Bonus Tip: How To Improve Pronunciation

Hi. How are you doing? I hope I'm not bothering you-- I just want
to give you a new suggestion for improving English.

Are you speaking easily and quickly? Do you feel comfortable
speaking to native speakers? Are you enjoying English? Are you
making new friends?

When you speak, do native speakers understand you?


**A Story About Pronunciation

Jerry is from Taiwan. He moved to Canada when he was 20.
He studied English many years in Taiwan.

When he came to Canada, he had a big problem. No one understood him.
When he said something in English, people looked confused. They
said, "Huh?"... "Excuse me".

Jerry became very upset. He went to an English school, but his
English did not improve.

Finally, he decided to study at home, using deep learning. He
studied just one conversation-- for 6 months.

That's right, he listened to the same conversation (on MP3)
for 6 months!

He didn't just listen. He also paused after every sentence and
copied the speakers' pronunciation. Every day he tried to
improve his pronunciation. Everyday, he listened carefully.

Jerry focused mostly on intonation-- the "music" of English.


**Today, Jerry Sounds Like a Native Speaker

Today, Jerry sounds exactly like a North American (Canadian or
American). His pronunciation is perfect. When people meet him,
they think he is American.


**BONUS RULE: Learn Intonation (Jerry's Secret)

Jerry used two secrets-- deep learning and intonation. He did not
try to learn many lessons every week. He used only one conversation
and he practiced its pronunciation many many times. He learned
that conversation very deeply.

And he learned the "music" of English. He learned when to raise
his tone, and when to drop. He learned when to stretch words, and
when to say them quickly.

Now, Jerry sounds exactly like a native speaker.


**Practice With Effortless English

Use Effortless English to improve your pronunciation. Pause and copy
my pronunciation everyday.

Don't just listen
Don't just answer
Copy my pronunciation too.

Everyday, your pronunciation improves. You improve automatically! People understand you immediately.


You can do it. You speak easily to native speakers. You are
understood by native speakers.
Have a fantastic day. Good luck with your English learning!

Take care,



AJ Hoge
