• Neutralise your accent within 1-3 months
• Make your American English clear and easy to understand
• Become a better communicator and public speaker

The app has 10% theory and 90% effective practical exercises from Part One of the book Get Rid of your Accent Part One and Two, General American Accent Training Manual, ISBN 9780955330087. It contains 42 audio lessons. Where appropriate, a lesson begins with an illustrated description of the speech organ position, followed by practical exercises. The exercises consist of words, amusing sentences, tongue twisters, and verses, taken from literature and conversational English.

App Functionality

All exercises are recorded on audio tracks that illustrate the model pronunciation. Students can play audio tracks, record themselves, and compare their pronunciation with the model. The app is very easy to use. Simply touch the screen to play audio tracks, record yourself, and compare your pronunciation with the model.
