PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION
Although you won’t actually “lose your accent in 28 days” this is a good program for people who want to learn to pronounce American English VOWEL & CONSONANT sounds more clearly. The CD-ROM showing the mouth and lip positions for each consonant and vowel sound is an excellent feature and the exercises on the audio CD provide practice in connected speech.
Customers have commented that the book does not contain enough information and that there are not enough lessons on stress and intonation. I would have to agree with that. If you don’t want the CD-ROM showing the mouth and lip positions, Mastering the American Accent is a much better value.

“The CD-ROM contains pronunciation of every consonants and vowels with video demonstrations. It definitely works! Other accent reduction books just show you pictures and descriptions, but you’ll never understand it unless you are studying with native speaker. This book is great when you are studying along, it is like having a private tutor!
CD-ROM and Audio CD are great, however, the workbook contains very little amount of information. This book is basically all about the basic pronunciation. So i recommend you to start with this book and then workout with ‘American Accent Training’. It is another great material, however it has very different purposes and methods. it is more focused on the intonation.”
“On this CD-ROM you will see video clips of the instructor showing you, very close up, what to do with your mouth, jaw, tongue to make the sounds the right way. This is like having your own private tutor right in your home. Very interesting and helpful. The audio CD is also helpful, teaching some important parts of pronunciation like stress.”
