NOW INCORPORATED IN THE
STANDARD ENGLISH PROGRAM
When SpeechSchool.TV first opened we offered
a course dedicated to the American Accent (presented by Tami
Smith & Natalie Stettler). However in 2010 we made the
decision to close this course in order to concentrate on a sole
Master Speaker
Standard English program for all learners wanting
clear speech and a neutral accent regardless of their language
background.
One of the main reasons for this was that the majority of our
students, even in the USA & Canada preferred to
subscribe to the Standard English course in order to gain a more
pure basis for their spoken English.
Moreover, when learning the principles of
Standard English pronunciation it is relatively easy to
adapt that to any English speaking environment, whereas the
American accent tends to be more regionally based.
A British Accent: The route to success in America? Research suggests that a pure English accent is
more preferred in the United States and Canada than any of the home
grown American accents.
