Accent Coaching For Ambitious Dental Professionals

Do you lack confidence when speaking English? Do your patients and colleagues often misunderstand you and ask you to repeat yourself? Are losing patients to other dentists? Do you want to sound more natural to native English speakers?

You are not alone!

I have been helping dental professionals like yourself for over 10 years. I know the challenges Portuguese and Spanish speakers have with English. I help dentists, endodontists, and dental educators speak more natural English that native listeners respond positively to. People will hear your message and not your accent!

Contact me today for a free half hour strategy session. We can discuss your needs, you can see how fun and effective my classes are, and how soon you will be speaking English with confidence!

Theodore Lapekas

ESL Teacher & Accent Reduction Specialist

I’m Theodore “Ted” Lapekas. I’ve been teaching English for the past 10 years and accent reduction for the past five years. I began teaching, 10 years ago, in Panama City, Panama. I taught Marketing and Business Psychology at the University of Louisville there as well as English at several different government schools.

Five years ago I moved to Miami and taught English and Accent Reduction at a language school here. When the Pandemic caused the schools to close I decided to focus on accent reduction and began to seek online students. I have found face-to-face classes on the computer are as much or more effective than classroom sessions. Classroom distractions are removed and the student receives a full hour of training. I can monitor facial expressions more closely and help the student to form difficult words more easily.

I specialize in coaching dental professionals who speak Portuguese or Spanish as their first language. I currently have students from Brazil, Spain, Peru, Colombia, Argentina, and Venezuela.

I hold a TESOL – Teaching English as a Second Language certificate, have attended numerous training classes for teaching both English and Accent Reduction and an MBA from Michigan State University,

Great experience! Especially because of the professor Ted Lapekas, he was a mark for me and my husband when it comes down to learning English and proper speaking. Thanks to him and to his teaching method I have learned fast and today I’m able to get my master’s degree, to have conversations and critical thinking. Everybody should experience his teaching skills.
Elisa Veterinarian, Brazil
Ted is a great English teacher. He always prepares his classes by the minute, he is always on time and always makes an effort to keep his class engaging and entertaining. In only a few months he has helped me to improve my English accent a lot. I teach classes in English and his tips have helped me feel more comfortable while I do public speaking. He also helps me to speak clearer and in a way that I can engage my audience more. Besides, we read very interesting scripts: film scripts, lectures, etc. I strongly recommend Ted for anyone who wants to improve his English accent!
FernandoHarvard Professor, Argentina
I have been working with Ted for several weeks now and I could not be more satisfied. He was able to understand the things I had to work on since the very beginning. Every class is interesting and fun! A lot of people recognized my improvements and I love the fact I became more aware of my mistakes and how to correct them. I truly recommend working with Ted!
