Testimonials

"Although I am able to communicate well in English, I wanted to improve my pronunciation, but didn't know where to start. Luckily a friend recommended Sandra. Sandra's classes were structured in a way that I was able to understand the why, when, and how in regard to application of pronunciation rules. Understanding the phonetics was a crucial step to be able to distinguish the different pronunciations, and where exactly I needed to improve. Sandra built the classes to the point, that not only pronunciation was involved, but stress and changes of the voice were all part of the way to communicate my ideas clearly. My pronunciation is a work in process, I now have the tools to work on improving my English, not to get rid of the my accent, but to make my speech clearer to anyone. I couldn't recommend Sandra's classes enough, her technique and patience are magnificent."

"A few months ago, I didn't even know that stress existed in English! Fortunately, I met Sandra. She gave me all the essential keys to understanding and being understood by native speakers. The best way to progress in language is to have someone who detects, explains and corrects your mistakes. Thanks to her availability, kindness and professionalism, Sandra gave me the keys to improving my weak points. Personalized lessons helped me to achieve my goals more quickly. From the importance of phonetics to stress and linking, I now have all the information I need to improve my pronunciation. All that's left for me to do... is practice! "

Sandra really adapts the pace, level and content to my needs and works hard on my weaknesses until something finally clicks.

"Before I started the course, I didn't know that pronunciation was so important, my previous teachers never taught it to me. I now realise that pronunciation is important and I pay attention to my pronunciation after taking this course. My IELTS teacher told me that my pronunciation has improved a lot."
