“I reached out to Brigid because of my difficulties pronouncing the “th” and other typical German accent features. I wanted to feel comfortable speaking English and be able to teach the language to my future students. From the first lesson on, we focused on the challenging sounds that needed practice. I could hear the improvement after a very short time which was a surprise, since I have been learning English for 15 years now. She also brought my attention to rhythm and prosody, which turned out to be more logical than I’d imagined and made a huge difference in “sounding more native.” All of the lessons were fun because of Brigid’s open and friendly way of teaching. I am confident about my pronunciation now and made progress that I would have never achieved by studying on my own.”
