Russian is a stress-timed language with a rich consonant system — but many of those consonants and vowel patterns don't have direct equivalents in English. For Russian-speaking professionals in Canada, this often shows up as difficulty with English vowel reduction, certain consonant clusters, and the specific intonation patterns that English listeners use to assess confidence and authority. These are exactly the patterns our licensed SLPs are trained to identify and address.
We've worked with thousands of Russian-speaking professionals across tech, engineering, science, and finance — helping them communicate with greater clarity and professional presence in English.
Our SLPs are registered clinicians who conduct individualized assessments before designing your program. This means you're not working through a generic curriculum — you're working on exactly the sounds and patterns that are creating friction for you specifically.
