    This Book is a Wonderful Resource

    I am a higher education professional who has worked with many international students. One of the things these bright students all have in common is their desire for success with their American colleagues and clients. It may initially seem unimportant, but one of the main things holding the students back from success is their inability to master the American accent. This book is a great resource for anyone wishing to understand and master the basics of the American accent. The book is easy to read and includes audio and video adjuncts to the text as well as tests and success stories. Kudos to Susan M. Ryan of ConfidentVoice for creating this wonderful resource!

    Great resource English learners

    Clear, well developed overview of the American accent with great multimedia content including text, audio, and video. Even as a native English speaker, I learned a great deal about my own accent! I especially liked the practice dialogs and can see how using this book would lead to better communication skills for anyone seeking to speak English more clearly.

    American Accent Fundamentals

    This book is a great resource for people trying to learn english. I am a high school teacher who works with a lot of English Language Learners and I think this book will be very helpful. ELL
    Students don't get much, if any, instruction in English pronunciation. This book would serve as an excellent foundation for high school or college students who want to learn these rules.
