About Marianne
I’m a Speech & Language Therapist with a passion for phonetics (sounds). I’ve been raised by a French mother & an English father, with exposure to French, Spanish, & Italian family & friends. I developed an early interest in noting the differences in vowels, intonation & the common error patterns before qualifying as a SLT in 2016. I respect people’s first language & heritage, & so my professional focus is on helping people speak with clarity & confidence rather than losing their accent completely. It is up to the individual how far they want to take their accent towards a standard British English (no regional hints) / RP (Received Pronounciation) accent. Many people feel that once they stop experiencing miscommunications & can speak with confidence, they’re happy keeping a soft foreign accent. What matters the most is that an accent doesn’t get in the way of communication. So that others can focus on what is being said rather than being distracted or confused by how it is being said.

Do you have any concerns about your accent when speaking English, or feel frustrated with miscommunications & being asked to repeat? Perhaps you would like to improve your confidence in speaking clearly for ease of daily life or work meetings. Following an assessment of your accent profile, we can work together following a tailored programme according to your current accent & goals.
With a focus on naturalness we will work across multiple areas to improve communication, looking at sound accuracy, rhythm, intonation, as well as vocabulary & grammar if necessary.
I use evidence based speech & language therapy techniques in challenging and fun sessions. I offer sessions in person & on zoom weekly or twice a week.
Reviews
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience had by the students of Marianne.
Perfect! Excellent! I really enjoyed my first session - Marianne took the time to understand my aims and motivation. The first session was more of an assessment but she was able to get me started with some activities to practice, and she explain to me clearly the theory of the sounds and intonation patterns I need to work on. I enjoyed her sense of humour and felt comfortable. I'm excited to continue - thank you!
- Great to work with you Lilianne, I can see you´ve reflected on your goals and are very motivated to progress with your clarity of speech. Thank you :)Marianne's response :

Recommendations

I have seen Marianne in a teaching role several times and I have been consistently impressed by her ability to improve her students understanding of the English language and their communication skills.
Marianne is kind, professional, and patient with an impressive aptitude for conveying information clearly and understandably.I've known Marianne since university. She has an excellent theoretical and practical knowledge of phonetics and accents, is also a kind, compassionate therapist who always works collaboratively for the best outcomes for her clients.
Marianne is a wonderful person and a highly experienced Speech & Language Therapist. Her communication skills and approach are excellent, especially with people from diverse language backgrounds. Highly recommend!
I would thoroughly recommend Marianne as a tutor and speech & language therapist
I’ve worked with Marianne for 10 years. She is a passionate and approachable speech and language therapist who is a lot of fun to work with. I would highly recommend her services.I found Marianne when looking for a qualified speech and language therapist to help me with my English speaking as a 2nd language learning, and she’s been my tutor for the last six months.
I’m very satisfied with the level of confidence she’s helped me to achieve: I enjoyed our lessons a lot thanks to their structure, personalisation (working more intensely on the words I found the hardest), and the goals she’s set for me each week. I also appreciate the fact that she gave me useful daily homework to complete between lessons, was great in keeping me motivated, and always had time to answer my questions.
Since working with her there’s been a significant transformation in my pronunciation and clarity, and I now feel people in my office understand me much better, and there aren’t any miscommunications when speaking to my colleagues. I would definitely recommend Marianne as a tutor!View more recommendations
