“Katie has helped a number of our folks with a variety of business-communication improvement needs, including such areas as accent modification, leadership communication, and speech-rate reduction. I have always found her to be a consummate professional with a wealth of knowledge and experience in her field.”

“After completing the speech coaching program with Mrs. Schwartz, I felt more comfortable about my pronunciation and speaking skills. Her methods of teaching are customized to every person's needs. I also improved my speaking skills in public speaking, social conversations and business related terms. I recommend Katie Schwartz to anyone who needs to make their pronunciation and speaking skills better”

Katie helped me improve my speaking dramatically in a remarkably efficient amount of time. She was extremely accommodating of my schedule arranging video calls early in the morning and on weekends as required. She immediately recognized my opportunities for improvement from a short video recording of a previous speaking engagement and designed simple and effective exercises to help me. I am a much more effective speaker, trainer, and coach due to Katie's guidance. My only regret is not having hired her years ago. Having become of aware of the significant improvement, I believe that anyone who communicates verbally with others would be mistaken not to engage Katie as a coach.

Katie Schwartz is an excellent speech coach. I worked with her for several months. She was my speech coach as I worked to improve my speech as a TV news reporter in Chattanooga, Tennessee. She helped me to speak more clearly, improve my diction, and speak more conversationally. I would recommend her to anyone else looking to improve their speech! She's GREAT!

In the early days of the start-up of Alstom's new unit in Chattanooga, Katie was instrumental in not only helping many of our inpatriates overcome the complex challenges of quickly learning and understanding American business-speak, but she also surpassed my expectations in working with inpatriates' spouses in learning about American customs and culture that most of us take for granted. Katie was always professional and a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a deeply knowledgeable resource to assist with helping international assignees to quickly get up the cultural learning curve in order to quickly start adding value in a U.S. assignment.
