We will set goals for the English accent that you wish to develop both at a professional and at a personal level. We will analyse the most common difficulties in English pronunciation and the effects that these difficulties may (inadvertently) have on the intelligibility and credibility of your accent. We will also take account of the role of pronunciation features in identity construction. You will conduct exercises, practise ear-training and be given tools that help you analyse English pronunciation features. You will work on features in your own English accent accordingly.
