A great voice leads to success and in many cases includes accent reduction for foreign speakers.
The goal of Voice Power Studios’ Accent Reduction and American Pronunciation training program is to help the bilingual or multilingual foreign speaker, no matter what his original language, be more easily and readily understood by the American listener. Rather than speaking with a perfect American accent which takes away from your cultural identity, we help our clients to communicate more easily and effectively in Standard American English and acquire more of an American accent.
Over 25 years of training, many clients have told me that their accent and lack of American Pronunciation was holding them back. They were hesitant to talk in meetings or with US colleagues. They talked too fast and were nervous to slow their speech in front of an audience. Their colleagues continually asked them to repeat themselves and in some cases were not willing to include them in team meetings because of their speech.
A recent client, who is the president of a computer technology company, spoke English with a Japanese, Portuguese accent and at a very fast speed. He confided that most of the time the English speaking employees could not understand him and this was his motivation for working with his American Pronunciation. He went on to say that oddly enough other foreign speakers could understand his English better than Americans. I said that I feel the reason for that is that people who speak more than one language, which many Americans don’t, have more tolerance and are used to listening to English being spoken with an accent. However combining a heavy accent with talking very quickly definitely hinders effective business communication.
