LESSON 1 · Pronunciation Breakthrough

Your Pronunciation Improvement Plan

Follow this daily routine to start seeing progress over time:

  • Record yourself reading a short paragraph once a week and compare over time
  • Identify your top 3 sounds by asking a native speaker or using a pronunciation app
  • Practice in isolation for 2 minutes, then in minimal pairs (ship/sheep, vine/wine)
  • Slow down — speed hides problems, and clarity at slow speed can transfer to fast speech
  • Shadow native speakers — play a sentence, pause, repeat with the same rhythm and sounds

Perfect pronunciation is not the goal. Clear pronunciation is.
