Accent-Reduction Services

Does your regional dialect hold you back? Perhaps English isn't your native tongue and you need ESL (English as a Second Language) training. Accent reduction is the answer. Paul is a recognized authority on the two leading pronunciation systems for English — Standard British English (Received Pronunciation or RP), and General American English (GenAm). His booklets and CDs for these are much in demand; listen below to a practice sentence from each. Work by yourself with the booklet and CD, or add a phone-coaching session with Paul. You will learn what your personal major challenges are, and he will design a course of further practice tailored to your needs.

Cost: CD and booklet $21.95, eBook (12-months access) $16.95; Priority Mail shipping (2-3 days to most US destinations), if applicable, calculated at check-out. Get booklet & CD, or eBook, at half price with an hour of phone-coaching for $135.97 (booklet & CD), $133.47 (eBook). The call is free to any USA number, and varies for calls to non-US numbers; e-mail Paul first for rates, or check rates yourself.) You may record the phone-coaching session at your end for free, using an inexpensive device referenced on the phone-coaching page, or Paul will record it at his end and send you a CD recording of it for an additional $20 plus shipping. Alternatively, you may purchase an on-line download of an mp3 recording of the session (available 30 minutes after the session), and avoid shipping costs.
