Phil｜Accent Trainer

It's a relief to know that there is a teacher who can teach (and challenge!) a proficient speaker. Phil is able to point out anything that sounds even slightly off, despite the fact that I speak with a British accent. Our main objective, however, is improving my understanding of phonology so that I could deliver better lessons, whether I'm teaching English or Czech. Our first two lessons were very informative and pleasant. Speaking with someone who is so passionate about the subject is a delight.

这节课非常重要，它都颠覆了我以往的对英语的认知。。。之前我还以为英语每个音都要发出来呢。。。其实不用，跟我以前学的完全不一样。。。现在觉得合理多了。

Very helpful lesson, as usual Phil provided very useful comunicative tools to handle a wide of variety of situations that help me a lot to get into complex professional scenarios that require strong verbal skills. Thanks so much for keeping the high quality of your classes!

I thoroughly enjoyed today's class with Phil. He utilized an engaging article that helped me practice my American accent. The experience was enjoyable, and I can already feel a significant improvement in my accent since our first session. I also appreciated our in-depth discussion based on the article.

It’s been a pleasure taking courses with Phil. Each session is packed with valuable insights and information. I find myself learning something new every time, from detailed pronunciation, grammar to the daily conversation and culture.

One technique Phil employed that I particularly appreciated is "linking words." For example, transforming "I like it" to "I lie kit" helps make speech flow more smoothly and sound closer to native speakers. This is highlighted in Chapter Eight of the book "Mastering the American Accent." I found this method to be helpful in improving the fluidity of my speech.
