Unlocking American English with Christina | Pronunciation Workshop + Oral Expression

Introduction / Content

Why do I need to practice
my pronunciation and expressions?

First impressions matter. When meeting new people, your speech is the first thing they notice. It is crucial to sound good and speak well. Pronunciation plays a vital role, as even the best words can sound off with a poor accent. Equally important are your expressions, as outdated phrases can undermine even the most perfect accent.
If you wish to communicate confidently and effectively with your foreign colleagues, friends, or classmates, and make spoken English a core competency in your professional life, this course is tailored for you! Through Christina's authentic teaching experiences in New York City, you will discover your English speaking potential from a fresh perspective.

What will I get from the workshop?

During this 8-hour workshop, you will practice the pronunciation of consonant and vowel sounds. You will also learn the elements that give English its unique "music," such as stressing the correct syllables, using natural melodic intonation, and connecting sounds and words seamlessly.
Moreover, you will gain exposure to authentic American expressions commonly used in everyday life scenarios like greetings, parties, shopping, and traveling. The workshop will provide effective and efficient methods to practice pronunciation and learn English. Ultimately, you will gain the confidence to captivate your audience when speaking English.
