Accent and Confidence | English for Global Professionals

In this podcast episode, Curtis Davies and Amy Whitney from RealEnglishConversations.com delve into the topic of accent and pronunciation in English.

 

They challenge the common belief that achieving a native-like accent is necessary for effective communication. Instead, they emphasize the importance of speaking with clarity, being understood, and understanding others.

 

Curtis and Amy discuss how accent is tied to identity and nationality, highlighting that having a unique accent is not something to be ashamed of but rather a reflection of one's background.

 

They offer insights into identifying areas for improvement in pronunciation and provide practical tips for enhancing accent, tone, intonation, and rhythm.

 

Through engaging discussions and exercises, you will gain a new perspective on accent and learn strategies to communicate confidently and effectively in English.
