What Students Say
“I used to hesitate speaking in meetings because I wasn’t always understood the first time. After working with Jeff, my pronunciation became much clearer—and I don’t get asked to repeat myself nearly as often.”
- Taeko W.
Japanese professional
“I remember Jeff teaching at UCI and thinking he was a great teacher. He is kind, honest, and engaging.”
- Koichi N.
Former student, UCI
“He truly cares about each of his students and always takes the time to understand them.”
- Chie S.
Former student, Soka University of America
“I didn’t realize how small sound differences were affecting clarity. After learning distinctions like ‘behind’ and ‘because,’ my pronunciation became much easier for others to understand.”
- Eiken
Former student, Soka University of America”
You’ve studied English for years, but in meetings, something still breaks down.
❌
You hear the word… but you’re not fully sure what it was
You catch something close—
but not exact.
So you hesitate.
Or guess.
❌
You’ve practiced for years—but you still get asked to repeat yourself.
Apps. Classes. Listening.
But in real conversations, nothing changes.
❌
You say something.
They pause…
“Sorry?”
You repeat. Maybe rephrase.
Eventually, you just speak less.
Here's what actually fixes it:
✅
Retrain Your Ear First
Before you change how you speak,
you change how you hear.
So you finally catch real sound differences.
✅
Repair the Patterns that Break Clarity
Focus only on the sounds that cause breakdowns.
No wasted drills.
✅
Be Understood the First Time
When perception improves,
your speech becomes clearer—automatically.
Fix the Source. Clarity Follows.
Inside the program, we fix four core breakdowns:
Why This Works (When Other Methods Don't)
Most pronunciation training focuses on speaking.
But:
You don’t speak what you see.
You speak what you hear.
If your brain can’t clearly hear the difference between sounds, you won’t produce them clearly either.
That’s why:
Repeating doesn’t fix it
Conversation practice plateaus
“Just speak more” stops working
The real bottleneck is how you hear English.
That’s what this program fixes first.
When perception changes,
clear speech follows.
Katakana Breaker
Course Curriculum
A Structured 14-Day System
This is not passive learning.
Each day, you retrain how you hear English—then apply it in speech.
What you’ll actually do each day:
Listen to close sound contrasts (e.g., pull / pool, light / right)
Train your ear to hear the difference clearly
Rebuild the sound with guided examples
Use it immediately in short speaking drills
Each session takes 20–30 minutes and builds on the last.
How the 14 days are structured
Days 1–7 — Vowel System Reset
You start hearing sound differences your brain has been collapsing.
Days 8–14 — Consonant Clarity
You fix endings, clusters, and contrasts that cause breakdowns in real speech.
By the end of 14 days:
You hear English more precisely
You stop guessing what you heard
You reduce the need to repeat yourself
You’re understood more easily in meetings
Reset You Ear
Start hearing sound differences clearly—so you stop copying distortions.
Rebuild the Right Patterns
Fix vowels, then consonants—so your speech improves step by step.
Use It in Real Conversations
Apply it to short, work-relevant phrases—so you’re understood immediately.

What's Included In Katakana Breaker
Meet Your Instructor
Hi. My name's Jeff. I’ve spent over 18 years teaching English and studying how sound systems shape the way we speak.
My work focuses on a key problem:
why capable speakers still get misunderstood—and how to fix it efficiently.
I’ve studied Japanese formally, lived in Japan, and use Japanese daily.
That experience shaped how this system was built:
Not around generic pronunciation advice—
but around how Japanese sound patterns affect real English speech.
This isn’t about speaking more or trying harder.
It’s about fixing the patterns that cause breakdowns.
That’s what Katakana Breaker does.

Frequently Asked Questions
What level is this for?
For intermediate to advanced English speakers who communicate well—but still get asked to repeat themselves.
Not for beginners.
How much time per day?
20–30 minutes.
Short, focused sessions that build over time.
Do I have to complete the 14 days in a row?
No. You can pause and continue anytime.
Consistency helps—but you’re not locked into a strict schedule.
When does the program start?
The next cohort begins on May 1, 2026.
You’ll get lifetime access to all lessons and updates.
Can't I learn this on Youtube?
You can find tips—but not a structured system.
This program focuses on the specific sound patterns that cause real breakdowns.
Can’t I just use a pronunciation app?
Apps help with practice—but they don’t fix the underlying patterns.
If your perception is off, repetition won’t solve it.
This system retrains how you hear first.
Will this remove my accent?
No—and it doesn’t need to.
The goal is clarity.
As your sound patterns improve, your speech becomes clearer and more natural.
Do I need anything before starting?
No special tools.
You just need basic English fluency and 20–30 minutes per day.
Should I take another first?
No.
If pronunciation is the issue, this is the place to start.
