Hi, I'm Tavonna !
Accent Reduction Coach
I have been working with the voice as a Voice Coach for over a decade.
​
Spending months backpacking through Europe during the winters has been the wildest linguistic adventure I've experienced. Thrusting yourself as a professional into a new environment where you have to achieve in a foreign language takes serious courage. It forced me to get granular about understanding more deeply the concepts of linguistic intonation, vowels and consonants. Being a "beginner" in a new language was transformative & humbling.
I get it, When it's time to learn, it's time to LEARN. I know from experience how to make that easier because I had to make it easier for myself.
​
My passion for helping people speak clearly came from being a beginner myself in a new language while needing to achieve quickly. I don't want anyone's speech to get in the way of anyone's ability to experience fulfilling relationships, friendships, & professional opportunities.
​
Through my Accent Reduction Program, I am happy to work privately with motivated learners who want to learn "American-style" English pronunciation, voice quality, intonation, & presentation skills.
​
It is my honor to see my gifts as an Accent Reduction Coach enable such a profound transformation in my clients' lives.
