Although I have lived and worked in the UK for over a decade, my distinctive Eastern European accent has persisted. It has created a type of invisible barrier in social and professional situations, often making me feel self-conscious. I frequently felt as if I didn’t belong in the country I had chosen to live in and consider my home. Carolyn has been an excellent teacher and coach. She has designed a customised programme for me, targeting the aspects of my pronunciation and specific phonetic combinations that I have particularly struggled with. We have worked on isolated sounds, connected speech, stress, and intonation. I wholeheartedly recommend Carolyn to anyone seeking to improve their accent and build confidence in their spoken English".
