An accent is the carryover of the sounds and rhythm of your first language to your second language. If you are speaking English fluently, then you must learn to use the correct sounds and rhythm of English while speaking English. It can be done and you’re going to learn these skills during this course but it does take practice. Think of it as learning to ride a bike: at first it was very uncomfortable. You didn’t know how to move your feet and hands; you didn’t know how to balance. It took complete concentration to stay on the bike and move forward. You had to practice to make sure you could ride in a straight line. You had to learn how to start, stop, turn, and watch out for cars and light poles so you didn’t run into them. Just because you understood how a bike worked, didn’t mean you knew how to ride one. It took practice for your muscles to become comfortable with the movement. You had to practice the movement over and over again. Eventually, your muscles learned how to move in that new way. Now that you’ve had many hours of experience riding a bike, you are able to ride with comfort and ease. You don’t need to concentrate so much on the small movements of riding a bike, it just comes naturally. This is the same process for learning English pronunciation.
English pronunciation is learning to move your mouth muscles in a new way. It’s going to feel awkward and uncomfortable at first. It will take a lot of concentration in the beginning but the more you practice, the easier and more comfortable it will become. The PronunciationPro program is specially designed to gradually build your skills so by the end of the program, you understand all of the rules of pronunciation, and more importantly, you know how to use them in your speech.
