The best way to improve your pronounciation is to listen to lots of audio materials with the accent you'd like to adopt, and to practice repeating phrases from the audio while trying to sound as similar as possible. This can be tough to do alone. Recording yourself doing this so you can play it back may help.

Watch movies and listen to songs. If you watch the same movies over and over again, repeating phrases after the actors say them, you will feel much more natural with your accent.

Native speakers do not annunciate every sound, so to sound more natural you will have to learn where we combine sounds. Music is a great way of doing that.

I suggest daily practice and whenever you speak the language try to speak it with the accent. In my opinion, it is best to speak a language without having much of an accent since you are bet

Well, you can also watch more TV seriers and movies. I would suggest Desperate Housewives cause I think their pronunciation is just gorgeous.
