Accent Softening

This work is aimed at speakers who have English as a second language and wish to improve clarity and pronunciation. It is also designed for those who want to soften regional accents and acquire a more neutral sound.

The process of this work introduces you to the production of voice and speech and will take you through Standard English sounds using the International Pronunciation Alphabet (IPA). Detailed and practical exercises will help you find the correct placement for vowels and consonants and promote an awareness of English intonation and stress patterns.

Through clear explanation and a new understanding, old habits become new ones. This intensive work requires commitment and regular practice but the rewards are worth it.
