212. Improve Your Pronunciation in 14 Da...

About this episode

Want to improve your pronunciation fast? Join our 14-day ‘How to Pronounce’ Marathon!

The marathon is going to happen on my INSTAGRAM page @hadar.accentsway where I’ll be sharing a short explanation of how to pronounce tricky and challenging words.

Why working on the pronunciation of single words is so useful:

? It helps you become more aware of the actual sounds in words (and not how you THINK they should sound) ? You develop an awareness of your articulation organs and how to control them ? You invest less energy in pronouncing frequent words ? You build confidence ? You enhance your active vocabulary thanks to the repetitions in the pronunciation practice!

My students and followers love learning how to pronounce tricky words in English. And this is why I decided to have a 14-day marathon to practice just that.

The How-to-Pronounce marathon will start on April 27. I’ll share 3 single words every day and invite you to practice them with me.

Best part? If you share it in your own story or feed, you might win a live 1:1 coaching session with me.?️?️
