American pronunciation expert — you can finally master speaking and listening with a polyglot coach! Currently learning 中文. MASTER AMERICAN PRONUNCIATION, learn to THINK in English, and express yourself fluently and fluidly. Beginner, intermediate, & advanced — all levels are welcome! Perhaps you'd like a teacher who actually knows how to learn languages — and is doing so successfully. Perhaps you could benefit working with a professional language-learner with decades of experience teaching teenagers and adults with busy lives like you. Phonology is my favorite “hack” — master it now, and your path will be a lot easier. The way you speak is the way hear, so if your pronunciation is off, your listening will be 10x more difficult. If you master the phonology & fix your pronunciation & accent now, everything will be a lot smoother going forward! Watch my video & WRITE ME BEFORE requesting our 1st lesson. Feel free to ask me how you can benefit from my expertise in phonology, phonetics, accent acquisition, grammar acquisition for fluency, pragmatic communication, US culture, etc., so that you can maximize your potential to thrive in an English-speaking environment. My specialties include phonology (phonetics, rhythm, intonation, etc), phonics, fluent grammar in real time conversation, self-expression in conversation & useful idiomatic expressions.
