Accent Reduction Classes
Accent Reduction Classes can help you getting rid of a heavy accent.
Even when you speak English well, but you have an accent, some people will not take what you say seriously...
Also, sometimes a heavy accent can distort what you say to the point, that people don't understand what you want to
say.
It's therefore important to perfect your English and to do accent reduction exercises. Some people have great
success with accent reduction classes. But for many, going to a regular class is simply not practical. Be it that
you are working irregular hours, that you are travelling and working far away from home for extended periods of
time: End result is: you need a method to reduce the accent that will work anywhere and anytime.
The method that works really well for most people who speak English as a second language is listening and
working with the Pimsleur audio books. These
give you the chance to carefully listen to a sentence or a word as long as and as many times as you like. By
listening and repeating you will get the English pronunciation right and your accent will slowly disappear.
It's like automatic accent reduction!
An other good method is to listen to English language audio
books, read by different narrators. Paying attention to their way of pronouncing the English words will also
help you improve your accent!
