Title / 主题

Join Christina's American English Adventure | Pronunciation Workshop + Oral Expression

Introduction / 内容介绍

Why is it important to practice
pronunciation and expressions?

First impressions matter. When people meet you, the first thing they notice is how you speak. It is crucial to sound good and speak well. The first part of this is pronunciation. Even the best vocabulary can sound unclear due to a poor accent. The second part is expressions. Even with a perfect accent, outdated expressions won't make you stand out.
第一印象很重要。人们在见到你时最先注意到的是你的讲话方式。听起来好、说得好非常重要。首先是发音。即使是最好的词汇因为口音不好也可能听不清楚。其次是表达方式。如果一开口就是过时的用语，即使是再好的发音也无法让你脱颖而出。
If you want to communicate more confidently with your foreign colleagues, friends, or classmates, and make your spoken language a core competency for your job, then this is the perfect course for you! Through the instructor's authentic teaching and living experience in New York City, you will discover your English speaking potential from a new perspective.
