Accents are about different speech sounds and localised ways of speaking a language. They are part of the culture of a language and – while they may make it harder to understand sometimes – contribute to its richness and diversity. This is true even in the way that non-natives might speak a language. A French person may speak English flawlessly, just with a French accent. That’s fine because there is no wrong or right with an accent.
Pronunciation, on the other hand, is more about making sure you’re understood properly and is something that – as a learner – you can get ‘right’ or ‘wrong’.
If your pronunciation is correct, and you understand how to use different phonetic sounds in different contexts, you can communicate effectively with others whatever your accent.
Different people will have different problems when approaching English pronunciation. For example, a Mandarin speaker will have very different challenges compared to an Italian speaker and so on!
For this reason, our online Pronunciation courses are designed according to your native language. Comparisons are made between the sounds in English and the sounds in your native language. It prioritises the sounds that will make the most significant differences to their accent.
