What's Next for Accent Training? (Podcast update, Not a lesson) | #300

0:00Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the accent training podcast. My name is Pat. I'm your personal American accent coach and folks we've finally made it. Episode 300 of the accent training podcast. What an incredible 300 episodes this has been my friend. I'm so happy to have been able to share this journey with you. It's been six years. About six years ago, maybe five and a half years ago, I started this podcast just because my students were asking me how can I practice between our classes. I have no idea what I can do. I'm really enjoying our classes, but I need something that I can do to keep the momentum going. And so I thought I

1:00better start recording these lessons and the things that I wasn't able to cover in the class just because there may not have been enough time. I'd write it down, record a podcast episode, and you are now able to listen to it on your drive to work as you're sitting on the train. Maybe when you're going to the gym or washing the dishes. And the whole world can train the American accent with me, Pat, your personal American accent coach. Over these last 300 episodes, you have moved with me all over North America, starting off in Mexico in the southern part of the city of Monterey and then all the way out to the desert in the most remote location possible while my wife completed her social service as a doctor and weren't those fun times recording in our truck.

2:03That's where I learned a truck is a fantastic podcast studio. And now all the way up north in Calgary. And so what else is coming up? Well, my friend number one is that you can expect some better quality lessons. This is going to be the final audio only lesson of the accent training podcast that I'm going to produce. From now on, I'm going to make all of our lessons available with video, which is to say you had better be following the accent training podcast on YouTube, because I've already got hundreds of videos available on there. And one other thing I want you to know about is my accent confidence program. This is a guided program designed to help you develop a clear natural American accent for everyday conversations. In this program, you get lifetime

3:03access to the accent acceleration system. This is a complete step by step guide to retain your pronunciation and build a clear confident English accent. This includes pronunciation training, rhythm and intonation drills, listening development, shadowing exercises. And on top of all that, you get weekly group accent training sessions hosted by me live so that you can apply everything that you're learning in the system correctly. These sessions are held every Saturday at 1 p.m. Eastern. And I've been doing it for a little over a year now. So you know that you want to join you know that I'm going to be committed and sticking to it. Because in this group, students are receiving live feedback and corrections. So I'm actually able to give some impactful

4:06advice here. Newcomers are getting a personalized one-on-one onboarding session. Over this hour, we identify your main pronunciation challenges, your accent patterns. And we come up with an actual training plan, a road map, so that you know exactly what to focus on first. Plus, everything that we train is recorded.
