I specialize in ACCENT REDUCTION and American English pronunciation for intermediate and advanced-level English learners. I'm from California but I live in Madrid, Spain. I am a CELTA-certified teacher through Cambridge University, with over eleven years of professional English teaching experience. I have taught everything from grammar and exam preparation to conversation fluency and writing, but my specialty is English pronunciation. I've helped students from all over the world reduce their accents significantly and I'm very familiar with the various problems that each language brings.Me as a Teacher
I specialize in American English pronunciation and accent reduction for intermediate and advanced-level English learners. I do my best to cultivate a supportive environment where my students can learn and improve their pronunciation skills and confidence.
If you need to improve your pronunciation in order to be better understood or improve your confidence while speaking, I know that I can help you. I will help you gain a deeper understanding of English phonetics and break some of the bad habits that you've developed over the years.
I specialize in teaching PRONUNCIATION to intermediate and advanced-level grammar students.My lessons & teaching style
PRONUNCIATION:
My lessons are very focused and fun. Each lesson is based on an audio file and a PDF that I'll send to you prior to the lesson.
We study mouth and tongue positioning, word stress, intonation, connected speech, reductions, consonant clusters, linking, stop consonants, the Schwa sound, and more. My lessons are very structured and focused so be prepared to work hard.
CONVERSATION: My classes are easygoing, informative, and fun. You'll learn a lot and have a good time doing it.My teaching material

До занятий с Мейсоном я больше года пытался заниматься самостоятельно, изучая каналы на ютубе и используя приложения вроде Elsa. Однако именно занятия с Мейсоном позволили мне значительно улучшить мое произношение.
Во-первых, Мейсон очень хорошо ориентируется в типичных ошибках русскоговорящих и может доходчиво их объяснить их как через теорию, так и через практику.
Во-вторых, Мейсон дает множество подводящих упражнений для особо проблемных звуков, так что вы не будете биться как рыба об лед и сможете постепенно освоить сложные звуки, у которых нет близких аналогов в русском языке.
В-третьих, Мейсон довольно гибок в своих занятиях, вы можете разбрать любую интересующую вас тему, разнообразить уроки различными видео и текстами на ваш вкус.
Наконец, я рекомендую занятия с Мейсоном тем, кому важен результат. Если вы готовы регулярно заниматься, то вы очень быстро увидите эффект от занятий.

特别享受Mason老师的课程，在愉快的课程中不知不觉就提高了发音的水平，现在看美剧都能get到他们的发音细节了，经过不断的练习，假以时日成为national不是问题。Mason让我对学习英语有很大的进步和转变，最大的转变就是让我觉得学习英语是一种享受，而不是当作一个任务.
