TEACHER WHO’S BEEN THROUGH IT
I've been teaching English pronunciation in 5 countries for over 15 years to hundreds of students with varying language backgrounds. That not only gives me a ton of patience, but helps me understand exactly what you’re struggling with and exactly how I can help you improve. And I'm only getting better.
A PROVEN PATH TO SUCCESS
Once we identify which speech patterns need work, I let you know how to modify them. We make this super easy through a unique system where we effectively use the spelling of your native language to help you sound native in American English.
FEEDBACK THAT WORKS
While kids pick up accents easily, adults need clear and thoughtful feedback to improve their pronunciation. I'll show you where your tongue goes, how to think about producing the sound, and everything else you need to master your new accent.
OUR CURRICULUM
WEEK 1: VOWEL SOUNDS
Deep dive into the nuanced vowel sounds of American English and compare them to vowel sounds in your language. Connect with our unique color-coded system that will help you pinpoint where to focus your practice, and get lots of repetition with my personal word lists and curated practice guides for the group
WEEK 2: CONSONANT SOUNDS
Learn to distinguish letters from sounds, and break the habit of reading with the pronunciation of your native language. Discover how aspiration, voicing, and clustering play a role in your overall accent when speaking English
WEEK 3: RHYTHM / LINKING / PROSODY
The most important features of the language deal with patterns of stress, word connection, and intonation. When combined, they allow you to express yourself more naturally, getting out more words per phrase and making better decisions with vocabulary. This shows a level of mastery and allows you to create deeper connections with other native speakers
WEEK 4: REVIEW
We look back on our 'tips of the day' and other lessons around pronunciation and word choice from the month. I'll answer your language questions and always address the biggest concerns we see based on our weekly conversations and feedback videos. A great chance to remove any doubts!
