I recently completed ten lessons with Sonya, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the very first session, I was impressed by the personalised approach Sonya took to understand my goals and challenges. By introducing specifics skills, Sonya made sure to tailor each lesson to suit my unique needs (whether it was improving my clarity, confidence, or pacing).
Sonya is a brilliant coach who holistically approaches all three areas - voice, speech and pronunciation. Her unique approach tailors lessons to individual clients and their goals. Subject of each lesson is always discussed in advance and Sonya is happy to adapt the course to client's individual needs, pace of learning and areas of interest. She helped me to improve my accent and presenting skills, as well as gain confidence and embrace my individual voice. I can't recommend her highly enough!
Pronunciation classes with Sonya was my best investment ever. Being able to speak clearly boosted my confidence sky-high in general, and helped me succeed in several work-related and life projects. In the past I often avoided speaking to people, it felt so awkward when people couldn't understand you - it was easier to not speak at all. Speech clarity opened new horizons. If English is not your native language I strongly recommend to take at least a familiarisation class, to learn what are your weakest pronunciation points. You will be shocked. And the fixes are often very easy, but very efficient.
The 10 sessions I spent working with Sonya to improve my pronunciation were a transformative experience. She is not only highly experienced but also patient and encouraging, adapting her teaching methods to individual needs. She helped me understand the position of my tongue and the posture of my body while speaking, which greatly improved my self-awareness and made it easier to correct myself. Under her guidance, my speech clarity and pronunciation have improved significantly, and I feel more confident when speaking. It’s been a valuable investment in myself.
I worked with Sonya for 7 sessions and I’m so happy that I found her. She is very professional and clearly and expert in her field. She gave me many tips and most importantly the techniques to achieve my goals. She also resolved all my queries where I found any difficulties. I now feel equipped to use my voice with confidence.
I had a 10-session course with Sonya. She's super professional, nice and patient. The course is well structured and it helped me find and correct lots of my pronouncing issues and bad speaking habits. Highly recommend if you want to further improve your english pronunciation, speech, voice.
Sonya showed her training skills and profound professionalism. She tailored the content of the course for the sounds which I usually get wrong. We have a lot of deep diving in these areas thus the course in the end turned out to be very successful. Now I can not only speak precisely but also with a lot more confidence. It in a way completely changed my image in my workplace.
