The second edition of the highly acclaimed American Accent Training, is for
foreign-born students and business people working, traveling or studying in
the United States and Canada. Through extensive intonation and pronunciation
exercises, students learn how to speak with a standard American Accent.
At the same time, listening comprehension improves dramatically. Supplementary
materials included detailed nationality guides for eight languages (Chinese,
Japanese, Indian, Spanish, French, German, Russian and Korean), access to
a comprehensive website, and referral to a qualified telephone analyst for an
individual diagnostic speech analysis. Also included are colored markers for
written exercises, and a mirror to practice accurate pronunciation.
Amazon Review - "This is a fantastic book. HIGHLY recommended. It even moved
me to write my first review on Amazon. I had no idea that improving my accent
would be so much fun and so interesting. The main strengh of the book is in
the system. The first one third of the course is devoted to the intonation
training, which builds a good foundation for the individual sound training
that is to come later. Instead of focusing on particular sounds from
the beginning, you learn to think large and change your actual speech flow."
