About Monica
I was born and raised in Montgomery, Alabama with a dream of becoming an actress. I had to do a lot of work on my voice and my accent. Thank goodness I discovered Arthur Lessac's work, the "Stanislavski" of voice, speech, singing and movement in the training world!
Through my Lessac training, I achieved an easy, fun and healthy way to project, expand my vocal range and clean up my diction. I also created a way to use Lessac's work to help others to achieve a Standard American Accent.
Now I am a Certified Lessac Trainer and I've been working with Actors and Professionals for over 30 years to improve their speaking voices, American English pronunciation and desired theatrical accents.

Who are these classes for?
People who already speak English and want to better their English pronunciation.
People who want to speak with an American accent like actors, public speakers, doctors, attorneys etc.
People with heavy regional accents who would like to soften them.
What do we do in class?
We identify the optimal placement of the lips, tongue and teeth.
We explore all of the consonant and vowel sounds of the American Accent.
We will learn how to make connections between words, phrases and sentences in order to develop an American speaking cadence or pattern of speaking.
We explore both optimal pronunciation and "sloppy" or "casual" American pronunciation.

Perfect! Monica was great! Her unique approach to accent reduction was both effective and fun. I was amazed by her ability to speak English with accents from all over the world. She is patient, friendly, knowledgeable and very attentive to detail. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to improve their accent.

I have known Monica for over 10 years while working with her as an actor, director, and fight choreographer. She also was my vocal coach for a time period of about six months. During this time I got real clarity on how to best formulate accents and dialects as well as accent reduction with whatever I was out to communicate. Her process is very specific and precise, and really works with every single student to maximize potential. Such a worthwhile investment to work with Monica.
Amazing teacher with a system that helps you understand the nuances of pronunciation in a simple and fun way. After 2 years of working with various tutors, it’s Monica who helped me improve my American Standard English pronunciation and get approved to do voiceover at work (I’m a video journalist at a large international media company).
I started taking classes with Monica to improve my accent, and after just a few lessons, I could already notice a significant improvement.
The materials are excellent, and Monica’s teaching methods and approach are truly the best. She makes the lessons engaging, effective, and easy to follow. I highly recommend her classes!See more recommendations
