Additional American Accent Training (Book and Audio CD, 2nd Edition) Information

The second edition of the highly acclaimed American Accent Training, now on 5 audio CDs, is for foreign-born students and business people working, traveling or studying in the United States and Canada. Through extensive intonation and pronunciation exercises, students learn how to speak with a standard American Accent. At the same time, listening comprehension improves dramatically. Supplementary materials included detailed nationality guides for eight languages (Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Spanish, French, German, Russian and Korean), access to a comprehensive website, and referral to a qualified telephone analyst for an individual diagnostic speech analysis. Also included are colored markers for written exercises, and a mirror to practice accurate pronunciation.

 

What Customers Say About American Accent Training (Book and Audio CD, 2nd Edition):

We often say that America is a land of immigrants--a land of accents, you mite also say. As an ESL tutor I dont bother to eliminate accent, but to bend English vowels, with all their execrable inconsistencies, into concord with the accent.Having sed that, I think Ann Cook is a language genius, and greatly admire her work. Like many ESL books the instructions presuppose already intermediate level of ability. The goal should be to create clearer communication, period, which too much accent can impede. I have learned a lot, and hope to distill some of this material into easy chunks for basic-level learners. If a teacher can isolate the drills, and omit the extensive explanations, all the better. I dont think it's necessary, if possible, to eliminate accents.

Priceless. I tried other books but they were so much disappointing compared to this one. It is really the best. Easy to use, very practical and understandble.

But this book has done exactly the opposite.Other than this, the book is really excellent.It was very helpful to take a look at some www.youtube.com lessons and www.UgoEigo.com (how to pronounce the R sound). This is excellent book except one problem, I think you need to study the book from end to the beginning:1- Pronunciation first.2- then Liaisons.3- and then Intonation.Why. because I thing first you have to know to pronounce a word then how to connect it then how to get the correct intonation.

You'll speak with less accent. You can. This book is great. Even if you can't speak well, you'll learn.

A good buy as an American accent training resource.Especially designed for non-Americans.Excellent.I highly recommended it.
