Changes to PRONUNCIATION MASTERS

Nov 3, 2014

Hello Everyone!

Thank you so much for your interest in my Accent Training course.

In order to decrease the confusion surrounding my pronunciation class, increase lesson satisfaction and provide a class for people who are interested in finding the weaknesses in their pronunciation, I have created two new courses.

The first is called The Pronunciation Repairman,

and the second is The United States Accent: Accent Training

The Pronunciation Repairman
In this class, we identify the sounds that you have a difficult time saying. Then, we talk about strategies you can apply outside of the classroom to help you improve those sounds.

Once you have found the weak spots in your pronunciation. I recommend taking my accent training course called the United States Accent: Accent Training Course, to help you begin to fix the problem areas of your pronunciation, and other areas of your accent.

The United States Accent: Accent Training
~*The same course as pronunciation masters before 11/03/2014*~


Mastering “Accent” over “Pronunciation”

 

Many countries all over the world use English as their first language. While the pronunciation varies from nation to nation, accents can also vary within each nation. It is my goal to teach you the most commonly used accent in American films and movies: Western United States Accent.
 

Accent consists of five parts, pronunciation, intonation, liaisons, voice quality and geographic area. This class covers it all as is spoken by speakers in the western United States.

The western United States is the largest dialect region in the United States, and the one with the fewest distinctive phonological features. It also used in many forms of media, making it one of the most easy accent to learn. These facts can both be attributed to the fact that the West is the region most recently settled by English speakers, and so there has not been sufficient time for the region to develop unique phonetic characteristics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_English_regional_phonology)
