About Shahd

I hold a 150-hour TESOL certification from Arizona State University. As a native Arabic speaker who has successfully mastered a neutral American accent, I understand the exact phonetic and physical challenges Arabic speakers face. Standard English classes teach grammar, but they do not teach the physical mechanics of mouth placement, airflow, and vocal resonance required to change how you sound. I provide the technical framework to bridge that gap.

English

Accent modification is a physical training process. We will systematically isolate the specific consonant and vowel sounds that do not exist in Arabic and drill the exact tongue and lip placements needed to produce them.

Beyond individual sounds, we will focus on the rhythm of American English. We will break down connected speech, vowel reduction, and syllable stress so that your speech sounds natural, fluid, and effortless, rather than robotic or overly enunciated.

What You Can Expect
Phonetic Isolation: Correcting specific challenging sounds (such as P vs. B, or specific vowel shifts) through targeted drills.

Connected Speech: Learning how Americans link words together and drop sounds in natural conversation.

Intonation and Rhythm: Mastering the musicality of American English, focusing on pitch and word stress to convey the correct meaning and confidence.

Shadowing & Recording: Intensive repetition and audio analysis of your speech to identify and correct micro-errors.

Who This Is For
This course is for advanced English speakers, working professionals, or actors who already possess strong grammar and vocabulary but want to communicate with greater clarity, reduce listener friction, and sound more like a native American English speaker.
