Voice and Accent Training

This is an awesome course prepared for the non- native speakers of English who have certain problems in pronunciation. English is a global language with different accents as British, American, Australian etc. Being Indian speakers of English, we face some issues in pronunciation as Mother Tongue Influence (MTI), unawareness about English phonetics, transcription, stress, intonation, etc. Many learners do not understand the pronunciation of the native speakers in meetings, conferences, sports, and Hollywood movies but when an Indian speaks with another Indian, they understand each and every word.
As far as Indian speakers are concerned, we have pronunciation problems with some sounds for instance- North Indian speakers have problems with /S/ and /SH/. Furthermore, South Indian speakers have problems with /z/ and /s/ and Maharashtrians face problems with /t/, /d/ and /r/. In addition to this, many of the speakers cannot differentiate between /w/ and /v/, /s/ and /sh/ and /t/ and/d/ etc. Our course includes effective chapters for better pronunciation.
