Speech Training for Non-Native English Speakers

Wednesday, November 2, 2022
6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Cosmos Room

Boost your ability to communicate clearly and confidently in English. This workshop is for people who have a fairly good command of written English and want to be better understood when speaking.

Every person has an accent, and accents are a natural part of spoken language. This workshop is designed to reduce the frustration of not being easily understood, not to "get rid of an accent." Topics include pronunciation of English consonant and vowel sounds, intonation features that can emphasize and convey meaning, and voice quality.

Speech-language pathologist Sharyn Reiff’s passion for helping people speak more clearly came from observing dynamics in her own family. As a member of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, she has been helping people with their speech for more than three decades.

Registration required. Limited to 12 participants.
