#HelpMePronounce
Native speakers and italki Teachers can help correct your pronunciation.
Mini-Exercise: “When Pressure Steals Your English” 2–3 minutes • gentle awareness practice 1️⃣ Recall a moment when English felt harder than it should have. A meeting, an interview, a conversation — any moment where your mind suddenly tightened. 2️⃣ Notice what changed inside you first. Your breath? Your chest? Your thoughts speeding up? Your voice shrinking? Just observe without judging. 3️⃣ Complete this quiet sentence in your mind: “The pressure rises when I fear that…” Don’t edit it. Don’t fix it. Let the truth finish itself. 4️⃣ Take one slow breath and allow your shoulders to drop. This soft release helps your voice return. 5️⃣ Ask yourself: “What if nothing is wrong with my English — only with the pressure I carry?” That’s enough for today. Awareness is the first moment where your real voice begins to come back.

🌿 Mini-Exercise: “When Do You Start Performing?” Duration: 2 minutes Many learners don’t notice the exact moment their English shifts from expression to performance. This exercise helps you catch that moment gently — without judgment. 1. Recall your last English conversation Just one. The moment is enough. Ask yourself: “When did I stop expressing myself — and start performing myself?” Don’t force an answer. Let the moment choose you. 2. Notice the shift in your body Where did you feel it? Your chest? Your shoulders? Your breath? Most people feel the “performance moment” before they hear it. 3. Complete one quiet sentence: “I began performing when I felt… ______.” (This one line often reveals more than weeks of studying.) 4. End with a soft reminder: “My voice doesn’t need to impress. It needs to express.”

Attention English Language Learners: Two of the most shocking things I've learned from being an English tutor on Italki for 7 years... 1. Students from international countries assume that to speak American English you have to use perfect grammar and advanced words when you speak. That's actually mostly false. Though a bit true. See it depends really on your job. Maybe for your job you are a lawyer or a doctor and maybe your job requires you to speak advanced technical professional English. But the average every day native English speaker from the United States uses basic phrases, slang and vocabulary. We get our point across with the least amount of words possible. Our grammar is not perfect all of the time when we speak. We sometimes on occasion make a little mistake. Students assume that you must speak the same way that you write. That's not true. Casual basic spoken English is extremely different from written English. 2. Most students from international countries are either taught pronunciation is not important at all or not that important compared to grammar and sentence structure. This actually is not true. pronunciation is important. Equally important to grammar and sentence structure. Because not pronouncing a noun completely can change your spoken word to something else that you didn't mean to say. It can make your listener really struggle to understand your spoken sentence. A student could have perfect grammar and sentence structure (though not always necessary) but if a word is completely said with the wrong pronunciation that can really lead to confusion, assumptions and mis understandings from your listener. Not to say that you have to completely get rid of your accent. But you also want to learn basic pronunciation skills so your accent isn't so thick and strong that it makes words you say, not understandable.
