Vivienne Zhao, M.Sc.(A), Slp Email & Phone Number

You’ve spent years, even decades, perfecting your English. You have advanced-level English skills but are frustrated by communication breakdowns due to your accent. You have tried to improve your pronunciation using free online resources and perhaps have even hired an English tutor, but have yet to see significant progress. You are tired of people looking puzzled and asking you to repeat your message. You are a competent professional and have high-level English, and you wish that this would come across in conversation. If any of this is relatable, you are far from alone in your struggles. Hi! I’m Vivienne Zhao, an accent reduction expert with over 20 years of experience. I believe in the power of speaking confidently, and I’m dedicated to helping you meet your accent goals. I’ve helped many professionals communicate more clearly, working one-on-one via zoom, as well as facilitating groups training and workshops tailored to the needs of specific organizations (for instance, outsourced customer service departments). My expertise with accents and accent modification comes not only from my studies and work experience but also from my own personal background. I was born and raised in China, but my life has taken me all around the world. I lived in both the U.S. state of California and England before settling in Canada, so I know first-hand the challenges that a foreign accent can make when living and working in a new country. Furthermore, I am trilingual in Mandarin, English, and French. Becoming fluent in speaking and working in these languages helped me develop my own personalized language modification strategies. My combination of academic excellence, certified work in the field, and personal experience with language adjustment challenges bring something unique to the table. I have helped countless people achieve confidence in their communication skills. When you’re ready to take your life and professional career to the next level, I can help you discover the world of new opportunities as a confident speaker.Let’s connect here on LinkedIn.
