Clear, confident spoken English
when it matters most.
In your own language, people feel your ideas, your experience, your leadership. But the moment you switch to English, you don’t always sound as sharp, natural, or “like yourself” as you really are.
Latour helps you close that gap, so your spoken English finally reflects your real clarity, confidence, and competence - in meetings, calls, events, and everyday conversations.
Typical clients are founders and executives who already work in English, or will soon in more visible situations. The key isn’t more classes. It’s matching your speaking to your level of expertise.
When the way you sound has to match the weight of your ideas - in board meetings, investor calls, client meetings, and public conversations.
This isn’t school. It’s custom spoken-language coaching for people who already perform at a high level - and want their English to do the same.
Your English is “good” - but it doesn’t sound like you
You can read complex reports, write clear emails, and follow meetings. But when you speak, something feels off: you don’t sound as relaxed, fast, or impactful as in your native language.
This isn’t a vocabulary or grammar problem. The real issue is how you’re using English: trying to express complex ideas with the rhythm, intonation, and mouth movements of another language.
That mismatch forces you to work harder to speak - and forces your listener to work harder to follow. Over time, that extra effort quietly limits impact, trust, and opportunities.
You might recognize yourself here:
- People ask “Sorry?” or pause after your first sentence.
- You can follow 1:1 conversations, but fast group discussions in English are exhausting.
- Your brain feels “full” when you speak - you need time to warm up in English.
- Speaking English feels tiring, especially at the end of long days or trips.
Many clients arrive saying: “My English is okay… but it doesn’t feel like me. People don’t see how sharp I am in my own language.”
Most professionals stay stuck on the same plateau for years without knowing exactly why, or how to change it.
We find the specific patterns that are blocking you from sounding and feeling like a high-level, confident English speaker,
and we train them in a targeted order - starting with the highest-impact elements for you.
You keep what already works, and focus your time on the small changes that create the biggest difference in real life.
Leaders who already work in English - and want more
If you already use English at work - or you know you’ll soon need it for more public, visible situations (podcasts, conferences, investor meetings, international expansion) - and you feel your spoken presence could be sharper, you’re in the right place.
Scaling beyond your home market
For founders pitching globally, raising in English, or leading international teams - where clarity, presence, and trust directly influence capital and growth.
Leading in US and global environments
For VPs, directors, and C-level leaders who present to boards, clients, and teams in English, and want their voice to project the same seniority, authority, and ease as their role.
High-trust, high-context work
For consultants, lawyers, physicians, and senior specialists whose impact depends on nuance, precision, and human connection - not just “getting the message across.”
Hear the transformation
Louise was in charge of a large bank’s French division. When she was promoted to lead the European arm,
her heavily-accented English was suddenly in the spotlight - on calls, in meetings, and in front of senior stakeholders.
She already had the job. But the way she sounded in English didn’t reflect her real level - and it was quietly
reflecting poorly on her and the company.
In this before/after audio, you’ll hear what changes when you stop guessing and start training the right patterns with focus and clarity.
She didn’t “lose” her accent. She gained control, fluency, and confidence - so people could finally focus on her decisions, not her English.

Three pillars that define global fluency
The E.A.R. framework evaluates your spoken English the same way native fluency is experienced: how it feels, how it sounds, and how it is perceived.
When speaking feels effortless, you stop translating, your mind relaxes, and you start thinking directly in English - with presence, flow, and clarity. Our work reduces the “mental load” so English costs you less energy and gives you more impact.
Accent is about patterns, not perfection. We adjust the mechanics - sounds, stress, rhythm, and linking - so you are easy to understand, credible, and natural from the first seconds of a conversation, even with native speakers.
When you sound and feel good in English, you express yourself like someone who knows what they’re doing. You’re perceived as skilled, intelligent, and adaptable - not a junior employee. People focus on your ideas, leadership, and presence, not your English. You sound like the expert you truly are.
Spoken English communication coaching for leaders
The blend of executive coaching, applied phonetics, and high-performance training. You don’t need to start from zero - you need to change the right 20% that unlocks the rest.
We fix the patterns that matter most
Together we identify the sounds, rhythms, and habits that create most of the friction when you speak - then we train them in a clear order. You don’t re-learn all of English. You target the few elements that change how you sound everywhere: in meetings, calls, small talk, and on stage.
Sound confident in any situation
AI can polish your emails. It can’t replace how you show up live - on Zoom, on stage, in negotiation, or over dinner. We train your voice, your timing, and your delivery in the real situations where trust, leadership, and influence are built.
A system you can use for life
You already perform at a high level. Coaching is built as a partnership: clear goals, measurable progress, and honest feedback - using a methodology Ben has refined and stress-tested himself in six languages.

What clients say after working with us
Words from executives, founders, and professionals who decided their English should match their expertise.
Within the first meeting I had already learned more than in my 20+ years learning English. Ben helped me sound fluent and confident on stage while my company was going global.
Results from the first days thanks to a deep method based on phonetics. On the human side, Ben is funny, supportive, and a real source of energy. My confidence leading an international team has increased a lot.
After years working in English, I still struggled to express 100% of my thoughts. The methodology and tools helped me become far more fluent and impactful in complex discussions.
