About Shahd
I hold a 150-hour TESOL certification from Arizona State University. As a native Arabic speaker who has successfully mastered a neutral American accent, I understand the exact phonetic and physical challenges Arabic speakers face. Standard English classes teach grammar, but they do not teach the physical mechanics of mouth placement, airflow, and vocal resonance required to change how you sound. I provide the technical framework to bridge that gap.

Accent modification is a physical training process. We will systematically isolate the specific consonant and vowel sounds that do not exist in Arabic and drill the exact tongue and lip placements needed to produce them.
Beyond individual sounds, we will focus on the rhythm of American English. We will break down connected speech, vowel reduction, and syllable stress so that your speech sounds natural, fluid, and effortless, rather than robotic or overly enunciated.
What You Can Expect
Phonetic Isolation: Correcting specific challenging sounds (such as P vs. B, or specific vowel shifts) through targeted drills.
Connected Speech: Learning how Americans link words together and drop sounds in natural conversation.
Intonation and Rhythm: Mastering the musicality of American English, focusing on pitch and word stress to convey the correct meaning and confidence.
Shadowing & Recording: Intensive repetition and audio analysis of your speech to identify and correct micro-errors.
Who This Is For
This course is for advanced English speakers, working professionals, or actors who already possess strong grammar and vocabulary but want to communicate with greater clarity, reduce listener friction, and sound more like a native American English speaker.

Honestly, this is the first time I've taken an English conversation class, and I'm really enjoying it because there's no explaining rules like in school. It's all conversation, which is exactly what I want.
Ms. Shad is really nice and friendly, and I don't notice the time passing when I'm talking to her.I loved my lessons with Shahd! She’s such a patient and encouraging teacher and made me feel completely comfortable making mistaks, which really helps me learn. She took my requests seriously and even created an entire lesson based on my specific needs 🥹 which meant so much to me. She is incredibly kind and truly cares about her students success. I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher!
I can’t say enough good things about my tutor. She is incredibly helpful and always comes prepared with a well structured lesson plan. It’s clear she puts a lot of time and research into her teaching, ensuring every session is productive. I really appreciate how we never waste time figuring out what to do next she always has a clear plan in place. I also love our yapping sessions
I highly recommend Shahd as an English teacher. She is a passionate and professional educator who consistently motivates her students to achieve academic success. Her lessons are well-structured, engaging, and thoughtfully designed to support different learning styles. She demonstrates patience, creativity, and strong classroom leadership. She is an inspiring and dedicated English teacher who always encourages students to reach their full potential.
Shahd’s approach to teaching English is incredibly effective. Instead of just focusing on textbook rules, she emphasizes how English is actually spoken in the real world. She is excellent at explaining everyday vocabulary, idioms, and conversational flow in a way that makes immediate sense to an Arabic speaker. If you want to stop translating in your head and start speaking fluently, she is the perfect choice.
