The one tip that will help you change your accent in English and save you 2 months practise!!!
If you have trouble mimicking the trainer in our accent training program, or if you have difficulty pronouncing a particular vowel, word or phrase in English, try this technique:-
-Choose the word or words you need to change to reduce your accent.
-Say it the usual way you say it -the ‘old way’, and then immediately copy the trainer saying it.
-Continue to do this till you get closer and closer to the way the trainer is saying it- your ‘new way.’
When you say it the old way, and then the new way immediately after that, you will notice that you can’t move your mouth
in the same way otherwise, you will be saying it the old way again!!
This makes you change the way you move your mouth. You may have to do it a few times in a row and get closer each time.
It sounds obvious, but try it ! You will be surprised how quickly you can improve your production of a new sound, tricky word or you can even do this to practice a short phrase.
Now you can spend less time practising your accent and more time doing the things you love!
Best wishes,
