Charles is truly an amazing teacher. I had tried other accent teachers before him but I wasn’t left believing that I could “get rid of ” my Korean accent. But Charles approached it all in different way and he was spot on. His teaching methods and knowledge literally changed my perspective on mastering English pronunciation and the American accent. Charles clearly showed me how to adjust the specific positions and settings of my tongue, lips and jaw as well as my vocal resonance. Game changer! I’ve been going to see Charles regularly and many people, especially casting directors recognize how much my accent has disappeared! I highly, highly recommend Charles. He is simply the best.

“Charles Becker is a fabulous teacher. I’m an actress from Zurich, working professionally and auditioning here in the U.S. where it is crucial to be able to speak with an American accent. What distinguishes Charles from other accent reduction teachers is that he is a skilled musician who has a tremendous sense of hearing. He hears even the slightest mistakes in sound and pitch and will work with you till you get it right, repositioning the tongue and adjusting the rhythm and intonation.
He is familiar with various accents from around the world and knows how to work on your individual needs. Charles is an honest person who will “call you out” when you make a mistake, all the while remaining patient and keeping faith in you. In addition to that, he has a great sense of humor and is always up to date. My American accent has certainly improved with only a few months of help!”

Anyone Can Do It!
Everyone is capable of speaking English with clarity and proper pronunciation. There is no trick to it. There is no “good accent gene” that some people have and others do not. The ability to speak English clearly and accurately is simply an awareness of the sounds of the language, and a knowledge of how and when to produce them. Some people pick these sounds up more quickly than others, but everyone, no matter their age or background, can improve. All it takes is a willingness to learn and the time to practice. You, too, can achieve a near-native accent! Let Charles help.
