I deeply appreciate the opportunity I had to attend Femigrants Business Club: East Bay Edition hosted by Aytakin Aliyeva🌛 floral event on Friday as an Ally 🌺 Surrounded by exceptionally talented, driven, and creative immigrant women, I felt so inspired by their spirits, journeys, and careers. I cherish the wonderful advice and insights I received on how I can better support this community of Femigrant Changemakers ✨

Welcome to my living room :)

Today I decided to shift camera angles from a plain white wall behind me to sharing my favorite part of my home: my plants! Some small ones I’ve planted indoors and some gigantic trees I adore outside my windows.

I realize more and more as the days pass and I meet new inspiring clients, how important it is for me to be my authentic self as their coach, so they can feel safe and comfortable to bring their whole self to their Accent Transformation journeys.

Seeing beautiful nature and cozy couches hopefully welcomes their souls to feel even more comfortable and peaceful during our sessions together.

What makes you feel safe and comfortable to thrive in your life?

“In a nutshell, Katya is an empathic coach. Her professional guidance helped me understand the nuances of pronunciation, intonation, and rhythm. Her tailored exercises and resources provided me with practical tools to practice outside our sessions, which greatly accelerated my progress. I must say that the coaching experience has been truly enlightening. The techniques Katya introduced, such as focusing on individual sounds and practicing tongue placement, have been incredibly effective. Her ability to create a comfortable and supportive learning environment made every session enjoyable. I express my deepest appreciation for the impact that Katya has made on the English accent in the community.” - Ranjith S., Senior Program Manager, Ex-Amazon

Work with a Professional Actor

Why?

Because actors understand

The importance of feeling

Clear + confident

When they speak onstage

At auditions

And even with strangers at a pub –

We are constantly thinking about

Our words

How to pronounce them

And express their meaning

DRAMATICALLY

And… with subtlety

So who better to help you

Than a professional actor

Who is in love with words

And knows how to speak them ever so well? 😉

✨How to feel like YOU in English ✨

Finding your authentic voice

In a new language is a journey

So my *Top Tip* is to make it

FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN !!!!!!!

When you talk about something you *love*

Your passion will show

And even if you stumble on a word

Or forget a little grammar rule --

Your excitement for the subject

Will *lift* you up

And keep you going!

Try this exercise at home:

1. Pick a subject you LOVE!
2. Look up 5-10 related English vocabulary words
3. Write one paragraph in English about this passion
4. Find a conversation buddy
5. Ask, “What is your passion?” And share yours too!

If I was your buddy

I would talk about... CATS

My heart melts every time I see one

I grew up with more than 16

And I dream of them weekly!
