Hi Rebecca , greetings from India..I am a Corporate life skills Trainer & a language trainer. I want to appreciate the fantastic effort you have taken to create all of these priceless learning videos that is helping countless people across nations, it helped me as a trainer ...God bless you keep soaring high ...Bob Dsouza
I am Australian Actor with French as my first language, although I do not have a French accent but do speak fluent. This has helped me a lot and will for sure add it to my vocal routine. Thank you.
I've only studied French, German & Spanish, but I've worked with hundreds of clients from countries all over the world identifying the patterns they use when speaking American English. It's a lot of fun!
Has anyone ever told you that you sound just like Dixie Carter (Julia Sugarbaker) from the show Designing Women? You have a very beautiful voice, very strong and powerful. I love it.
Accent work with a Coach will help vocabulary usage because most non-native speakers write and read better than they speak, so it makes all of your "passive" vocabulary "active" when you learn to pronounce sounds better and stress words correctly ... come to our website for a free consult!

Nice video, Rebecca. I'm Diego from Argentina and love languages. How many languages do you speak, by the way? Just out of curiosity. I enjoyed listening to your German. :) Cheers.
hello mam...I am from Nepal and i am like really really interested to have an american accent but sometime it sounds pretty weird which make me very nervous.....Any suggestion please
How to get such a smooth soft catchy voice?? Really, how to practice to get it? Your voice is so calm and comfortable, if you're my teacher I will never lack of focus, your voice is so attractive
Hi , Most of the coaching here is "Spoken English" They only teach people speak English (indian english ofcourse with prper grammar). Its really hard for me to Find any Accent Classes in Chennai (Down South- State of Tamil). So is there anyway I could do this online somewhere (Meanwhile I will do my search for accent classes here in Chennai, thanks a lot rebecca)
I would say,the way she speaks spanish is like a german trying to speak spanish,that´s my point of view,i´m a native spanish speaker,but i found her video helpfu to improve the way i speak english :)
I think you missed the point entirely and might want to watch videos #1-3 in that order to grasp the intent ... it's through awareness of how our patterns from our first languages affect our second and third languages that we can begin to create sustainable change ... make sense?
Your Spanish seems like you're a native spanish speaker, trying to be a French!. LOL I love the way you sound... I wish i could be in contact with you...
Hi rebecca! I love your lessons so badly. However, I still get into trouble in reading a passage out loud. I can't articulate every ending sounds, link sounds as well as get the right intonation. Can you give me some advice because I'll become an interpreter in the future.
There really is no shortcut, unfortunately. You have to do a diagnostic, find out exactly what you are doing differently, and systematically work to create change with an Accent Coach (native speaker of the accent you desire) to correct you and give you feedback every step of the way ... you can request a free eval on my website if you like.
Huh... I never thought about it but English really is primarily spoken from the vocal chords. Spoken it my entire life and never realized this simple fact. Even I learned something from this video.
Hey Rebecca, This is Gopi from India. I love your Videos and i want to know how to increase my Vocabulary ??? I can understand if someone speak with different vocabulary but i don't know Y can't i speak ???Pls help me Out Rebeccca
U did a gr8 job in explaining, but u sound so low. I can barely hear u.... I have to listen through an ear phone. ..on my phone ...., FYI please increased the volume or speak a little louder. ... Thanks, and Great job in explaining
hi, gorgeus, am an indian but ma dads an englishman, but my english is good for all the english speakin people, wat say about that, but ma accent is different
This articulation with airflow sounds OK to me. But I find it is exact what native american, especially females, DO NOT do. They very frequently like to speak with a blocked, suppressed, monotonous squeaky voice at the lowest corner of their vocal chords. At the end of the sentence they lift it up as it was a question... but it is not at all.
good question ... first, the best way to phrase it "with the support of the diaphragm" and no, many people speak poorly ... the issue is that if you are going to the trouble of learning an accent (like the American one) why not develop good speech habits too? And that's why diaphragmatic speech is important!
I am a fan Ms. Rebecca. I use your techniques in teaching AmE accent
I remembered watching your video about a year ago, and how you've changed so much. You look great! Thanks for constantly posting.

Thank you so much for this technique. I believe it will help me neutralize my accent.

No, they're South America as opposed to Central America and North America.
It help not too much

So true!

Do all Americans speak from the diaphragm??
good question ... first, the best way to phrase it "with the support of the diaphragm" and no, many people speak poorly ... the issue is that if you are going to the trouble of learning an accent (like the American one) why not develop good speech habits too? And that's why diaphragmatic speech is important!
Thanks, I live in the US and just to let you know I do find your voice soothing and speech much better controlled compared to a lot of people here.
