| The goal of
accent modification, or accent reduction, is to change the sounds and melody of
your English so that you can express yourself more clearly and be
understood more easily. If you are a non-native speaker of English and find
that people concentrate more on how you are speaking than what you are
saying, accent modification can help. |

Accent modification is for non-native speakers of
English who have a genuine need to speak more clearly in the workplace in order
to pursue a successful career. Accent modification training with a
speech-language pathologist (SLP) offers a distinct and important enhancement
to traditional classes: an SLP has a master's degree and is uniquely
educated to analyze the sounds of speech and to train clients to modify
their speech patterns.
Accent training focuses on the sounds and
melody of American English. In an individualized course, your speech will
be evaluated thoroughly and analyzed in detail to determine goals that are
unique to you. The trainer will set up a schedule that addresses your
accent needs, and meetings will focus specifically on the consonants, vowels
and intonation patterns that will make your speech more easily
understood.
An initial 20-hour module is recommended for most clients.
