Do you set your goals high? If so, consider taking an advanced accent reduction program. This is for people who have already completed either a private program of accent reduction or both the basic level and intermediate level groups. If you have already taken the private or group programs, you have improved your pronunciation substantially: probably reducing your pronunciation differences by at least 50%. Take your improvement even further with advanced accent reduction.
An advanced accent reduction program is designed to strengthen your pronunciation mastery in everyday speaking. The emphasis is on consistently using your new pronunciation as you speak in professional and social settings. You will practice conversations and brief talks like the ones you use in your daily communication. Upon completion, you will achieve the following benefits:
- The American English pronunciation you have learned will be more consistent and automatic for you.
- You will speak more clearly and confidently everyday!
- Improved intonation (voice melody) will enhance the impact of your message.
- Expanded knowledge of idiomatic expressions will mark you as a more competent speaker of the English language.
- If you choose, you will improve your ability to organize and enhance the delivery of your business presentations.
The activities both in your training sessions and your self-directed practice will emphasize applying what you know in everyday communication. Activities will include:
- Oral reading of language related to business and professions.
- Dramatic role-playing to emphasize pronunciation in informal speech.
- 1-minute, 3-minute, and 5-minute “talks.”
- Your most frequent professional vocabulary further improved!
- Pronunciation and idiomatic mastery in conversational dialogues.
