Start with the book Get Rid of your Accent for Business, Part Three

and an accompanying app Business English Speech (iOS/Android)

About the book:

Get Rid of Your Accent for Business, Part 3 is a groundbreaking first of its kind — the only book on the market that combines Received Pronunciation training with contemporary business vocabulary to communicate with authority in the workplace.

This book is based on the material we prepared for our elocution lessons and accent-reduction courses for diplomats and professionals. Below is what our clients told us before they mastered their speech:

"If I don't speak clearly, I will just remain a junior IT guy making peanuts who is staring at the computer all day and never even allowed to go to meetings." — Yago, IT Consultant

"My boss told me: If I don't lose my accent, I will lose my job." — Gulnara, Financial Advisor

"In our company, we have two bosses: a Japanese one who does everything, and an English one who does very little apart from talking, but makes more money as he has great speech and presentation skills!" — Judy, Marketing Firm

The book covers:

  • 🔤 Long vowels, short vowels, diphthongs and consonants — with clear speech organ positioning guides for every target sound

  • 💼 Contemporary business words and expressions used in today's professional world

  • ✍️ Quotes and proverbs that make learning both effective and enjoyable

  • 🔗 Contractions, silent letters and French expressions used by educated English speakers

  • 🗣️ Warm-up articulation exercises to build crisp, dynamic speech from day one

 

The Method

As with our previous books, the approach is rooted in drama-school technique:

  • Understand the precise positioning of lips, tongue and jaw for each sound

  • Build muscle memory through words, phrases, sentences, verses and tongue-twisters — 10% theory, 90% practice.

  • All exercises are supported by audio tracks recorded by professional actors, available on Audible and through the companion app Business English Speech

 

Get Rid of Your Accent for Business is the definitive guide for any professional who understands that how you speak can be just as important as what you say.
