Title / 主题

Explore American English with Christina | Pronunciation Workshop + Oral Expression

Introduction / 内容介绍

Why Should You Practice Pronunciation and Expression?

First impressions matter. Your speech is the initial impression people have of you. It's crucial to sound good and speak well. Pronunciation plays a key role – even the best words can sound off with a poor accent. Additionally, expressions are essential – outdated phrases can hinder even a perfect accent. If you aim to communicate confidently with foreign colleagues, friends, or classmates, and make your spoken English a competitive advantage in your career, this workshop is tailored for you! Benefit from the instructor's authentic teaching experience in New York City to enhance your English speaking skills from a fresh perspective.

What Will You Gain from the Workshop?

Throughout this 8-hour workshop, you'll practice vowel and consonant sounds, learn the rhythmic elements that give English its unique "music," stress syllables correctly, modulate your voice in a natural melody, and seamlessly connect sounds and words. You'll also acquire authentic American expressions for various everyday scenarios like greetings, parties, shopping, and travel, along with effective methods for pronunciation practice and English learning, empowering you to speak confidently and captivate your audience effortlessly.

Who Is Your Instructor?

Christina, a Columbia University graduate in curriculum and teaching with a bilingual extension, brings 9 years of teaching experience from New York public and private schools to Wall Street English in Beijing. Having guided numerous students in learning English and achieving their dreams, Christina will lead you towards fluently speaking English with her impeccable American accent.
