These training modules will guide you through the essential factors of speaking English fluently. Topics include:
Advanced Pronunciation - Learn systems that will help you understand how to produce consonant and vowel sounds accurately, as well as hear the differences between similar pairs of sounds. We will also guide you through the process of using correct pronunciation in your daily life, not just in the classroom.
Rate & Volume - Speaking too quickly or too quietly can make both native and non-native speakers very difficult to understand. This module includes information on correct breathing to support appropriate volume, and how to use pauses effectively to control rate.
Intonation & Emotion - An incredible amount of information is carried in the intonation, or the melody of spoken English. If you speak with flat intonation, people may incorrectly interpret your mood as bored or even upset; if you speak with too much intonation, you may sound overly excited or like you are trying to be funny. Of course, correct intonation depends on what you are actually trying to say. This module will teach you how to be flexible, so you can appropriately speak about any topic.
