Welcome to our monthly online accent modification class! This event is a great way to learn how to communicate more effectively and efficiently speaking American English. This is one of many classes in which you'll learn the correct pronunciation of all the sounds (and sound variations) and intonation patterns (melody) of American English.

This is our first class in which we'll begin to work on the consonant sounds of American English - the stop consonants. These are VERY commonly used sounds (/p, b, t, d, k, and g/), some of which can be very difficult for non-native English speakers to pronounce correctly (substitution of the /v/ for the /b/ sound, devoicing at the end of words, etc.).

We'll talk about how these sounds can be represented in spelling, what you need to do to make the sounds (how open your mouth should be, what you need to do with your lips, and what you need to do with your tongue) and we'll practice these sounds in words and some sentences.

I'll provide as much 1:1 training as I can during the class. I'll also provide you with practice materials you can use at home and I'll teach you the best way to practice on your own to improve.

Thanks and hope to see you soon!
