Coaching by Lisa Jeffery has been one of the best investments I have ever made since I arrived to the United States. I am Mexican, my accent is strong. I spoke English like I spoke Spanish. Then, how could I break these habits? Someone told me: “accent reduction training is not worthy and you are going to throw your money away.” Really? Then I found Lisa. With her training, I learned a lot of rules and techniques that helped me improve my speech. The experience is as a little kid’s learning process, but with more frustration because my brain learned to speak English differently. Articulation is not easy when English is your second language. Now I am more confident to speak up. I not only speak better, but I understand other people better! I understand movies and TV news better because I improved my listening comprehension as well, this is amazing! In my office meetings, I can be focused, because I am articulating. Thanks Lisa!"
Maria Celeste Arrarás,
NBC Co-Host, The Today Show
"I worked with Lisa Jeffery for accent reduction when I was asked to be co-host on the Today Show. In Miami, Lisa showed me how to reduce my accent considerably. I enjoyed working with Lisa — she helped me make an amazing breakthrough during the training. I highly recommend her!"
Steven Goldstein,
Official FERRARI racing pilot
“On the personal front, speaking eloquently and with a ‘neutral’ accent has always been an important aspiration for me. On the professional front, conveying a clear and persuasive message has become a must in my role where I am frequently interacting with the media and representing brands. Lisa delivered on both fronts. Among the various speech coaches with whom I have worked, Lisa stands out. She is worldly and has refined taste, having lived in many countries around the globe. Her sessions are entertaining, and the results are realized without having to undertake tedious homework."
The Art of Being Memorable
Can people learn techniques for being a great speaker? Is there a formula? YES, there is! First, it is being authentic. Secondly, it's studying the masters, learning the secrets that they knew. And third, it’s exuberance, that wonderful formula that keeps us from being boring.
Would you like to improve your Public Speaking skills with the help of a coach in a small group environment? This workshop features private coaching in a small group. This workshop is about being more influential, more memorable, more persuasive.
This class helps you develop and improve your skills in Public Speaking by learning the techniques of great speakers... the people we never forget and why we do not forget them. Memorable people make us feel special. We think about them often, we remember what they say, how they say it and what they do. How is it that some people are more memorable than others? What is it that makes them unforgettable? Why do we remember their presentations?
This is a fun and lively workshop that helps you become the real you, find the sparkle that's inside, learn how to motivate and inspire others, and develop the confidence and communication skills that can help you become memorable to everyone around you. You will analyze how to “say things the BORING way” and then liven it up with fire, exuberance and word pictures! You’ll learn to explain things using powerful metaphors, which cut the understanding and guarantees that people remember your words and ideas! Being memorable and the skills of great communication can be learned, and YOU can be a great speaker.

Public Speaking Bootcamp:
Overcome Stage Fright and Become a Great Speaker
What are the biggest challenges people face about public speaking?
"I get nervous and lose my train of thought!"
"I stutter and can't say what I want to say!"
"It's hard to give a presentation in English when it's not my first language!"
"I freeze."
"I'm just not very good and don't know how to get better!"
"Can't I just read what I have to say?"
"I can talk one-on-one, but not to a group!"
"I just don't know how to present my content in the best way."
These are the things that people have said about public speaking. It is very common. Public speaking is a set of skills, and not a talent. It can be practiced and perfected with the help of a coach. This is Lisa's philosophy. Anyone can learn, practice and master the skills of public speaking.So in Lisa's coaching and training, she offers a solution to get started and to practice to improve your public speaking skills. Her solution is to provide a safe place to learn and practice in a small group. Lisa coaches the skills, and gives students an oportunity to practice them. Build confidence, learn the skills of organizing thoughts, have a fabulous delivery and learn to speak without reading notes!
This is a fun and lively workshop that challenges you in a safe environment. Developing speaking skills helps you become the real you, find the sparkle that's inside, learn how to motivate and inspire others.
Lisa teaches you techniques to build your confidence, overcome your fear of public speaking, and have quick-thinking recovery skills when you make a mistake. Lisa teaches public speaking in all-day “boot camps". You will learn to organize your ideas and polish your delivery skills as you begin to develop your own speaking style.
You will make presentations and learn to 'speak on your feet' in front of a safe, supporting audience and coach. You will learn how to tame your anxiety and use that adrenalin to your advantage. This course is appropriate for the novice as well as experienced and communicator.
