Meet Your Expert Coach: Hessed Honstein

Hi, I’m Hessed—and I’m here to help you speak with clarity, confidence, and undeniable presence.

With over 20 years of experience in Media, Communications, and Corporate Talent Strategy, I’ve dedicated my career to helping professionals find their voice—and use it to unlock new opportunities.

As a former Talent Acquisition and Recruitment Leader in Corporate America, I’ve been the first line of contact in the hiring process for thousands of candidates. I wasn’t just part of the hiring journey—I was the gatekeeper. It was my decision whether a candidate moved forward to the next round or not. That means I know exactly what separates someone who gets a second interview from someone who gets passed over. I’ve recruited for everything from high-volume roles to senior executive positions, partnering closely with business leaders, HR teams, and C-level stakeholders across the U.S.,—giving me unique insight into what top companies expect from professional communication in today’s competitive job market.

But that’s only part of the story.

I also bring a dynamic media background to my coaching. As a voice-over artist, on-camera talent, TV host and spokesperson, I’ve worked with major brands like Walmart, Mercedes-Benz, Huggies, United Airlines, Offshore Technology Conference, Malibu Rum, Macy’s and many more. I’ve hosted red carpet events, interviewed Grammy-winning celebrities, and led national campaigns—developing powerful presence on screen, radio and on stage.

To deepen my impact, I also hold a certification in English Pronunciation through the Institute of Language and Phonology, giving me the tools to teach accent reduction with science-backed methods and proven results.

Whether you're leading a global team, pitching your business, preparing for the job market, or stepping into a leadership role, I’ll help you speak clearly and confidently—and give you the tools to elevate your resume, master your interview skills, and make a lasting impression. With the right strategy and support, you'll move forward in the hiring process, land bigger opportunities, and show up as the powerful communicator you were meant to be.

Working with Hessed on accent reduction was a transformative experience. As someone with a Middle Eastern accent, I often felt self-conscious about how I was perceived in professional settings. Hessed created a supportive and non-judgmental environment, helping me improve my pronunciation, intonation, and overall clarity. The improvement was noticeable—my boss and colleagues commented on the positive change, and I was soon given additional responsibilities that involved more client-facing communication. Thanks to Hessed’s guidance, I now speak with greater confidence and feel more empowered in my professional role.

I took Hessed’s Accent Reduction course as well as the Interview & Resume course. Hessed is not a simple accent reduction teacher; she has the pedagogy and the techniques to help you correct and perfect your pronunciation. First of all, she diagnoses your recurring mispronouncing words, then takes you through different oral situations to perfect your articulation and enunciation, and makes you sound more like a native speaker. Her classes while being educational are also fun and entertaining.

Hessed’s background in recruiting gives her a deep understanding of the communication skills needed to excel in interviews and increase your chances of getting hired.
