Learn first about the Accent Change journey. Then, learn how to break words into Syllables the American way. After this, learn how Syllables are combined together in typical American Tempo. Finally, learn the American meaning of certain words.
Contents: This publication, "The American Accent Learnway – Set the Right Foundation" is the first of three modules comprising "The American Accent Learnway – Cross the Bridge, Over the Divide", i.e. Coursebook One of the American Accent Learnway. The modules enable you to complete Coursebook One in segments. The present Module 1, just by itself covers about half the full Accent Change journey.
Note: Because of the distribution of content across the modules, some content is repeated and presented in different modules in a logical order for reader convenience. Numbering is retained from Coursebook One for consistency, though at times at a different location from the original sequence.

It is relevant to share a bit about my own language development, my education and career – the context that led me to devote myself full-time, for many years, to the creation of this Course. I grew up in India where I went through most of my education. Though my parents came from different language backgrounds, the language spoken at home was...
