University of Miami Accent Modification for Non-Native English Speakers
The Accent Modification Program is an eight-week course designed to help non-native English speakers improve their overall comprehension in spoken English, not eliminate accents, but enhance clarity and confidence. With both asynchronous modules and live sessions, participants gain personalized guidance on stress, rhythm, and intonation for more effective communication in professional and everyday settings.
- 8 asynchronous modules with pre-recorded lessons, pronunciation tools, and weekly exercises.
- 2 live Zoom sessions during weeks 4 and 8 for reinforcement and real-time Q&A (6:30–7:30 p.m. EST).
- Weekly feedback: Students submit recorded exercises and receive personalized video feedback from the instructor.
- Rather than removing accents, the course helps participants develop an awareness of what drives clear communication and how to apply that knowledge effectively.
