About Liudmila
- What kind of experience do you have?
English Tutor & Accent Coach | Phonetics Specialist | 25+ Years Experience
Do you speak good English but struggle to be understood? Do you avoid speaking in meetings, interviews, or on camera because your accent holds you back?
I can fix that — and I can explain exactly why it works.
I'm Liudmila, an English tutor and accent coach based in Ipswich, Suffolk, teaching online and in person. I hold a Master's in Linguistics and trained in Phonetics under world-renowned specialists — giving me a depth of expertise that very few English tutors can match. I don't just teach pronunciation by imitation. I understand the science of how sounds are formed and can identify precisely what needs to change and why.
I can help you:
Reduce or modify your accent for clearer communication
Build confidence for presentations, interviews, and exams
Master the pronunciation patterns that native speakers notice most
Communicate naturally and professionally at work
Results my students have achieved:
100% exam pass rates
Promotions and new jobs
Freedom from interpreters and miscommunication at work

If you like to achieve then I am a tutor for you. I can help you set some language goals and achieve them. Being a non-native speaker gives me an advantage because I know what you are going through.
