"Due to language fossilization, even after being fluent in English for over 15 years, I still had a fairly heavy Ukrainian accent. I tried several top teachers and you were the best in your approach by far. You correctly identified the issues in my pronunciation and created a plan to fix them. What does that mean for you NOW? My accent has been considerably reduced already. I really like these interim results. As another benefit of your lessons, due to better understanding of correct pronunciation, my comprehension has also improved. As a result of your lessons, I feel more confident in interaction with native English speakers. The new, more pressing issue now is that everything Ukrainian became popular in the last 6 months and I want my old accent back! I hope you can help me with that…"

“Before I took Bianca's class, I had talked to more than ten accent coaches, but hadn't found an ideal one. Many of the coaches don't really spend time on learning how to teach. Instead, they just ask students to mimic them, but don't tell students why and how. Some coaches would teach based on a textbook, which is not customized to individuals.

Bianca is different. I can tell she's very passionate about teaching, and she enjoy the great sense of achievement from seeing her students' improvement. I've had about 30 classes with Bianca since June 2020. She makes each class very informative and helpful. She is very knowledgeable in terms of accent reduction. I can feel my changes from learning with her. Of course, I spend lots of time practicing after class which is also very necessary. With the instruction from Bianca, I believe it'll be more efficient on the learning path of accent reduction. I'll continue to take her class without doubt.”

“I am a native speaker of both Spanish and Catalan. I learned English a long ago, but I only focused on passive skills. Later in life, my job required to speak in English and my skills were clearly lacking which made my speech harder to understand. To my surprise, I was not aware that English is a time stressed language. I have been using a wrong paradigm until I met Bianca. I have been attending most of the office hours Bianca offers for free. I have learned a lot of things I would have never learnt from a textbook. Her help is invaluable. Viewers from my YouTube channel have noticed the difference and I am receiving unsolicited prize for my improvement. That is due to all Q&A, exercises, challenges, and exchanges led by Bianca. I am finally able to recognize my own pronunciation mistakes and be more aware of how Americans actually pronounce the English Language.”

“I am a French-Spanish teacher and I wanted to improve my English since I moved from Chile to the U.S in 2015. I thought that if I only improved my pronunciation I would fix my accent and speak better English, although this is true, it’s not all.

When I first met Bianca I realized that I needed to work in different aspects of my English, from pronunciation, phonethics, phonology to rhythm, linking, placement and more.

After having one on one coaching through Skype with Bianca, I followed her in the transition to Discord. This has been an encouraging experience, I got to know other people from all over the world, that like me, are eager to improve their English and to dig deeper in all the aspects involving English learning.

Also, the workshop in Discord went way beyond language itself to discover how we can take steps in building good habits to grow in all aspects of life. Bianca is not just a professional and knowledgeable accent coach but she is an excellent life coach as well.

Although I still make mistakes, thanks to the tools, strategies, tips and tricks that Bianca taught me I feel more confident and my fluency is going up!

Due to my job as an interpreter, I need a very high level of English proficiency. I think that if I continue applying Bianca’s advice I’ll be there very soon.”

"I knew a few things about working on my accent before. But Bianca helped to get it to a whole new level. For several lessons, she explained to me tons of nuances about English sounds, which otherwise would have taken me months or even years of self-study. Her classes are very structured, which means there is no time-wasting and every minute you spend goes to building up your speaking confidence and accuracy. Of course, there is no easy way to get rid of or even reduce your native accent, but Bianca knows a lot of “tricks” that can help you improve your English pronunciation right away. I’m still using the drills and warm-up routines she tailored for me to work on some of my soft spots. That experience totally helped me to make a difference".

“I am a native French speaker whose work is mainly in English. I am always looking for tools and ways to improve my level in English. Pronunciation is my concern. That is why I started working with coach Bianca. For the first session, she assessed my level of English pronunciation and listed the areas for improvement. She made a list of my accent mistakes and errors. It means a lot to me. I have done many assessments in the past, but none of them gave me such an overview of what I should work on to improve my English pronunciation. It was scientific and systematic. It made me fill that it is possible to reach my goal and speak like a native English speaker.”

Now, I feel it’s much easier to pronounce words and get more flow while reading out loud. I really appreciate her sessions because I got to know the sounds on a deeper level more than before.”

"I had no idea that I was reproducing in English the nasal sounds that I have in my mother language, Portuguese. I've been doing the exercise where you block the air of your nose and try to speak. If the sound is really weird and the air is trying to come out from your nose, it means you're doing a nasal sound. I think I'm more aware now that I know that I'm producing these sounds. I still have to work more on it, but I'm definitely doing better.”

“I generally felt my voice is pretty flat and soft...
...But, I learned what parts of my account sounded West Cost, which I didn’t notice at all......Bianca helped me understand there isn’t anything wrong the way I speak (using vocal fry or upspeak), it is just my style, and I can always choose to change it or keep it as it is.”

"Placement: I have a high-pitch head voice that sometime get squeaky.
Solution: I learnt from Bianca about placement, headvoice vs chest voice, and pitch control
Result: I am more aware and have better control of my pitch and voice now.

Ryhthm: I have terrible ryhthm. I do not know how to change the lengths of the words in my sentence. This is mainly because I am from Vietnam.
Solution: Bianca demonstrated for me what ryhthm is and how to start practising it.
Result: I am more aware of how to speak with ryhthm now and start incorporating it in my daily speech.

Intonation: I am aware of intonation, but only in extreme cases such as raising voices at the end of the sentences or when someone is exaggerating out a role.
Solution: Bianca showed me how a sentence changes with different intonation.
Result: I am more aware of innonation now and start varying my pitch during my sentence."

“I couldn't distinguish which syllable should be stressed and how to stress it with a musical tone. After studying with Bianca, she taught me to use the daDAdada strategy, which is very easy to remember and mimic. It is easy to understand and it is beautiful. Now, after the special training with Bianca, I can catch the right musical rhythm and stressed syllables when I am reading and listening. I am enjoying the music rhythm in the language now.”
