The number one pronunciation app!

I can understand any English accent, but when it comes to my own accent, in my ears it sounds just fine! I hear others speak with my accent, and I can even "correct" some sounds. This app is confronting, lol, Listen, record, hear, compare. Yes, it is undeniable; one sentence out of my mouth, and people know where I was born. Even a simple word like "hard" is suddenly a struggle, as I now hear when I say it: "harrd". This app says, "Perfect for children, beginners and anyone starting their English pronunciation mastery". Do not let those words fool you if you are not a child or beginner. If you have an accent, this should be the first app to buy. There is nothing childish or beginner about this app, as the focus is on pronunciation. It is only fitting that the poems are easier, and some are less fast-paced. All poems in this app are as delightful as in the "Get rid of your accent" app. Would it be possible to build in an option of slowed-down speech for sentences and poems? I can understand it fine, but I think if the speech is slower, I can repeat it more slowly, which would help me get the fast version right. Thank you for those great apps!

I really like the concept of the application where I can listen to the correct pronunciation first, then record mine and then listen to the comparison to work on the differences. The explanations are simple and easy to follow. The exercises group the words according to rules and patterns so that they can be remembered. Best of all, I can take the application with me wherever I go to keep practicing.

Excellent app, very useful for improving one’s pronunciation. The app lets you listen the original audio, recording, and listen back yours for comparison. You can also change this settings if you just want to hear the audio without recording. I use the app while walking to work, fantastic!
