Birmingham School of Elocution

Elocution has come of age! Gone are the images of stuffy Victorian drawing rooms! My method of teaching elocution is the science of speech training. Based upon my own post-graduate research into speech and linguistics, I have established a quick and easy way to give anybody confidence in speaking and communication.

Today’s world is highly competitive and it is vital that professionals and those who seek to further their careers, gain the vital skills in communication. Accent Reduction - the Birmingham School of Elocution teaches adults a fast and effective way to reduce or soften their accents. My approach to elocution will transform your speaking voice and increase your confidence.

The Birmingham School of Elocution also offers children’s classes. Children from 8 to 16 years of age are taught to develop a confident and clear speaking style – and to gain LAMDA communication certificates - recognised by universties!

The Birmingham School of Elocution provides one-to-one speech training session to adult clients. Children’s classes are available on weekends and evenings.
