This challenge is designed to guide you through the 5 foundational parts of the English accent with short, focused assessments each day. By the end, you’ll have a clear understanding of where your weaknesses lie and a solid plan to improve. Here’s how it works: Daily Assessments Guide Day 1 Assessment: 📲 Start Recording: Open the Day 1 Assessment and record yourself saying all the sounds, words, and sentences for each of the 13 sounds listed. ☕ Take a Break: Once you've completed the recordings, take a break—grab a coffee or have a quick rest to clear your mind. 🎧 Review Your Recordings: When you're ready, listen to the recordings. Pay close attention to how you sound and identify any pronunciation issues. 📝 Identify Challenges: Use the workbook to assess which three sounds were the most difficult or unclear. Once you’ve identified the challenging sounds, move on to the next step. 🎥 Watch Pronunciation Videos: Watch the videos that explain how to properly pronounce the three sounds you struggled with. Practice along with the examples in the videos. 🗂️ Set Your Plan: After identifying the problematic sounds, use the workbook to create a plan for the week. Set up 5-minute daily practice habits for each sound to focus on improving those specific areas consistently. Now repeat this process for the other daily assessments: Day 2: Monophthong Assessment Day 3: Diphthong Assessment Day 4: Intonation and Word Stress Day 5: Connected Speech + Bonus RP Accent Lesson The final day covers connected speech (how words blend together in natural English). You’ll also get a bonus lesson on the RP British accent, which is a model of clear, prestigious English speech. What You’ll Gain: After just 5 days, you’ll: - 🎯 Identify exactly which areas of your speech need improvement. - 🧠 Gain the knowledge to fix them and create a plan to build a clear, native-like accent. You can use the free materials to confidently work on your accent, but if you’d like personalized feedback, I offer a paid service for just 7 euros, where I will:

/s/ Level 1: Isolated Sound Pronunciation - Task: Students will pronounce the consonant sound in isolation, focusing purely on accuracy of the individual sound. They will submit a voice note with just the sound repeated several times (e.g., /s/, /t/, /r/). Level 2: Word-Level Pronunciation - Task: Students will pronounce words containing the target consonant sound in three different positions (beginning, middle, and end). Start of the Word (5 words) Example: If the sound is /s/, words might be sun, sea, sit, see, sand. Middle of the Word (5 words) Example: If the sound is /s/, words might be basin, lesson, basic, listen, mesa. End of the Word (5 words) Example: If the sound is /s/, words might be grass, bus, pass, focus, fuss. Level 3: Phrase-Level Pronunciation - Task: Students will pronounce short phrases where the target sound occurs in various positions. This will test their ability to maintain the correct pronunciation in context. Example for /s/: - "Sit still" (start), - "The basic idea" (middle), - "She gave him a pass" (end). Level 4: Sentence-Level Pronunciation - Task: Students will pronounce longer sentences that contain the target sound multiple times in different positions, testing fluency and consistency. Example for /s/: - "Susan saw a seal swimming in the sea and decided to sit and watch the sunset." /p/ Level 1: Isolated Sound Pronunciation - Task: Students will pronounce the /p/ sound individually, focusing on producing a clear and accurate sound.
