Accent Modification/ Speech Training
Therapy Goals
- Learn skills to improve voice quality, projection, pronunciation, and style.
- Increase speaking confidence and reduce reliance on written communication.
- Develop fluency in speaking English and making presentations to enhance job performance.
- Reduce repetitions due to others not understanding what you said; decrease faulty word formation through stress, intonation, or rhythm, inappropriate projection of voice, and distorted sounds while speaking.
- Maintain the uniqueness of a regional accent while improving the ability to be understood.
Note: Some accented speakers have an adequate command of the English language but have a foreign accent that hinders their social and/or business communications. Instruction is also available on the mastery of non-regional American speech for speakers with various dialects.
