The ACCENT CLEAR Philosophy

Treatment focuses on improving speech clarity, not simply reducing or modifying an accent, and patterns that have little or no impact on clarity do not need to be worked on.

Accents are a part of a person’s history and personality and do not need to be eliminated in order to effectively communicate in English.

Sylvia Whiteside is a registered Speech Language Pathologist who has been working exclusively in the area of Accent Reduction Training in Toronto since 2005.

Sylvia teaches her clients to effectively manage their accents by targeting those features, including stress and intonation, that impact most on clear speech.
