About Chloe

I don't try to change your accent — I help people understand you the first time. We work on the sounds, stress and rhythm that cause the most misunderstandings for speakers of your language.

I taught in Japan for four years, and pronunciation was the thing my students asked for most. I now coach professionals and IELTS candidates who want to speak clearly and with confidence.

Why this works: Addresses a common worry head on ("I don't try to change your accent"). Answering objections in the bio saves a back-and-forth by email.

Why this works: Four focused specialisms beat ten vague ones. Learners filter the directory by subject and level, so precise choices put you in front of the right students.

What your first lesson looks like

1. You read a short text and speak freely for two minutes; I record both.
2. I identify your top three clarity issues for your first language.
3. You get audio examples and a five-minute daily practice routine.

Why this works: A daily practice routine tells learners progress continues between lessons — a strong reason to choose a specialist.
