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 practice the sounds,
and notice the words which lead to a "huh?" and tell us during your next lesson.
American English has many sounds that are not found on any other continent on Earth, and on any other planet.
The American "R" is not a consonant, and is more like a vowel that once was a consonant.
When you see an American vowel written, you can have no reliable idea of what sound
it is representing.
"U" represents different sounds in the words "cup" "pull" "cushion" "June" "cute".
"I" represents different sounds in the words "I" "bit" "Saudi".
When you hear a sound, you can have no reliable idea of what letter is used to represent the sound.
"hit" "been" "gym" "women" all have the same vowel sound.
So you have two problems in trying to pronounce American English:
Knowing how a word is "supposed to" sound.
Making the sounds.
Your accent is holding you back.
You can do a better job and advance in the business world by improving your English.
You need to work on your pronunciation, accent and grammar.
We will take you systematically through each of the approximately 18 vowel sounds and 26 consonant sounds in American English.
With practice and feedback you will hear the right sounds and be able to imitate them.
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.
When you say "cup", "cap", "cop", do people hear the difference in vowel sounds?
People whose first language is not American English know that it is hard to
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.
