Common Misconceptions About Accent Reduction Courses

May 16, 2023 By Daniel

Learning to understand and speak English with a native accent can be challenging. Unfortunately, many misconceptions about accent reduction programs can prevent you from taking advantage of these valuable resources.

This article will debunk the most commonly believed falsehoods related to Pronunciation School’s accent reduction courses.

Myths About Accent Reduction

You Can’t Completely Lose Your Original Accent

Yes, you can completely lose your foreign accent. By learning the sound patterns in the native English accents that apply universally across the language. That means the primary goal of the course is to eliminate all traces of a foreign accent.

Accent Reduction Courses Involve Mouth Physiotherapy

One of the most common misconceptions about accent reduction courses is that it requires physiotherapy for the mouth. However, accent reduction programs are primarily ear training courses. The courses aim at enabling learners to identify and replicate nuances in sound that differentiate one language from another, as heard in native speakers’ accents.
The focus is mastering the minor differences between foreign accents and native English ones to improve speaking accuracy and reduce any troublesome pronunciation issues. To do this, accent modification classes often help students become familiar with the sounds of spoken English by native speakers. This way, you can better understand what you need to change and implement your learned strategies.

You Need 1-1 Training For a Prolonged Period

One of the common misconceptions about accent reduction courses is that you need one-on-one training for 1-2 years. This is not the case, as there are many efficient and effective ways to learn to sound like a native speaker.
