About me
I'm Pauline Paternoga - a speech scientist with a master's degree in Clinical Speech Science, working with people in voice coaching, speech coaching, German training, and communication coaching in Dresden and online. My approach is evidence-based and holistic, aimed at lasting change rather than quick fixes.
I'm fascinated by how deeply voice and speech shape how we're perceived and how we feel about ourselves. When someone discovers they can express themselves more clearly, confidently, and freely, it often transforms their presence and self-assurance. Those are the moments that make this work meaningful.
Who I work with
Whether your voice gives out, you're struggling with throat-clearing, or you simply want to come across more confidently and clearly, I'm here for you personally and at eye level.
Leadership requires persuasion. I help you develop your language, presence, and professional impact, whether in conversation, meetings, or on stage.
Language connects people, but it can be frustrating when you have a lot to say and still are not understood the way you want. I help you express yourself in German with clarity and confidence.
