Speaking Effectively

Being a confident speaker is a skill that translates to both professional success and personal satisfaction.  You deserve to feel at ease and effective in smaller venues that are important to you or with larger audiences that desire your expertise. Effective speakers know how to connect with their listeners, and my coaching helps you master that connection, to speak in the contexts that matter to you.

Your accent is part of your story. There are many reasons that you might want to modify your accent, and when you work with me we will begin with the goals that drive your desire for making changes.  You don't need to LOSE an accent, but you CAN acquire the tools to build a new one that suits your identity and your goals.

MEET LESLIE


Leslie's primary goal is to help others realize their potential with speech that makes an impact. 
With a doctorate in linguistics, Leslie has taught and coached languages, speech, and accents for over twenty years.  Her own journey as a language learner (fluent in Spanish and Portuguese) and a former unconfident speaker equip her to give the care and encouragement every client deserves.  
In her current practice as a coach of speech, voice and accent, Leslie uses a customized approach that begins with a client's specific goals. Through a process of observation, reflection, and teaching, Leslie equips clients with the skills needed to continue the work beyond the course or coaching session.
