ABOUT THE AUTHOR & COPYRIGHT

As a child I had no idea how to improve my pronunciation, so as I was growing up I decided to conduct an experiment on myself!

I tried many different techniques along with many different speech development manual that Ive read. Then Ive chosen the most fun and engaging techniques in my opinion, so that you as a learner can thrive and achieve your goals with an excellent pronunciation in the future.

I believe even if youre an advance user of a foreign language you need to master your pronunciation skills all the time.

This is a great English pronunciation book that not only helps you get the sharpest and clearest pronunciation but also truly exciting and musical!

I hope youll love the book and Im really excited to tell you that two more pats are coming really soon, also I share all the behind the scenes on my Instagram so go follow to get to know me and to not miss any updates on the upcoming books as well @yanavasyl

-Love Yana.

A letter from Yana

DEAR LEARNER

I wish you good luck with your studies and heres a quick guide how to use this book and all the benefits of every exercise.

Heres also included a ready-to-use schedule made just for your needs. Make sure to write down your schedule onto something that can always remind you that you need to practice your pronunciation.

And remember that its natural to not pronounce everything clearly and perfectly from the start, but as you practice more you will adjust to the new sounds and you will start making great progress and become more fluent.

If you see these little helpers, get excited because they mean:

Y OUR SCHEDULE

Its really important to follow your study schedule, however I dont recommend you to force yourself into a class if for some reason you dont want to do it today, its totally ok, you can always reschedule it on the next day.

WARM UP AND PHONETICS

These are simple warm up exercises that you really want to do if theres an exercise in the book and you are about to learn a new sound. It prepares your mind to speak faster and clearer.

Also you can do it before any speaking, like public speaking, for example.

When youre just learning these warm up exercises make sure to look in the mirror while practicing them. Hold each position for 3 second then relax your mouth for 3 seconds and repeat the same position 3 times.
