Accents are an expression of who you are and where you come from, so there’s nothing to be ashamed of if you’re able to communicate well and be understood in another language!

If you wanna learn a new language, and sound like a native-speaking, you gotta understand that our muscles are trained since our childhood to sound a certain way, and that’s the reason why accents exist.

It’s possible to train your muscles to sound like a native in English, and I wanna show you some tips to do it. Let’s start by the sound of “TH”, which is one of the hardest for foreigners to speak. 

You can try that sound by putting your finger in front of your mouth and repeating the sound without letting your tongue touch your finger.

Do it multiple times while saying a word like “think” or “thought”. 

What words are the hardest to speak in your opinion? Let me know!

See you next class!
