What the work
actually looks like.
Composite, anonymized snapshots from online 1:1 work with clients in Taiwan, the EU and across Asia. Identifying details are changed; formats, durations and outcomes represent real engagements.
CFO preparing for an English-language IPO roadshow
Starting point. Strong vocabulary, while pacing, breath and specific consonants collapsed under investor-question pressure.
Outcome. Speaking rate became more measured, target sounds stabilized in spontaneous speech, and the client led the full roadshow without an interpreter.
Tech founder rebuilding fluency after years of avoidance
Starting point. A founder had avoided keynotes, podcasts and all-hands for a decade. The goal was an unscripted public panel.
Outcome. Speaking avoidance fell significantly. The client delivered a 25-minute panel and later recorded six podcast interviews.
Preparing for an English oral exam and university interviews
Starting point. Written English was strong, while inconsistent sounds and pacing held back oral performance.
Outcome. Connected-speech accuracy and mock-interview scores improved; the student was accepted to their first-choice university.
Working on the English R and TH
Starting point. An adult professional had long been told adult R work was not possible and avoided saying their own name in meetings.
Outcome. The target sound moved from isolation into connected speech. The client now introduces themselves without rehearsal.
Supporting a child who confuses P and B
Starting point. A seven-year-old merged P and B in both languages, and the parents needed clarity about the cause and next steps.
Outcome. Assessment, targeted sound-pair work and a simple home protocol helped stabilize the contrast in both languages.
