About Kate
I combine specialist techniques from the field of Speech and Language Therapy with the 'tried and tested' methods I use to teach English as a foreign language (EFL).
This combined approach means I can help students with a wide range of difficulties and learning styles. Goal-setting is an important part of the process and sessions are tailored to meet a student's specific needs. Boosting your confidence and motivation is equally important, so sessions are challenging but fun!
I also have a modern languages degree (BA Joint Hons) and speak 3 additional languages. I've lived and worked abroad myself for long periods and so I fully understand the fun (but also the challenges!) of learning another language and trying to master it.

Hello there! If you know that your English pronunciation needs some work and you're keen to improve it, you are in the right place!
Perhaps you want to communicate more clearly? Maybe you're tired of having to repeat yourself or simply want to feel more confident when speaking English? These are all good reasons for starting pronunciation training.
But there are lots of other benefits too! Previous students have mentioned big improvements in lots of areas, including:
* commanding more RESPECT in professional environments
* sounding more FLUENT overall in English
* INTEGRATING better in English speaking communities
* enjoying better RELATIONSHIPS with English-speaking colleagues/friends
ABOUT ME
I'm Kate and I specialise in pronunciation/accent training.
I'm also an experienced Speech and Language Therapist (MSc) and qualified English teacher (EFL). I have used my skills and passion for pronunciation to help students from all over the world to speak more clearly and confidently.
I also have a degree in modern languages (BA HONS) and have learned several languages myself. So I understand that mastering a new language can be really fun but also really frustrating!
It's never too late to improve your pronunciation and you don't need a 'perfect ear for accents' to succeed; you just need the right kind of help and a commitment to your goal. In my sessions, we work hard, we make it fun and we see some real progress every session.
ABOUT THE SESSIONS
My pronunciation training sessions involve the following elements:
1. Initial assessment of strengths and needs
2. Setting goals – together we will establish what your goals are and what changes are realistic with the time and resources available to you.
3. Listening work – We will practise 'ear training' exercises to become more familiar with common errors in your own pronunciation.
4. Practical articulation work - I will help you to make tricky consonant and vowel sounds by showing you where to place your tongue and other articulators.
5. Rhythm and stress work - I'll help you to imitate the natural 'rhythm' of English when you are speaking.
6. Generalisation work - I'll help you make that transition from the classroom to the real world, so that you can integrate your new pronunciation patterns into everyday speech.
Please get in touch if you have any questions about me, you or my methodology.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Kate.
Perfect! I worked with Kate on accent reduction for almost a year, and it was a fantastic experience. At the very beginning she conducted a very thorough assessment that clearly highlighted the areas I needed to prioritise. Based on that, she prepared a structured learning plan and each lesson included a variety of activities that made the process engaging and effective.
Throughout the year we had weekly lessons, and Kate was always incredibly responsive between sessions. She regularly reviewed my recorded homework and provided detailed guidance, which really helped reinforce the learning. She also shared a lot of her own materials — from theory sheets to practical exercises — which were extremely useful.
Working with Kate was an absolute pleasure. The biggest testament to her work is that non-British people often assume I was born in the UK and are genuinely surprised when I say I wasn’t — and then they immediately ask for Kate’s contact details!Perfect! Kate is an excellent tutor, very organised and has developed a system that works , you do have to put in work but if you follow what she advises you can make significant improvements.
Perfect! Kate is an exceptional teacher. Her methodological approach to teaching is both engaging and enjoyable. Her professionalism is evident in every aspect of teaching.

Perfect! Kate has been a great teacher for me and is a joy to work with.
Her skills in speech therapy allows her to approach things methodically, through clearly defined steps.

Definitely a big confidence booster! Her initial evaluation promised me that Kate is going to be a wonderful teacher and I decided to sign up for her classes. She has different techniques to make sure I pronounce the words accurately. She is very cheerful and I always look forward to her classes every week. I highly recommend Kate as your tutor for your accent reduction!

- Ikuya has been an excellent student so far. He has made quick progress with the 'l' and 'r' sounds and can already produce difficult words much more clearly. He is aware of what he finds difficult and learns quickly. Well done, Ikuya! :)Kate's response :
Perfect! I've studied English as a Foreign language for long period but I couldn't realize my frequent or fossilized errors especially in pronunciation section. The most impressive thing of Kate class is a professional diagnosis. When I received my result of pronunciation test, I was shocked cause those are exactly same when I thought as my weakness or bad. As a tutor, precise ability to catch the weakness and strength of students is one of the essential attributes. Moreover, providing suitable resources such as easily accessible website is so helpful to practice in daily life. This was enough to make me feel how passionate and professional she is! Her teaching skills or techniques are reliable as well. To be honest, I am a primary school and KFL teacher in my country. As a educator, I would like to evaluate her class very highly and valuable. She is qualified and has plentiful knowledge of different language background. I would like to recommend you this class and this wonderful amazing teacher! I bet you won't regret!

It was my friend who told me about Kate because she was so excited to work with her. After seeing how much progress my friend had made after taking Kate's classes, I decided to sign up as well.
Kate is very thorough in her approach. She provides all the materials, detailed progress report, there is also a comprehensive test to evaluate a person's pronunciation level which is then used as a start base for work, but she constantly checks and adjusts based on the person's progress.
After only 5 sessions I feel that I have made very good progress and plan on continuing taking the sessions.
Most importantly, it's such a pleasure to work with Kate because of how she combines a great personality, attention and care for her clients with great professionalism. Her classes are never boring - there is always fun activity, and she can also adjust and train using your work materials.
I definitely recommend Kate's classes to the people with any level of English who want to improve their accent working with a great person.I worked with Kate for 3 years and was her line manager for 1. She is a highly competent and qualified teacher who takes her work very seriously.
Her experience in teaching and her knowledge of English pronunciation were a fantastic asset for us at the school. Through scheduled observations and conversations with her, I have noticed her passion for both languages and teaching, as well as her ability to plan and deliver engaging lessons. Besides this, her student feedback was consistently excellent.
Kate is an amazing teacher - I highly recommend her!I’m from Italy and when I started my accent reduction lessons with Kate a few months ago, I had a strong Italian/ Southern European accent. After the switch to WFH due to Covid, I’ve started spending a lot of time on video calls for internal meeting and clients meetings. At that point I felt very conscious about my accent as people often couldn’t understand me. That was really holding me back from progressing in my career.
After a few months of taking lessons with Kate my accent has improved massively and I was even promoted last month. The promotion was obviously not only due to my ’new accent’ but my manager told me, it played a role in it as I come across more confident and I have more credibility internally.
Kate genuinely cares about me learning and making progress. She’s really passionate about teaching and she really put her heart into it!Kate is a wonderful and competent tutor. She provided me with many helpful tips and excercises. Although I have been using English in business context for years, noone has drawn my attention to some pronounciation challenges I faced. What is even more important, Kate provides a lot of support and advice on how it make this learning stick. I would recommend Kate to any student willing to improve their English skills especially when it comes to accent and intonation.
Extremely methodical, Kate establishes easy rules to acquire perfect English pronunciation. She knows perfectly how to motivate her students and make classes interesting and very productive. Really effective. The improvement is noticeable from the first lesson.
