Good morning, good afternoon and good evening.

Welcome to Smashing English.

Today we are talking about five secrets for a perfect British accent.

Yes, let's get straight into it.

I am so excited about this.

It's going to be great.

So, yes, today we are looking at the modern RP accent.

The modern RP, it sounds a little bit like how I am speaking right now.

La la la.

This is kind of the accent we are talking about.

Modern RP is short for modern received pronunciation.

Famous speakers are people like

Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Hiddleston, Olivia Colman, Emma Watson if you go to the BBC News,

you probably will hear this accent.

You do not have to speak with this accent, but a lot of my students want to learn it.

So we are here to learn that today.

So secret number one.

By the way, hello, everybody.

I can see you.

Hello.

Hello, everybody.

John, Edris, Harper.

Thank you so much for being here from Hong Kong. So exciting.

Where are you watching from?

Let me know.

So the first thing we are going to talk about is you have to move your voice up and down.

So when you want to sound like a natural speaker, when you hear people with an accent and you think, wow, that sounds so natural.

It might be because of this.

So, let me show you something.

Oh, look at this.

So, in modern RP, there's usually a certain rhythm.

There's a certain up and down.

So, yes, we say the words, but it's how we say them.

That's what makes it really special.

So, look at this.

We start up here.

There was, and then we go down once, an old man named John.

So, we're kind of following this figure of eight thing that is really common in modern RP speakers.

There was once an old man named John.

So try that.

Try making that with your hands.

Like this figure of eight.

So we go up with our voice, then down, then up again, then down, then up again, then down.

You don't have to do it religiously, like, oh my gosh, I have to, you know, always be up and down.

But try to have that feeling of rising and falling,

especially when you get to the end of a sentence or the end of a thought.

Make sure you go down after that.

So let's practice this together.

There was once an old man named John.

Notice how we go named John.

Okay, always on the down.

And go higher than you think as well.

So you may think that you're going quite high with your voice, but maybe you're not.

Maybe you're just going, there was once an old man named John.

That's not enough.

We need to go higher than you think.

There was once an old man named John.

I love to go on holiday and see all the things and I would love to visit Spain.

There's this flowy up and down -ness in this accent

and I think that is what makes it sound different to a lot of other accents.

So let's try it one more time.

There was once an old man named John.

Name John.

If you can at least get that ending part, that will make me really happy.

Name John.

Think about going down when you get there.

Well done, well done.

So let's try the sentences.

You ready?

So we're going to try these sentences, but following this up and this down.

I like your new shoes because they look really comfortable.

And it doesn't always perfectly fit the up and the down

because we're not robots and we do want to express ourselves and express the meaning of what we want to say,

but generally there's this up and down.

Let's try the next one.

She goes to work by bus, but sometimes she walks home.

You have to feel free that you can go up with your voice and down with your voice.

If your voice is always at the same pace,

at the same pitch, it won't be very interesting to listen to you know,

if you are giving a presentation at work and everything sounds the same, it doesn't matter what accent you use.

It doesn't matter if you're speaking in this accent or something else.

It just will sound a bit dull.

So we want to make things exciting, particularly if you want this accent.

Let's try the next one.

We had pizza for dinner and watched a film together.

Do you hear that?

Watched a film together.

It kind of la da da da da da.

Yes, this video is being recorded, so it will be available on YouTube afterwards.

Don't worry so yeah it kind of feels like this roller coaster going up and down it's got this lovely flow

let's try the next one can you open the window

because it's quite hot in here can you open the window

because it's quite hot in here there's this da da da da da you know

There's always an up and down.

It is a beautiful day, so let's go for a walk.

100

It is a beautiful day, so let's go for a walk.

101

It is a beautiful day, so let's go for a walk.

102

So whenever you're practicing, whenever you're speaking, just try to lift the pitch of your voice and let it go down towards the end.

103

See if that can be something that feels comfortable for you.

104

I know it may feel a bit strange, but when you are practising on your own, try it.

105

A good thing you can do is try doing a really big siren from bottom to top.

106

just

107

so you can hear how much voice

108

you have you don't have to be limited to this much we have a lot of voice

109

that we can um use lovely jubbly so if you didn't know today i launched my full British accent course.

110

I'm so excited about it.

111

I have spent months and months and months on this course and I'm really, really proud of it.

112

It has everything you need.

113

If you want to speak with this accent, which I'm guessing you do because you are here at this video, so clearly you are interested.

114

This has everything you need.

115

You know, when I make YouTube videos, I can give you little tips and stuff, but this is a full,

116

like beginning to end, you will get everything you need.

117

So let's watch a little preview, everybody.

118

Why don't we watch a preview?

119

And I can't hear it unless I do this.

120

So let's watch a preview.

121

This is from the course and it will lead us into our next tip.

122

So pay attention because this is what we are going to be learning next here we go

123

so what we're going to do to practice this is we're going to try a very long th

124

but we're going to go between the two

125

so this is what i want you to work on you ready so we're going to go like this big breath

126

So we're not stopping, okay?

127

We're literally just going from one to the other.

128

This is great practice to warm those muscles up.

129

Try it with me.

130

Here we go.

131

Do you notice how my face isn't changing?

132

The shape is not changing at all.

133

Try it again.

134

Here hope you're doing this by the way this is excellent warm -up

135

and practice for what we're about to do very good very good

136

so yes we are coming into the th by the way if you buy this course during this live stream,

137

if you buy this course and tell me, I will put you on the wall of amazing learners.

138

So, we've already had some amazing people.

139

Jose!

140

Jose or Jose?

141

Some people are Jose and some people are Jose.

142

So, you tell me, are you a Jose

143

or a Jose you get to go on the wall of amazing learners

144

because he has bought the course thank you so

145

so much I hope you find it useful

146

and I hope you get some amazing things from it

147

so thank you so much

148

if you want to be on the wall of amazing learners

149

click the link in the description get your course tell me

150

and I will put you on the wall

151

we've had some other people who have bought

152

it actually who else have we got who else do we have we've got lots of people here

153

but I don't know their names because I can just see their email addresses

154

so sometimes just an email address I don't know so

155

if you've bought it let me know uh Jose great Jose thank you so much Jose.

156

So get your course now and I will put you on the wall.

157

Okay, so leading on to secret number two, the TH.

158

So as you saw in that clip, we have two different types of TH.

159

We have unvoiced and voiced.

160

Two different types of TH, okay?

161

Oh, Harper says, when I'm 18, I want to buy the course and go to London.

162

That sounds amazing.

163

You don't need to go to London to get the course though, just saying.

164

So yes, so unvoiced, we make it like this.

165

So we put our teeth in, we put our tongue in between our teeth and we go like that.

166

Just a breath, relax your face, relax.

167

okay we need to see your tongue voiced is the same

168

but we add voice to it okay

169

and we need to make a buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz here like

170

if you feel your lips there should be buzzing

171

should sound like a b so in that video we were going from one to the other we were going

172

and that is one of the warm -ups

173

that I give you in the course to help your th become really really strong

174

so let me show you where you might hear those different ths

175

so unvoiced I've put it in blue and voiced I've put it in red

176

so we've got I think those three brothers live together the, near the theatre.

177

Do you hear the difference?

178

So do you hear the difference between think and those?

179

Think those.

180

The those has much more of a buzz in front of it.

181

And when you're practicing th, I want your th to be nice and long.

182

You can make it as long as you like.

183

It's not about sounding good right now

184

when you're practicing it you don't need to worry about sounding good just make it long

185

so practice it like this I think those three brothers live together

186

near the theater and I want you to keep it

187

that long until you feel really confident and then you can shorten them,

188

shorten them, shorten them, but we should really hear the difference between the two.

189

Let's, oh, sports writer says, how to find out whether a TH is voiced or unvoiced.

190

Unfortunately, there's not a really easy, quick thing to do and say, yeah, that is all TH,

191

that is all, that is all voiced, that is all unvoiced.

192

So you do have to just get familiar with words and the more you practice, the more you will pick up.

193

But unfortunately, there's no easy way to know straight away.

194

There are some patterns that you can learn, but it's not as easy as just this and this.

195

Let's try the next one.

196

My mother and father always thank me for helping them.

197

My mother and father always thanked me me for helping them.

198

Let's make that even longer actually.

199

My mother and father always thank me for helping them.

200

Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz with the red ones.

201

Let's try the next one.

202

There's nothing better than a warm bath on a Thursday.

203

so look in front of a mirror if you're

204

if you're looking in a mirror

205

and you can't see your tongue you might not be making it correctly

206

so seeing your tongue is a real good sign

207

that you are saying it probably in the right shape next one

208

they thought the way oh I forgot to highlight

209

that one oh look at me terrible oh I'm terrible

210

there we go let's try this they thought the weather would be warmer than this.

211

There should be buzz.

212

If it doesn't feel like you're making a buzz, it might not be quite right.

213

These things belong to the other three people over there.

214

Okay, so TH just takes time.

215

You have to train your muscle of your tongue.

216

Just like going to the gym you have to train those muscles

217

this is the same thing we are training a muscle

218

so you have to practice again and again and again

219

and in the course I give you plenty of ways to practice

220

but I also

221

if you get the pro course

222

you get a 12 -week practice plan with loads of audio tracks me speaking me giving

223

you things to practice tongue twisters so you don't have to decide what you're going to do to practice.

224

I will do that for you.

225

So I give you the plan so you can just do what it says and you don't need to think really.

226

So yes, if you want to find out more about this course, this full British accent course that I have made,

227

I'm very, very proud of it.

228

The info is in the description.

229

Some frequently asked questions.

230

Does anyone have any questions about this course.

231

Let me know in the chat, do you have any questions at all?

232

I will answer it right now.

233

We've had some more people getting the course.

234

That's so exciting.

235

Luciana, I'm going to put you on the wall of amazing learners.

236

You get to go on here.

237

Where are you?

238

Yes, because Luciana's bought the course.

239

She's great.

240

Thank you so much, Luciana.

241

You are the best.

242

I'm so excited for you to see your accent change

243

and I'm so excited for you to feel confident speaking English with this accent if that's what you want to do.

244

So any other questions do we have?

245

Let me know.

246

Someone says you look pregnant in the photo.

247

Well I was pregnant in the photo and I still am pregnant

248

So I took that photo when I, this photo here, I took this photo when I, I don't look pregnant in that photo.

249

What do you mean?

250

You can't see that I'm pregnant at all.

251

Um, yes, I was about four months pregnant when we took that photo and I'm now nearly six months pregnant.

252

What am I now?

253

I don't even know I don't know I think I'm seven seven months pregnant I think goodness me um

254

so yeah this has been a real um journey to build this

255

while I've been feeling very pregnant um why is the th pronounced differently in some words

256

I don't know I don't know English is really annoying um

257

so yes are there any if you have any questions about the course if you have bought the course,

258

tell me in the chat and I will give you a big thank you

259

and I will put you on the wall of amazing learners if you have bought the course.

260

So tell me, tell me, tell me.

261

There are two different types of course.

262

So you can get the standard course and you get all of the course with 40 video lessons, practice texts, audios.

263

The pro version is the same.

264

You get all of that, but you also get a 12 week practice guide.

265

So you know what to do for 12 weeks.

266

You get 70 practice audio tracks.

267

That took me a long time to make.

268

And also I've got some real lessons in there.

269

So I've got half three 40 minute lessons with my real students, giving them feedback so you can learn with them.

270

someone's got a question.

271

Oh, great.

272

Someone asks, why do we learn RP?

273

Why do we learn?

274

You don't absolutely don't have to.

275

You absolutely don't have to learn this accent.

276

No one has to.

277

But I've taught online now for many years

278

and 80 % of my students want to learn this accent

279

they are interested in it they like how it sounds they like

280

that it's clear they like that it's consistent and they like

281

that it is internationally understandable so if you work internationally

282

or you want to move to a different country everyone can understand it

283

so no one needs to speak with this accent please don't think

284

this is me saying you have to do it but

285

so many people want to um that I thought I would make this course

286

because there seems to be lots of people who want it

287

so that's why i made it um

288

when you buy the course do you have to be online to work on it um yes to access

289

it all exists on an online platform

290

so you would need a wi -fi access to be able to access it um

291

but there are plenty of things that you download

292

that you can do without wi -fi access so like the practice guide

293

and the pdfs they're all downloadable so you can do those whenever you want.

294

So keep asking me your questions if you have any questions.

295

Okay, next tip.

296

Here we go.

297

Secret number three.

298

Oh, no. What does that mean?

299

Oh, no.

300

Goodness me okay oh no this sound oh oh okay oh now

301

that sound so many students struggle with it so many students find

302

that sound really really hard so in oh no they just often get it wrong if they're do this accent.

303

So what you need to do, it's a diphthong.

304

So there are two sounds in it.

305

So it goes, oh, so the first sound is what we call a schwa,

306

which is a completely neutral sound.

307

uh try that with me uh okay completely neutral sound then the second part of the sound goes

308

so if I put those two together watch my mouth okay do you see how relaxed my face was at the beginning

309

oh oh oh the problem is a lot of students get the first part wrong

310

so you see that first part a lot of students go oh

311

or oh that beginning is not quite right

312

so you have to really practice the start

313

and make sure you're not doing some sound that isn't quite right

314

so let's just do that a couple more times

315

so we go oh oh oh oh okay

316

so make sure you start on an uh sound

317

so let's practice some of these words so we've got no so if i slowed it down it would be no

318

No. No. Look at my mouth.

319

No. No. Not now.

320

No.

321

Make sure you relax your face at the beginning

322

next one show grow hello

323

home bone ocean emotion

324

toes nose unknown throne okay so that beginning part of

325

that sound is so so so important

326

if you're going now show grow it sounds like you are the queen

327

or the king and it's too much it's not quite right

328

and if you go now shall grow that sounds like you are Adele

329

that sounds like very London Cockney which is a great accent but if you want this accent, then we have to do this correct.

330

So we've got some more questions about the cause.

331

Let's look at them.

332

So first question we've got, what does RP mean?

333

That is a great question.

334

I keep saying RP, RP, RP.

335

RP is short for received pronunciation.

336

Modern RP is a British English accent that doesn't clearly show which part of England someone comes from.

337

It sounds less formal than traditional RP or heightened RP, which is more associated with royalty.

338

So hello, my name is the Queen and I am very excited to talk to you all here.

339

That is very heightened.

340

No one really speaks like that anymore.

341

So this modern RP is the accent that you probably hear the most if you go on the BBC.

342

So if you listen to Emma Watson, Emily Blunt, Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch, those are kind of your modern RP speakers.

343

So that's what that means.

344

What was the other questions?

345

I've got some more questions here.

346

Is it not common to have a heightened RP accent?

347

Yeah, it's not common at all heightened IP hello I would like to welcome you all here today

348

because it that's very uncommon

349

so don't we don't want to learn I mean maybe you do

350

but not many people speak with that accent how much does it cost

351

so I believe this course is pretty cheap compared to some pronunciation courses

352

I really wanted to keep the price low

353

because we live in a really expensive time money is

354

so tight for everybody I get it it's really hard

355

so I did not want to charge $300 $400

356

so I've tried to make it a price

357

that feels like it's the value of what it is

358

and also the value of the amount of time I've spent on it because I've spent so much time on it.

359

So these are the prices.

360

I believe that's a fair price, but I understand money is really tight.

361

What else have we got?

362

To follow this course, do you have to be fluent and high level of English?

363

I don't think you have to be a high level of English.

364

Um, I, there are subtitles on all the videos, so all the videos have subtitles, so you don't need to,

365

um, you don't need to be really high level.

366

I don't think so.

367

I think having a, okay, if you can understand me now, I think you're fine.

368

um okay fabulous so let's watch another preview clip

369

so we're gonna watch another preview clip this is from another part of the course um

370

and then we're going to carry on so this is from the course

371

if you want to buy it and

372

if you want to go on the wall of amazing learners tell me

373

if you've bought the course and i will put you on there.

374

So here we go.

375

Let's watch this.

376

Here we are.

377

I was born.

378

There's that or again from before.

379

I was born.

380

Let's do this sound. That sound.

381

What is that sound?

382

I know it looks like an a?

383

Do we say it like a?

384

Do we say a about?

385

A about?

386

No. So what do you think?

387

What sound is that?

388

It's actually a schwa.

389

So we don't say about.

390

We don't say about.

391

We say about.

392

Look at how relaxed my mouth is. About.

393

Uh, uh, uh, about.

394

Really try to fight any instinct to go about. About.

395

And then this is the ow sound.

396

Ow.

397

So the whole word goes about. About out.

398

I was born about 10 minutes from here actually.

399

Now you can put a pause there because there's a comma

400

so you can pause it or I'm going to interrupt myself because she's about she.

401

I'm about to talk about something that we are about to talk about so I will tell you instead.

402

I've had another good question about the course on here.

403

If we buy the course today, will we have access to them in a year?

404

Yes, you have lifetime access.

405

When you buy it, you can access it forever. So it's yours.

406

You buy it and it's yours forever.

407

So yes, you can have it as much as you want.

408

Okie dokie, next up, secret number four, link those

409

ours oh actually we've got two more people maria

410

and mandy you're going on the wall of amazing learners

411

because they have the course they have the course look at that look at that wonderful

412

thank you so much maria and mandy you are fantastic i'm so excited for you that you can do the course.

413

Okay, so secret number four.

414

Link those R's.

415

Link those R's.

416

So, the rule.

417

In modern RP, we only pronounce an R if it comes before a vowel sound.

418

I'm going to say that again.

419

We only pronounce an R if it comes before a vowel sound.

420

So, have a look at those words.

421

If there's an X, we're not saying the R.

422

We're not going car, okay?

423

If there is a tick, then we are saying it.

424

Please answer my question.

425

What does RP mean?

426

I did.

427

I answered it.

428

You might missed it.

429

Go back on the video.

430

I answered your question. So, car.

431

Keep your tongue flat.

432

Don't go car.

433

Okay, car.

434

Because it doesn't come before a vowel sound.

435

However, road, that comes before a vowel sound because it comes before O, right?

436

So, we need to say that one.

437

Road.

438

Lovely.

439

Here, that's an interesting one

440

because it looks like it comes before a vowel it looks like it comes before a vowel

441

but we don't pronounce this vowel we don't say heary

442

so it's silent so we don't say it

443

so it's not a vowel sound yes it's written as a vowel

444

but it's not a vowel sound so we don't say that R.

445

We say hear.

446

Keep your tongue flat.

447

This next one, there's a vowel sound after it.

448

There's a vowel sound after it.

449

Red.

450

So we say that R.

451

The next one, there is a vowel sound after it.

452

So we say it.

453

E. Sorry.

454

Sorry.

455

That's a vowel sound.

456

But the last one, it doesn't come before a vowel sound.

457

So keep your tongue flat.

458

Start.

459

Start.

460

OK, that is the general rule of R in modern RP.

461

However, however, when we are linking, which we always want to link because sounding natural,

462

we need to link words together so when we are linking

463

if a word ends in an r

464

and the next word starts with a vowel sound we pronounce the r

465

so we forget about that rule

466

so look here far on its own we wouldn't pronounce the r

467

so on its own we say far however when we're linking if the next word starts with a vowel we say it.

468

So we say far away.

469

Far away.

470

So it's like you put the R at the beginning of the next word.

471

Raway.

472

Far away.

473

Far away.

474

Raway.

475

Okay.

476

Next one.

477

Mother is.

478

Separately.

479

Linking them mother is

480

so it's like you're saying riz the second word is riz

481

mother is mother is the next one car alarm car alarm put

482

that r in front of the second word car alarm car alarm

483

do you hear that so let's look at a few more car engine four apples here

484

and now war and peace never again father -in -law

485

so the key is you want to make it so that the r gets attached to the next word.

486

So it's like you're saying rengin,

487

rapples, rand, rand, ruggen, rin.

488

So it's like you're adding the r to the next word.

489

So let's do these one more time, say them with me.

490

Car engine.

491

Four apples.

492

Here and now.

493

War and peace.

494

Never again.

495

father -in -law.

496

Okay, that is going to make you sound so natural, though that is like beautiful.

497

If you can do that, it's going to sound great.

498

So what do you get in this course?

499

This is my brand new

500

Speak With A British Accent Modern RP course.

501

It just launched.

502

I'm so proud of it.

503

I can't wait for you to have it.

504

So you will master every vowel and consonant.

505

You will learn exactly what to do with your mouth, where to put your tongue, your teeth.

506

You will link words smoothly, just like we were just doing, linking, putting things together.

507

We will be connecting your words.

508

We'll be talking about the rhythm.

509

So stress, intonation, connected speech.

510

Do I stress this word?

511

Do I stress that word?

512

And then we will be working through so many dialogues,

513

texts, things, you know, real life text to put it into practice and put it all together.

514

If you have bought the course, tell me in the chat.

515

If you have bought it, let me know and I will put you on the wall of amazing learners.

516

Let's add some names to this, actually.

517

Who else have we got?

518

Oh, someone's just bought it.

519

Jassy, I'm going to go for.

520

Let's go for it.

521

I think that's your name amazing thank you

522

so much Jassy you're the best you are the best thank you

523

so much because you're not only getting an amazing course

524

but you are supporting me and my maternity leave

525

which I am very very grateful for because I don't have a real job so I don't have maternity leave

526

So thank you so much.

527

And we've had someone else.

528

Who is this?

529

Oh, I don't know who that name is.

530

James.

531

I know James.

532

Lovely.

533

Look at that.

534

That wall is getting pretty full, but I can still put lots more names on there.

535

Thank you so much for buying the course.

536

You're the best.

537

Yes.

538

Let me know if you have any more questions about my course.

539

Let me know if you've bought it.

540

I love you all.

541

You're great.

542

Okay, let's watch one more.

543

Oh no, this isn't a preview clip.

544

So I'm just going to show you a little bit of what the course looks like.

545

So you can see here, this is kind of near the beginning of the course where we're talking about the vowels and the shapes and everything.

546

You can see along here, all of the lessons on the side.

547

Then there's lots of drills in there with close -up of my mouth

548

so you can really see what my mouth is doing for all of the sounds

549

and you can very easily just jump in

550

and just use those to practice as often as you want um

551

so they're kind of there for your daily practice um

552

and yes we do a lot of working through texts

553

and picking out everything oh should we say this like this how do we link

554

that together there's so much in there um

555

and we've got some some things for you to download as well

556

so you've got lots of practice passages with audios

557

there's just a lot in there I just tried to include as much as I could um

558

because I really wanted to put all of my knowledge into one course and there it is.

559

So, info is in the description.

560

Okay, it's time for our final secret.

561

The final secret.

562

So, long and short.

563

Long and short.

564

Some vowel sounds are short and some are long.

565

We need to hear that there's a difference.

566

So, in front of us, we have monophthongs, which are vowel sounds with one sound.

567

Some of them are short.

568

So these are short.

569

So we say e, a, u, u, u, i, o.

570

Short.

571

If I say the words, you've got pen, map, sun, book, water, fish, pot.

572

Short sounds.

573

We just make them and then we're done.

574

However, we also have long ones.

575

So, do you see that in the symbols, some of them have two dots?

576

So, some of them have two dots.

577

If a symbol has two dots, it means it's a long vowel sound.

578

So, we go or, ah, ee, oo, uh, and they just sound longer.

579

They just need to have a little bit more length to them.

580

So we would say horse, star, tree, moon.

581

turn.

582

Can you hear the difference?

583

If I say all of the vowels together, see if you can hear the difference between the short ones and the long ones.

584

So we've got pen, map, sun, book, water, fish, pot,

585

horse, star, tree, moon, turn.

586

They just have that little bit more length to them

587

if you want a quick way of remembering the long sounds you can use this sentence

588

so this sentence has all of the long sounds in it a star horse turns to see the moon

589

now those are the long vowel sounds so

590

if you want to have a quick easy way of remembering how to do it or what the long sounds are?

591

It's that.

592

So let's try that again.

593

A star horse turns to see the moon.

594

Lovely.

595

So when you've got a sentence like this, the underlined ones, those are the long sounds.

596

So they should just sound a little bit different to everything else.

597

So if I read these sentences, listen to how I do the sounds that are underlined.

598

Those are the long sounds.

599

So we've got, let me tell you a story about a nurse who travelled the world.

600

They're just a little bit longer.

601

Let me tell you a story about a nurse who travelled the world.

602

Just need to have that little bit more length.

603

Next one.

604

Don't listen to her.

605

She can't do anything.

606

Now, these are the interesting ones because technically that is a long sound.

607

It's this one.

608

And do is also a long sound.

609

This one.

610

However, when they are unimportant words like pronouns or, you know, like little unimportant words,

611

we don't make them as long.

612

So we do it for words like story, world, nurse, because they are important words.

613

But if it's like a preposition or a pronoun, we don't make them as long.

614

However, this one, I feel awful about this.

615

Awful.

616

That's this sound, horse awful I feel awful

617

so let's just make sure we hear a nice difference between the short vowel sounds

618

and the long ones but we go into lots of detail with this in my course

619

so if you are watching this

620

and you just think wow

621

I want to learn more about this I want to have this accent go to the description

622

and you can find out anything you want to know about the course

623

any more questions anyone else who's bought it

624

if we're going to add anyone else to the wall of amazing learners before

625

we go can anyone else make it onto this wall are you going to buy the course let's see

626

if anyone's bought it on email let's see

627

and once you have it once you buy it you have it forever

628

so there's no expiration you don't have to worry about losing the course once

629

you get it you get it forever and you have access forever and ever.

630

You can take it at your own pace.

631

Yeah, I'm super, super proud of it.

632

It took me a long time to make, and I can't believe it's out, and people can use it,

633

and people can, yeah, people can work on their accent with it.

634

That just sounds crazy to me, and I'm very, very very excited um to hear what you think

635

and hear the feedback and hear the um the progression you know I would love it

636

if you could record your voice at the beginning of the course and then um

637

638

639

Grave a sua voz e compare com o original, prestando atenção a palavras como accent, buzz, preview.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
