Insegnante di italki dal 4 Nov 2014
Argomento di interesseStoriaFilmLetturaSportScrittura
8+ years specializing in American Accent Acquisition, Accent Reduction, and Pronunciation. 12 years teaching.
I know the American Accent inside and out, I love teaching it, and I know exactly how to go about helping you with your accent goals. Whether it be speaking with clarity or acquiring the Standard American Accent.
I don't use one-size-fits-all approaches. They rarely yield results. We work on whatever's impacting your accent the most. Whether it be specific sounds or intonational elements. It's personalized, and gets to the heart of what's making your specific accent sound non-native, or unclear (goal-dependent). I know it works, because I've seen it work.
Che tipo di insegnante sono
As a high-quality accent coach and instructor, it's my job to comprehend and process all the little details that go into the vocal production of the American accent; and to provide you with what's most important for the improvement of your own accent. Presenting it all to you in an easily digestible way.
That's essentially what I do.
Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
In the first class, I'll listen to your pronunciation as we talk. This is the best way to diagnose what's going on in your accent. That way we know what sounds or intonational elements are having the largest impact on your accent in real conversational settings, rather than as isolated sounds.
We'll make a priority list based on what we find, and go to work on modifying and refining anything that sounds non-native or unclear (depending on your accent goals).
We'll practice your priority sounds/elements within sentences and reading passages, as well as through targeted shadowing of videos.
I provide continual feedback, tips, explanations of vocal tract phenomena, and expertise.

Reducing my French accent has been a struggle for years. With Josh's help, I'm finally making progress. He has a lot of cool tricks (like mapping ɪ to é -- that one blew my mind). I'm always looking forwards to the next lesson :-)

Great session. Josh shared some new techniques to improve on the accent, things that had never been shown to me by any other coaches before. Josh certainly offers a real opportunity to make further progress with his lessons.

If you are looking to reduce your accent and sound like a native English speaker, Josh is outstanding teacher here on italki.
He has learned a lot and he is aware of how your native language patterns affect your English, no matter what country you are from. He is a great communicator and passionate about different accents, languages and how people speak. While you are reading your favorite article or doing pronunciation practice exercises, he can perfectly hear, recognize and find a way to fix every odd sound, incorrect rhythm or a pitch.
I would definetely recomend working with Josh to anyone who's been strugled with pronunciation for a long time, or had already been assumed he sounds quite well enough. You'll discover lots of new and interesting things about how you sound, get fluency and levelup your communication skills in English.
Thank you!

Josh is very patient and provides feedback on sounds I have problems with. More importantly, he demonstrated how to pronounce them in detail.

I've been taking Josh's accent classes for about a year and a half, and I've noticed that my accent has changed for the better! Josh is a truly professional teacher who applies the most effective methods and tailors his approach to the specific needs of each student, paying attention to their mother tongue and how it affects their pronunciation. Moreover, Josh is friendly, polite, patient, and always finds the best way to explain the nuances of pronouncing certain sounds, even when they're tricky.
