Good English pronunciation is the key to making your English understandable and pleasant to listen to.
As a world expert in accent and pronunciation, students from all over the world come to me to sound better in their spoken English. Some of the students in my Online English Pronunciation Lessons already know the language quite fluently. However, your knowledge of English will not help you if you do not say your words clearly and correctly.
The good news is this: Great English pronunciation is easy to learn. Bad habits can be easily fixed. In your Online English Pronunciation Lessons, we take your English pronunciation problems one at a time. Your friends and work colleagues will be amazed.
As a teacher, my happiest day is when students tell me, “Everyone at work tells me I am much easier to understand than I was before!”
(Here is one secret of better English Pronunciation: Speak more slowly! Most students speak much too fast. Slow down, and your English pronunciation will immediately improve.)
COURSE LEVELS AND STRUCTURE
Sounds and Phonetics
When it comes to sounds and phonetics, I can give you two pieces of good news.
First, there is no sound that is “difficult” to make. All speech is simply air, which is shaped through the throat and the mouth. That’s all it is! You can shape that air any way you want. It is not difficult.
Speakers of Japanese, Korean and some other Asian languages have trouble with the “R” and “L” sounds. This is an EASY (!!) problem to fix. I have a unique method of fixing the “R” and “L” problem in 5 minutes! I promise!
French speakers often have trouble with the “th” sound in English. That is even easier. My Online English Pronunciation Lessons fixe that problem in 3 minutes. That is also a promise!
Now – about “phonetics”: I do not like the word “phonetics.” It makes something easy sound difficult – and boring!
To improve your English pronunciation, you do not need long, boring phonetic exercises. What you need is to train your ear! Your ear is your best teacher – always, always, always. I will teach you how to listen and learn from everyone you meet.
In my personalized Online English Pronunciation Classes, you will see your English Pronunciation problems disappear. You – and others – will hear your English Pronunciation improve to the next level.
Practice and Feedback
Yes – practice and feedback! These are the key to my Online English Pronunciation Lessons.
They are also one reason why all the Online English Classes (ESL Classes) at LearnEnglish-NY are personalized. My philosophy is this: I don’t only teach English. I teach YOU! Every student is different, so every lesson plan is different.
TWO SUCCESS STORIES
“R and L – those used to be so difficult for me. Now they are no problem. Learning the difference was very, very easy!” – Aiko (Japan)
“Like many people in India, I have been speaking English my whole life. It is almost a native language to me. However, people had trouble understanding me, especially on the phone. Christopher’s Online English Pronunciation Lessons showed me my pronunciation problems. I also learned that I was speaking much too fast. Kindly and expertly, Christopher helped me break some bad habits. Now I can talk to anyone, any time. People find me easy to understand.” – Rajesh (India)
