Publisher Description:
Have you ever felt like your were being punished for even entertaining the idea of speaking English like an American? Does the rising tide of panic threaten to engulf you when you attempt to pronounce certain words? Maybe you're enjoying a conversation with an American, and don't see the question coming. "Where are you from?" Inquiries about your accent should not make you want to punch people in the face. Maybe you live in America, and having a tough time communicating. When we can't have our dreams, sometimes it's worse to be trapped near them. Fully supported by a series of free YouTube videos, this illustrated speech manual can help you change people's perceptions of you. Follow the instructions contained within, practice the vowel and consonant combinations, and you'll soon feel appreciation and acceptance from all the way across a crowded room. There will be a glow in people's eyes, marveling at your clear American speech. Pretty much all Japanese people-men, women and young adults-are all going to find something of value in this book. Don't get sidetracked in your mastery of American English. It's time for people to listen to your words, not your accent.
