English Pronunciation Lessons

Kursbeschreibung

This is a personalised 1:1 pronunciation course designed to improve how you are understood in English. It combines practical English teaching with evidence-based techniques from speech and language work, giving you a structured and targeted approach to pronunciation.

Course structure
You will start with a full assessment to identify your key pronunciation features. After this, you will receive a brief report and recommended learning plan, including the number of lessons needed. Lessons then focus on your specific areas, with clear, practical work to help you improve your pronunciation and communication.

Assessment and Learning Plan

You will begin with an initial assessment, either online or in person. This helps identify the specific sounds and patterns that affect your clarity.

Based on this, you will receive a personalised report with clear goals and a recommended number of sessions with expected outcomes.

1:1 Sessions

Each 60-minute session focuses on your individual needs.

You will work on:

  • how sounds are physically produced (voice, place, and manner)
  • practising sounds in isolation, words, and short phrases
  • hearing and distinguishing similar sounds
  • building accuracy through targeted practice

You will also receive simple exercises and tips to help you continue improving between lessons.

Sessions are flexible and can be taken online or in person.

Course Length

The number of sessions depends on your goals and starting point. We usually recommend beginning with a minimum of 3 sessions (3 hours total).

This allows time to:

  • understand how key sounds are produced
  • practise and stabilise difficult sounds
  • apply pronunciation in words and short sentences

You can then continue with further sessions to build consistency and confidence.

A specialist solution from Nicole Walsh

This new 1:1 pronunciation programme is delivered by Nicole Walsh, a qualified Speech and Language Therapist and experienced English teacher.

This combination is rare, and it brings a wider range of tools to pronunciation work. Nicole is able to approach pronunciation not only as a language system, but also as a physical process. This allows her to identify specific issues more precisely and provide targeted, practical solutions.

Drawing on both fields, Nicole supports learners to understand how sounds are produced, how patterns affect clarity, and how to make consistent, lasting improvements.

What makes this different?

Many learners have already tried to improve their pronunciation through listening practice or repetition. These methods can help, but they do not always lead to clear and reliable change.

Nicole’s approach is more specialised, structured and individual. Each student begins with an assessment to identify the sounds and patterns that most affect their clarity. From there, a personalised plan is created for the following sessions.

In sessions, students work on:

  • how sounds are physically produced
  • hearing and distinguishing similar sounds
  • practising sounds in words and short phrases
  • building accuracy through focused, guided practice

There is also a clear focus on communication, helping students use their pronunciation more effectively in real situations. The aim is not to change your accent. The focus is on clarity and intelligibility, so you can be understood more easily and speak with greater confidence.

Lessons are delivered one-to-one, either online or in person. This allows Nicole to adapt each session to the learner’s needs, with regular feedback and clear direction for improvement.

A more effective way forward

For many learners, pronunciation is the final barrier to confident communication. With the right approach, it is possible to make meaningful progress.

This course offers a more specialised and targeted solution, led by a teacher with expertise across both language teaching and speech and language work.
