“Having lived in English-speaking countries for more than 12 years and having previously taken an accent reduction course with another certified specialist / native English speaker, I did not notice any improvements in the clarity of my English, nor obtained any useful take-aways for future self-studies. At some stage I came across Tamara’s interview and from the interview I obtained more insights on how accent works than from the whole course that I had previously completed. From the start of my lessons with Tamara, I was impressed by Tamara’s professionalism and approach to lessons. Not only she equips you with a whole set of pronunciation rules but also meticulously monitors and brings to your attention the pronunciation errors that you make and highlights the improvements.
I was surprised by the type of obvious errors in pronunciation that I used to make wondering why people did not understand me; thanks to Tamara’s support I could rectify these short-comings, significantly improving quality of my communication in English. Some of her other valuable corrections and advice are by now engraved in my memory and I keep introducing them in my daily communication.
Based on my experience, Tamara is in the league of her own in the accent reduction profession.”
