🗣️ Pronunciation for Public Speaking and Conversation is a course that identifies and resolves the issues that make people struggle to understand you. Common issues include:
• speaking too fast or slow
• having a confusing or flat intonation
• missing or overemphasising weak syllables
• stressing the wrong parts of words or sentences
• not linking sounds together
• talking with a rhythm that isn't natural to English
WHAT MAKES MY LESSONS STAND OUT?
Affordability, quality, and expertise. In this industry, materials are rarely professional or customised. As an independent teacher, I provide my clients with a tailor-made course just for you. If you have any special requests, I will adapt the course for your needs.
WHO SIGNS UP FOR AN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION COURSE?
The Pronunciation for Public Speaking and Conversation course is ideal for people who engage in presentations, lectures, speeches or moderating, or simply for people who want to be more confident in everyday conversation.
Pronunciation training benefits professionals from a variety of sectors. My clients include consultants, creatives, therapists, lecturers, teachers, performers, bankers, estate agents, hosts, broadcasters, corporate trainers, small business owners, international executives, and facilitators.

ABOUT ME
My name’s Tom and I’m an English teacher from Southeast England, based in the Hague, Netherlands. I teach English speakers how to communicate more clearly.
I have taught for various schools and agencies in the Netherlands and been frustrated by the lack of high-quality teaching materials and expertise among teachers of English pronunciation. So in 2021 I set up my freelance teaching business to change the situation.
I have over 10 years of teaching experience, and I have a master's degree in Linguistics from Leiden University, with a specialisation in English Linguistics, Phonetics and Speech Processing. I am trained in speech analysis software, a highly effective tool that I use to help learners not only hear but also visualise their mistakes.
In my spare time, I study and learn languages. I can speak Mandarin, Finnish and a smattering of many others. Currently I am learning Japanese and Dutch.
I have the technical, academic, and practical skills to help you improve your accent.
