Awesome Accent

Julian Northbrook

Do You Like the Way Your English Accent Sounds?

How you sound in English matters. Research shows this very clearly. Native speakers judge people with clear, easy to understand accents as proficient in English (even if in reality they're only beginners). On the other hand, they judge people whose accents are hard to understand as being low-level (Even if they're “advanced” on paper).

Awesome Accent is more than an English accent training guide. It's all about speaking with an amazing sounding voice in English. Whether you want to speak English fluently and clearly with your own, native accent, or whether you want to learn a new accent such as a British accent or an American accent – I'll teach you everything you need to know.

Here's What You'll Learn

In Chapter 1 we discuss all the background stuff you need. What is an accent, really? What does your English accent say about you? How important is your accent when learning English as a second language? Do you need to live in a native-English speaking country? ... and a whole lot more. In Chapter 2 we discuss some mindset issues that are probably holding you back. In Chapter 3, the three key elements to sounding awesome. Then, in Chapter 4—the main meat of this book—I'll share with you everything you need to know to learn any accent you want. How to do it, where to start, the most important things to know, and how to put changing your accent on autopilot so it just happens naturally and pretty much by itself over time over time. Then in Chapters 5, 6, 7 and 8 we go far beyond the basics and learn how to develop your voice so you speak with massive confidence in any situation – whether you're using English in business, your an Academic who uses English at conferences or you live in an English speaking country.
