Italian, Russian, Polish, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, as well as accented English (regional variations of American or British English). Q. Do you work with individuals? Yes, I work with individuals. I coach clients who want to reduce their accent, entertainers who want to work on a dialect, and corporate types who need help with presentation preparation.
