Hey, what's up?

Stephanie the English coach here from EnglishFullTime .com.

In this video, I want to talk to you about how to change your accent, given that this is something that I did in Spanish.

I want to talk to you about my experience

and what worked for me because I know so many of you do not like how you sound in English.

I actually get DMs and emails about this all the time from people saying that they want to change their accent, reduce their accent, they don't like how they sound etc

and i know it's a real thing i know changing your accent

is a real desire for so many people

and i am not here to shame you for this desire

or tell you that it's wrong because this is exactly what i wanted

when i was learning spanish and i didn't want to sound like a native speaker

because that's what was marketed at me

and that's what i was told i should want not at all i was in high school

when i started learning spanish and i just loved the way the language sounded

and i wanted to honor the language by speaking it as well as possible

so i know there's this whole thing right now with you can't really say

that you want to change your accent because your accent is your identity

and i just don't believe that at the same time

if that's true for you i'm totally okay with

that i made other videos talking about this

that i really recommend you watch one is an honest conversation

about speaking like a native i think that's what it's called

and the other one is the dark side of wanting to

sound like a native speaker anyways go watch those videos i

really talk about this whole issue more in depth in this video though we are past

that this video is for people who really want to change

how they sound in english i wanted to change how i sounded in spanish

and i achieved it so today i want to share with you what worked for me.

Okay, so the first thing that really helped me change my accent in Spanish was I actually went to Argentina.

And don't hate me for making this be number one

because I know a lot of you watching are going to be like, Stephanie, there's no way I can travel to the US to fix my accent.

Don't worry, you don't actually have to travel to another country to work on your accent.

I'm just telling you my story right now.

And I did what I thought I needed to do back then.

And knowing what I know now, I now know that it's totally possible without traveling to another country.

But let me tell you what I learned about going to Argentina.

So I did a study abroad program with my university.

I went to Argentina.

I got super lucky in a way because my family was from Argentina.

So there was a lot of family, friends waiting for me over there.

And I really got to spend a lot of time around native speakers.

And that was key.

For those of you who don't really know my story, my parents immigrated to the US from Argentina, but I did not grow up with the language.

I didn't grow up speaking it.

I didn't grow up understanding it, not even a little bit.

So me going to Argentina was like me trying to reclaim an identity that I felt like I had lost.

I really wanted to get to know the country and the culture that my parents were from.

So anyways, I go to Argentina and all of a sudden, everyone is speaking Spanish basically the same way all around me

and that was the first time something like that had happened

because when I was living in California I had a lot of friends from Mexico

so I was very familiar with Mexican Spanish

but I had teachers in my university classes from Spain from Argentina from Mexico

so my exposure to Spanish was quite varied and so I could understand the different accents more or less.

And I was, I don't know, I think I had a pretty basic to lower intermediate level in Spanish.

I was one of those good students that could do very well in grammar, but I couldn't speak.

And I was so shy.

I was terrified of making mistakes.

So anyways, I had all this exposure to different kinds of Spanish through my classes, through traditional environments,

but I was never immersed in the same accent 24 -7 for a long period of time

and that changed when I went to Argentina

because suddenly I was around people who were all speaking the

same way with the same sounds the same intonation patterns

and the same words and it was amazing

and you know what ended up happening the patterns started jumping

out at me I was like oh my gosh I keep hearing this very specific pattern

when people are asking questions or when people are surprised or

when people are communicating disappointment because a lot of the things

that we think and feel get communicated in tone right

or in intonation patterns and stuff like that it's stuff

that you could never learn from a textbook

and it just started jumping out at me and it made it

so easy for me to imitate and mimic and copy

and shadow right but I wouldn't do shadowing the way a lot of you learn shadowing

and do shadowing I was just listening and obsessively studying how people were speaking.

And I was open to modifying the way that I speak.

What happens to a lot of people

is they're not really trying to change how they speak so

when they listen they're just hearing the message and replying

and moving on i didn't do that i was observing

and i was obsessing

and i was listening for every single detail i was studying the way people would move their mouths

and i would imitate that

and i usually would imitate it quietly like under my breath like you could barely hear me

because i was just trying to train my tongue to get the right positioning

and then I would do it in my head like I would just listen listen I'd practice in my head

and then I would do it very quietly I was never very loud

and I never practiced for hours and hours

and hours I spent a lot of time listening in fact

I ended up spending a few years in Argentina that's another story for another time

but I spent a few years in Argentina

and for the first few years I was so terrified of making mistakes

that I would basically not speak unless I really had to

and that's not good and I had to work on overcoming my confidence issues

and that took years but in the end because I was

so afraid of speaking I got really good at listening

and hearing the little details in the language anyways going back to obsessing

and paying attention and wanting to work on how I sounded I would practice

and I would imitate and it felt really weird in the beginning

and it felt kind of fake it felt like I was pretending to be somebody

100

that I wasn't but I just had to push through that and it started getting easier.

101

Now I just want to quickly compare

102

that to my friend who I studied abroad with

103

because she already spoke Spanish quite fluently

104

and she already had sort of like her accent and she wasn't trying to change her accent.

105

And so today when she speaks Spanish, she sounds exactly the same as you know how she sounded back then.

106

She wasn't trying to modify anything.

107

She liked her accent.

108

She liked the way that she spoke.

109

And it's fine because she's able to communicate just fine.

110

And her accent is part of her identity, I think, you know, because she is Mexican American.

111

So she wasn't trying to change anything.

112

She was just enjoying the new culture and exploring and connecting with people.

113

And she was not afraid to speak.

114

And I admired this so much about her because I could hear when she would make mistakes, for example.

115

And then I would think, oh my gosh, I'd be terrified if I made a mistake like that.

116

That's basic, right?

117

We can be so judgmental of our peers.

118

It's so sad and I love her so much.

119

But anyways, she was over there speaking freely and I was too afraid to speak, even though I had in many ways better grammar.

120

You know what I mean?

121

So anyways, so many stories I could tell about this phase of my life, but those are some of the things that worked for me.

122

And I just want to take a moment to say that I had no feedback during this entire process.

123

I know so many people want feedback all the time and they just feel so

124

insecure in their ability and they want somebody to just confirm that they're on the right path.

125

I totally get it.

126

When I was in Argentina, though, I had no feedback.

127

And when I would try to ask native speakers for help, or I would ask them about a certain sound or whatever, they were not able to help me in any way.

128

In fact, sometimes the explanations that they would give were quite confusing and totally missed the mark, like had nothing to do with what I was asking.

129

So I really had to train my ears.

130

And I think that is one of the biggest secrets.

131

I really worked on training my ears and I would study what was going on and I would practice.

132

And when I would say a sound or a word, I could literally hear if I was saying it the way I was used to hearing it or not.

133

So I'll give you an example because this was really cool.

134

The word estás in Spanish, you hear the Esther estas that's how many spanish speakers around

135

the world pronounce this word estas that's how i learned to pronounce it in school

136

but i could hear in argentina people were not saying estas they were not saying

137

that at all and every time i would try to say

138

that word i could hear i'm like i'm not doing what

139

they're doing they're doing something totally different what's going on

140

and it took me a little while to figure out and

141

so i would try to drill the word and i would go

142

143

and every time i would get to the s i'm like

144

no that's not the sound that's not what they're making that's

145

not what they're doing whatever's going on with this s it's not an s all right

146

and then one day it kind of just clicked

147

and i went eh that's eh that's

148

and i realized that's not an s it's like just air coming out of your mouth eh that's

149

and then you move into the t and rest of it

150

and and it was so cool when i finally got it

151

because it was so hard locking in

152

that sound was probably one of the hardest sounds for me in the entire language

153

but when i got it i was like that's amazing

154

because instantly my accent sounded even more argentinian

155

which is obviously what i was going for and

156

when you lock in a sound in one word when you practice with one word and drill with one word, you can lock in the sound.

157

Once you get the sound, you can then apply it everywhere else that it exists in the language

158

so then i was able to say every other s

159

that comes out like that in that way and it totally helped shape

160

and transform my accent so mastering those little sounds is really important

161

and also when i introduce myself with my name my name is stephanie

162

but in argentina nobody says stephanie they say okay they don't

163

even say stephanie right they literally kind of just jumped to my nickname, Steffi, and they call me Ehtefi.

164

So I couldn't even introduce myself the way people were saying my own name to me.

165

They're like, oh, Ehtefi, Ehtefi.

166

And I'm just like, what are they saying?

167

How do I introduce myself?

168

I want to say my name the way they're saying it

169

because clearly this is how it's said in this part of the world.

170

And so I practiced, I practiced, I practiced, I drilled, I tried, I failed, and then I got it.

171

And then I locked it in and then i was able to use

172

that sound everywhere and now obviously that sound is

173

so natural for me and it's just awesome the other thing

174

that i want to say about accent work is i already

175

mentioned earlier it can feel awkward it's a gradual process

176

and now looking back on my earlier videos

177

and everything i can hear how gradual the process actually was

178

because in those first six months when i was working

179

so hard on locking in the accent i can listen to those videos now

180

and I can hear that I actually sound like I'm really trying you know

181

but it's okay that's part of the process

182

and then over time I got really comfortable with the Argentinian accent

183

but I will say it got to a point where I

184

felt like okay my accent is really good I'm fooling people people think I'm from Argentina not everyone

185

but a lot of people do but I felt like I was performing

186

and I didn't want to feel like I was performing.

187

So then I decided I was going to dial it down a little bit

188

and find a comfortable middle ground between being inspired by an Argentinian accent

189

and then speaking the way my mouth kind of just wants to speak.

190

And that is the accent that I have settled on.

191

So I'm going to show you my accent now in Spanish.

192

By the way, I can imitate other accents in Spanish just for fun, like accents from Spain or Colombia,

193

Mexico, etc. But my way of speaking is definitely inspired by Argentinian Spanish, specifically the porteño accent.

194

So, let me show you real fast.

195

This is a book that I've been reading my son.

196

It's called Ruperto Detective.

197

It's a children's book, okay?

198

I just want to show you, especially for those Spanish speakers who are like, ooh, I want to hear her Spanish.

199

Here we go.

200

Una cuestión de tamaño.

201

Me llamo Ruperto Sapo.

202

Soy detective.

203

Bueno, en realidad hace solo cinco minutos que soy detective.

204

Acabo de poner un cartel que dice, sapo privado.

205

Afuera de la cueva y estoy esperando mi primer cliente.

206

Afuera hace frío.

207

Debido a mi gran inteligencia, me doy cuenta de que eso se debe a una cosa.

208

Es invierno.

209

En invierno siempre hace frío.

210

So that is how I sound in Spanish.

211

It's easier to just read from a book than speak freely at this moment

212

because I've never really spoken freely on social media and it still makes me kind of nervous.

213

So I'll work on it because I think it would be really fun to make more content in Spanish.

214

Anyhow, I am aware that when I speak in Spanish, my voice does go a little bit deeper and I find it fascinating.

215

Many people have pointed it out to me and I hear it too.

216

And I think one of the reasons this might be is because when I was learning Spanish, my husband was one of my role models.

217

He was someone I was around all the time

218

and I would listen to how he spoke Spanish

219

and i would imitate it so i possibly you know grabbed

220

that deeper sounding voice from listening to him i'm not sure

221

anyways i could make my voice a little higher i don't

222

really like it as much i don't think let's try it

223

a little bit actually i've never done this before i'll just read a little bit

224

and i'll try to make my pitch a little bit higher

225

and you tell me which one sounds better Me llamo Ruperto Sapo.

226

Soy detective.

227

Bueno, en realidad hace solo cinco minutos que soy detective.

228

Acabo de poner un cartel que dice, Sapo privado, afuera de la cueva, y estoy esperando mi primer cliente.

229

Afuera hace frío.

230

Debido a mi gran inteligencia, me doy cuenta de que eso se debe a una cosa.

231

Es invierno.

232

En invierno siempre hace frío so there you can hear

233

that my voice is a little bit higher

234

and I don't think it sounds bad

235

so I guess let me know in the comments

236

which one you think sounds better

237

and then I will just speak you know whatever way I like however I'm comfortable

238

but isn't that cool that we can change

239

and manipulate what we do with our mouths right here in

240

this video I'm talking about how to change your accent

241

and the one thing I want you to know and believe is

242

that your mouth is an incredible instrument you can change

243

and shape how sound comes out of it this is exactly

244

what singers do this is exactly what actors do it's 100

245

% possible you just have to know what you're trying to accomplish because

246

that will make the process a whole lot easier anyhow

247

so that's it it was very simple i was around spanish

248

all the time i obsessed over the pronunciation i drilled the things

249

that were hard i practiced and over time my accent changed

250

and it improved i don't know if that's what you were expecting

251

or coming for i hope i did not disappoint with this video please let me know

252

if you have questions about how to change your accent

253

because i do want to make a part two

254

and in the next video i want to give you really specific tips and strategies

255

that you can use to shape how you sound i did

256

it all on my own obviously i was winging it it took me a long time to figure things out

257

and i really believe that we can make it faster

258

and easier for you because i've learned a lot since then like i now know

259

that you don't have to go to a foreign country to pick up the accent that is used there.

260

Anyways, that is it.

261

I hope you enjoyed this video.

262

Please leave me some feedback in the comments.

263

I love reading your comments.

264

I want to know what you think about this.

265

And if you haven't heard me talk about this yet, I just want to let you know

266

that I now run an online community for intermediate to advanced English language learners where we practice

267

and use English every single day.

268

And my goal is to really help you become confident

269

and articulate in English i've been running this community now for almost a year

270

but i haven't really talked about it a lot

271

because i've been testing so many things in the background

272

but it's growing and it's so amazing

273

and i can't wait for you to check it out

274

and i hope you will consider joining us inside i'm sure

275
