Courses

All aspects of clients’ voice and speech needs can be covered in the sessions. Clients often have a range of needs and each client’s coaching will be individually tailored to their requirements. You do not need to book separate sessions for each of the areas covered, and clients often need work on voice, speech, accent and speech impediments during the course of their sessions. Often clients are not entirely certain of their needs before they start. For example, someone may come for help with public speaking and it then becomes apparent that they need to work on breathing and voice production as well. This is especially the case when people have general communication difficulties.

Clients frequently come for support for a speech problem and end up moving on to work on acting skills or take the LAMDA examinations. Whilst children and young people are always keen to increase their skills and qualifications, many of the adults become interested in taking the examinations as well. What starts out as a problem area in their lives can become a source of great pleasure and many of our clients go on to win public speaking competitions, join a dramatic society, or go all the way up to Grade 8 in examinations.

Much of the work can be undertaken with clients who live in other countries or other pars of the UK. Accent reduction, elocution and LAMDA examinations are all particularly suitable for this type of training and can can take place outside of our normal evening teaching hours.
