We have a variety of programs available 

to meet the needs of individuals and corporations:

Small Intensive Programs

Private Programs

Corporate Programs

All programs use the PRISM materials and are taught by Sharon Heffley. These materials include a workbook and CD.  The CD includes the audio lessons that are used for home practice, allowing you to practice the sounds   and melodies of American English that you learn in class.

This process helps you to improve your listening and speaking skills. Soon, you will be able to monitor and correct your own errors as you speak!

All programs begin with an evaluation to determine your program goals in the following areas:

• Pronunciation of vowels and consonants

• syllable stress

• intonation patterns

• rate of speech

• melody

• ability to hear subtle differences in the sounds of American English

 The intensive programs are available to corporations at any time, with either weekend or weekday classes.

We offer our intensive group programs on- site to corporations who wish to aid employees with their communication skills.  In addition to accent modification programs, we also offer presentation skills program for non-native speakers of English.  Visit this link to learn more.

These programs are designed for individuals who:

-   need or desire more individual attention.

-   may need fewer sessions due to a lighter than average accent and have specific goals he/she  wishes to work on.  

In addition, presentation skills coaching can be done in private classes. Skills covered include: 

• organization of presentations

• clarity of thought

• clarity of speech

• timing

• body language

• speaking style

You may enroll in private classes at any time.  All private classes with Sharon Heffley are done via web cam.
