Is your spoken American English leaving you behind in your career and life?

You're a seasoned professional who speaks English as a second language at an advanced level but want to take your speaking skills higher.

You're frustrated when asked to repeat yourself. You lose sleep over presentations. And you feel unpolished when answering questions.

You have English-speaking dreams that require you to have greater confidence, clarity, and ease when speaking.

Who is this course for

Key outcomes

When it comes to acquiring proficiency in a second language, copying the sounds and speech patterns of native English speakers is your best bet for achieving success and tackling your fluency challenges. Join The Great Imitation Challenge™️ and model your way to success!

Model your preferred native English speaker through imitation

Have you been working on your American accent without the results you desire? Join The Great Imitation Challenge™️ and experiment with applying thought chunking, emphasis, rhythm, melody, diction, and flow so that losing your accent becomes secondary to mastering your speech.

Experiment with the 6 frameworks inside The Diamond Method™️

Having an intellectual understanding of a foreign language is different from speaking with amazing skills. You need to become the speaker and listener at the same time. Join The Great Imitation Challenge™️, fine-tune your self-awareness, and become that amazing speaker yourself!

Dissect your (and your peers') speech and build an incredible ear for English

When you put in the time required to be successful in The Great Imitation Challenge™️, your hard work will take you inside deeper conversations and greater opportunities. The end of the challenge is just the beginning of many more rewards to come.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Feel rewarded by your hard work resulting in enhanced English-speaking skills and confidence

You'll begin your challenge by choosing the native English speaker you'd like to model for the next three weeks. We'll call this person your "Guru." During this phase of the challenge, you'll also learn The 6 Diamond Method™️ Frameworks that will enhance your communication skills in English.

Part One: Who's your guru?

You'll spend a significant amount of time observing how your Guru uses The Diamond Method™️ Frameworks in their speech. This will get you inside the head of your Guru as you begin to take on their speaking style.

Part Two: Get inside your guru's head

After you've got an intellectual understanding of how your Guru applies The Diamond Method™️ to their communication, it's time for you to imitate their speaking style through their words. In this next step, you worry less about the "language" and more about the application of the frameworks.

Part Three: Feel your guru's courage

Now that you have successfully applied The Diamond Method™️ frameworks to your Guru's speech, it's time for you to imitate their speaking style and apply the frameworks to your own thoughts and words. Are you ready to feel the magic?

Part Four: Find your guru's magic
