Accent-Reduction Services

If a regional dialect holds you back, or English is your second language, you might need accent reduction. 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).

He directed and voiced the Rosetta Stone language acquisition software for British English and American English. Watch Pronunciation with Paul, his video lessons on Englishcafé. This is a service of GlobalEnglish, a leading online education system for those learning English.

Listen below to a practice sentence from each of Paul's two publications. Work by yourself with the booklet and CD, or add a Skype-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.
