- Your English teachers didn’t teach the correct pronunciation of English sounds.
- People tell you that you mumble and don’t move your mouth well.

- Professionally recorded (downloadable) audio exercises with dialogues of common English expressions. Each expression contains the most difficult consonants sounds – the “TH”, “ED” endings and the American T sound. Practice using everyday expressions and correct word stress while practicing these difficult sounds. Practice all three skills at the same time.
- Downloadable PDF text of the audio exercises containing definitions of the new idiomatic expression. For correct and careful practice, the difficult sounds are in different color letters, and the stressed words are underlined.
- Quizzes to test your knowledge of the new idiomatic expressions.
If people can spend a hour or maybe thirty minutes a day, I really think it can make a word of difference. The highest goal a person can achieve – I really believe communication is the key to that. I honestly think taking these courses is not a choice. It should be mandatory.

What our students are saying
These students have developed more self-confidence in their work and personal lives.
“I really like the way this method focuses on small details of pronunciation. But it’s these small details that make a big difference in being understood.”
“I used to try to explain myself to my colleagues. I would try my best, but they just didn’t get it. It was really frustrating. I never thought I could lead a team of people and now I can. I don’t think that would have happened if I hadn’t taken these courses.”
