TO THE STUDENT The American Accent Program aims to assist ESL speakers in mastering the clear, confident, and natural pronunciation of American English. It emphasizes not only sounds but also developing a new speech identity that enables you to speak with confidence, clarity, and emotion. The program consists of THREE MODULES: AMERICAN SOUND SYSTEM CURRICULUM It is divided into three main modules: American Consonants, American Vowels, and American Intonation. MODULE ONE: American Consonants: Sound-by-Sound ♻️ YOU CAN Understand how to accurately pronounce American consonants, distinguishing the subtle yet significant differences from your native sounds. For example: [T] vs. [D] → “ten” vs. “den” [TR] vs. [WR] → “train” vs. “rain” You will also learn connected speech features such as Elision (dropping sounds), Reductions, and Assimilations to make your English sound natural and fast. 👉 Drill Example: Repeat aloud, first slowly, then faster: “ten–den, ten–den, ten–den” “train–rain, train–rain, train–rain” ♻️ YOU CAN Develop a habitual speaking manner for each consonant through phonetic exercises, training at the beginning, middle, and end of words to master every position. 👉 Drill Example: [P]: “pat – happy – stop” [G]: “go – bigger – bag” ♻️ YOU CAN Practice speaking American English in sentences and paragraphs to sharpen your ear and mouth, helping you detect and correct errors. 👉 Drill Example: “Peter picked a perfect pear.” (focus on [P]) “Dogs dig deep during dinner.” (focus on [D]/[G]) ♻️ YOU CAN Organize all American consonants in your mind. After a few sessions, your pronunciation will feel more controlled, natural, and confident. ♻️ YOU CAN Use your private Learning Management System, which includes audio, video recordings, and 2D Sound Motion Animations demonstrating how each sound is produced. MODULE TWO: American Vowels: Sound-by-Sound ♻️ YOU CAN Identify the most confusing American vowels, which can drastically change meanings. For example: CALLER – COLOR – COLLAR SIT – SET – SAD Using 2D Sound Motion Technology, you'll see tongue and lip positions for each vowel in action. 👉 Drill Example: “Sit – set – sat – sad – sod – saw – sue.” Say these slowly, then faster, ensuring each vowel remains clear and distinct. ♻️ YOU CAN Establish a natural way of speaking American vowels through phonetic exercises at the start, middle, and end of words. 👉 Drill Example: [æ]: “cat – matter – back” [ʌ]: “cup – under – luck” ♻️ YOU CAN Practice vowels within sentences and paragraphs to build natural speech flow and fluency. 👉 Drill Example: “The man had a map in his hand.” (focus on [æ]) “Look at the book you took.” (focus on [ʊ]) ♻️ YOU CAN Organize vowel sounds mentally, train your ear to recognize mistakes, and improve steadily. Regular practice will lead to weekly progress. ♻️ YOU CAN Work within your private Learning Management System, using targeted vowel recordings, listening tests, and 2D animations for each sound. MODULE THREE: American Emphasis & Intonation ♻️ YOU CAN Use your voice tone to practice American rhythm, melody, and stress, including: - Low-Falling tone (certainty) - Low-Rising tone (questions) - Fall-Rise tone (emotions, contrasts) 👉 Drill Example: Say with different tones: “Really.” (falling = certain) “Really?” (rising = question) “Really…” (fall-rise = doubtful) ♻️ YOU CAN Learn how to emphasize content words, focus words, and stressed syllables in words and sentences. 👉 Drill Example: Say the sentence with different focus words: “I never said she stole my money.” (Stress a different word each time to change the meaning.) ♻️ YOU CAN Practice intonation and rhythm through drills, dialogues, and storytelling, which help you speak confidently and naturally. 👉 Drill Example: Read a short story with emotional intonation: Rising for excitement Falling for finality Fall-Rise for suspense ✨ This program is not just about learning sounds. It is about feeling the American rhythm, connecting your emotions to your voice, and speaking with clarity, power, and confidence in every situation—from everyday conversations to professional settings. As a linguist with extensive experience collaborating with universities, schools, and corporations across the globe, I have observed countless classes dedicated to pronunciation training. One common trend I've noticed is that students, particularly when beginning their English learning journey, often focus heavily on grammar and vocabulary, neglecting the crucial aspect of pronunciation. While a firm grasp of grammar and vocabulary is essential, many students continue to carry over the phonetic patterns of their native language when speaking English. This sound substitution not only leads to an accent but also hinders fluency. In response, I developed a unique methodology to accelerate learning and improve pronunciation. The core of this approach involves facial muscle training and a comprehensive understanding of sound production through ADVANCED 2D SOUND MOTION TECHNOLOGY. This technology, paired with a tailored mindset shift, addresses the challenges posed by sounds in American English that may not exist in your native language. Mastering these sounds requires more than mere repetition—it demands a nuanced, practical approach to incorporate them into your speech patterns. By integrating these techniques, you will begin to understand American phonetics (Sound System) effortlessly. The key to mastering the American sound system lies in directly comparing the pronunciation of your native language with that of American English, allowing you to internalize the differences quickly and effectively. Unfortunately, many traditional pronunciation classes fail to use these advanced "language techniques" and instead resort to simple lectures or rote repetition. My approach extends beyond this, offering a more profound, transformative learning experience. 6. COURSE PHILOSOPHY ➻ INDIVIDUAL APPROACH Learning an American accent with a professional linguist requires a profoundly personalized approach. This work is not one-size-fits-all but tailored to your needs, goals, and preferences. I focus on refining your American pronunciation and enhancing your overall fluency in English through a partnership-based, supportive relationship. This individual attention ensures steady progress, rooted in a philosophy centered on personal growth, understanding, and careful guidance throughout your journey. ➻ 2D SOUND MOTION TECHNOLOGY 2D Sound Motion Technology is a groundbreaking method I use to teach American sounds and accents. This technology combines visual and auditory feedback, offering a dynamic, two-dimensional approach to pronunciation. It helps learners understand the intricate sound system of American English, enabling them to produce sounds accurately and with confidence. ➻ INTELLECTUAL INTERACTION Learning the American accent is not just a mechanical process—it is an intellectual one. My teaching approach emphasizes intellectual interaction, where ideas, insights, and strategies are exchanged between teacher and student throughout the learning process. This interaction includes a blend of educational and psychological techniques designed to enhance your understanding of American sounds and Intonation. By integrating these insights into your daily English conversations, you will improve your accent and connect with the underlying principles that shape language learning and human communication. In essence, this course is about more than mastering an accent—it's about fostering a profound, lasting transformation in how you communicate in English. Thanks for the privilege of your time, and I look forward to teaching you. Yours, Prof. Alex., Ph.D.
