What makes a $100+ Accent Coaching session worth it?

May 06, 2025

If you’re just starting out as an accent coach or considering offering speech improvement services, charging over $100 per session might feel out of reach.

You might be thinking:

  • “I’m not an expert yet.”
  • “Who would even pay that?”
  • “Other teachers charge way less.”

But here’s the truth: Clients pay $100+ every day for speech and communication coaching that delivers real results.

Because this work solves a deeply personal and incredibly important problem: helping people feel confident and clearly understood when they speak.

The Real Impact of High-Value Coaching

Clearer speech and more confident communication changes lives. Your coaching can lead to:

âś… Better job interviews
âś… Stronger client relationships
âś… Promotions, presentations, and more respect at work
âś… Feeling like yourself again in a second language

And when you offer a results-driven service—backed by a solid method, personalized feedback, and a polished experience—your students expect to pay a premium.

Why Undercharging Sends the Wrong Message

If your rates are too low, you may be unintentionally signaling a lack of confidence in your own skills. And if you don’t believe in the value of what you’re offering, why should your students?

People are willing to invest in transformation. Undercharging can raise red flags for motivated students who want serious progress and are actively searching for an expert to help them.

Charging premium rates isn’t about ego—it’s about aligning your price with the value you deliver. It says: I’ve put in the work, I have a plan, and I can help you achieve real, meaningful goals.

What Makes a Session “Worth It”?

You don’t need a huge audience, fancy branding, or a marketing degree. What you do need is:

✔️ A reliable system
✔️ Materials that reflect the quality of your service
✔️ A clear way to communicate the value you offer

Here’s what my own students say make our sessions worth every penny:

  1. A Real Structure and Plan

I always begin with a conversational assessment and use it to map out a personalized improvement plan. My students know from the very first session how their speech will improve and what each step will look like.

I also use a professionally designed Student Practice Portal filled with targeted lessons and high-quality materials. It’s immediately clear to my students that they’re not just paying for time—they’re investing in results.

  1. Commitment and Firm Policies

My students enroll in a 12-week program with a clear attendance policy. I explain that it’s just like a college course—real improvement requires consistency and commitment. And while some are hesitant at first, most end up thanking me. That accountability is part of what makes the transformation possible—and why the experience is worth the investment.

  1. Between-Session Support

Clients who are paying for a premium experience don’t want to feel like they’re on their own in between sessions. I stay in touch with check-in emails, shared Google Docs, and WhatsApp voice notes. This ongoing support builds trust, keeps momentum going, and helps students feel genuinely supported.

It’s something they can’t get from an AI voice app or a budget course. That real-time guidance and personal connection are a big part of what makes this work so impactful—and so valuable.

What This Means for You

If you’re thinking about offering accent and speech improvement training, now is an incredible time to step into this space. You don’t need years of experience. You don’t need to be “the best” or know everything.

What you need is a clear system, strong tools, and the confidence to communicate your value.
