- Why SpeechSchool.TV?
Solving problems with language today:
English is the world's most studied language. It's the language of
travel and business. For many it's a route to success.
Yet speaking it well can be elusive...
Everyday around the world millions of students study English. Most
of that time is spent on learning new words and understanding grammar.
That's important but there's often little time left to teach
pronunciation or develop a living spoken language
without the limits of a strong accent from the speaker's first language.
Meanwhile people from all walks of life experience discrimination and
needless difficulty because they can't be understood clearly. This
could be due to a strong foreign accent, speech impairment (like
mumbling or stuttering) or a lack of confidence. For most, regular
weekly sessions with a professional voice coach or speech therapist are
simply out of reach.
Even native speakers of English, who have been speaking the language all
their life also experience situations where they can't speak in the way
they would like to. This is often in work settings where the
techniques of persuasive and magnetic communication have never been
taught.
Developing solutions using the latest technology:
After 30 years of development, SpeechSchool.TV partnered with the e-centre at
Massey University
to create high quality programs that could replicate individual
speech training, voice coaching and presentation training using multimedia technology, finally making
ongoing
speech improvement available to all who needed it.
Since this time the School has gone on to offer programs to English
speakers (first and second language) around the world as well as to
schools, universities, private training
establishments, help desks & businesses.
The only dedicated English Speech School to offer complete
audio visual training with moderated assessment,
SpeechSchool.TV has become the world's #1 provider of online speech
training. Everyday we work to build and create the best possible speech
program for you and our partners.
