Methodology is based on English Pronunciation for International Students and Pronunciation Pairs: An Introductory Course for Students of English. We tell you the words and sounds that are difficult to understand.
We group together words which have similar sounds. For example, the sound of "U" in "cup" is found in words that do not have a "U" such as "blood," "cousin," "love."
We then practice those words and their common sound.
Your weekly homework is to notice the words which often lead to a "huh?" and tell us during your next lesson.
Your accent is holding you back.
You can do a better job and advance in the business world by improving your English.

If you are held back by a poor foundation in basic American English sentence structure we will
correct these problems as part of the course.

master the vowel system of American English.
American English has about 18 distinctive vowel sounds (but only 5 written vowels), making the
pronunciation of American English quite a challenge.
