ABOUT US
Precise American
English Academy
Our programs aim not to eliminate your accent but to improve your ability to communicate clearly and effectively in American English.
Non-native speakers often pronounce English based on their native sound systems of stress and intonation, which can vary significantly in English. This frequently leads to miscommunication and can cause frustration for the speaker and listener.

She is very professional and knows how to identity people's problems with English pronunciation and increased my ability to work more effectively with students and faculty.

“ My wife had accent reduction training with Tracey and we are both pleased with the outcome. As much as I've tried to help her, I didn't have the skills to make it work. The 13-week program has given her more clarity with her daily interactions and confidence in her English pronunciation. ”
