Excellent practice material for English pronunciationI am a student of languages and an ESL tutor. I like the "Pronounce It Perfectly" series for myself (French and Spanish) and for my ESL students (English).
The material is a high quality mass-market version of professional ESL pronunciation workbooks. The audio is excellent and has a matching book. I like the following aspects: (1) each sound is covered in sufficient depth (variety and repetition) that a diligent student will acquire basic listening recognition and sound production skills, (2) there are examples of various spellings for a given sound (example: meet/meat) and again a diligent student will acquire basic skills at recognizing the probable spellings of a spoken word, (3) there are explanations of correct jaw, tongue and lip positions (very helpful!), and (4) important subtle details are covered (example: 'p' has a puff of air at the beginning of a word).
For my ESL pronunciation lessons, I like to work with "English Pronunciation Made Simple" and to loan the student a copy of "Pronounce It Perfectly in English."
Excellent Program, I fully recommend it.I'm amazed at how much I learned with these cd's. I bought them for my significant other, he's from Argentina and has a THICK accent that was difficult for people to understand. He knows the American English language, but he did not have a full understanding of the pronunciation. This program is AWESOME and fully recommend for people who want to improve their speech. This program is NOT for people who want to learn the language.
It's an excellent pack!!! I love it!When I bought this product I wasn't really sure how it would be.
However, I was studying English and I needed to improve my pronunciation and listening so I took the risk. It worth it!...
It's an excellent book (and cds too). I recommend it to everyone.
I listen to the cds every day :D .

Nice tool for self-studyThis English language learning kit offer a good self-study tool for us, people that not use the English idiom as our first language. I guess that this one is not the perfect product for the first timer users. You need to understand the English language first, in some basic form, because the product is all in english, but you really get a better pronunciation after it. Remember that this need time, your time, for better results. If you are not a good self-study person, you must consider another way of learning, all other things are really well explain and nice organize on it. The CD's play well on any CD player and the book guide is simple and nice illustrated.
Para las personas que hablamos otro idioma como primera lengua, este producto realmente es muy útil. Si tienes un verdadero compromiso contigo en aprender, este guía de estudio te ayudará. Recuerda que está toda en inglés, por lo que necesitarás tener un conocimiento básico del mismo, lo demás es muy fácil de manejar. Son varios CD y un libro guía que se complementan muy bien. Los CD los puedes escuchar en cualquier reproductor de CD como si fueran CD de música.
Great book but not so many exercises to practiceYou can learn a lot about pronunciation but there is not so many exercises to practice and audio quality of tracks is not so good. It's a good program for this price I think.
Product DescriptionESL students, TOEFL and TOEIC test takers, and all others for whom English is a second language and who want to improve their pronunciation will find this book and compact disc combination especially instructive. The new second edition presents a significantly increased number of exercises, all of them providing practice in every sound that is specific to American-style English. Emphasis is on stress and intonation patterns in conversational English. Recognition of these patterns is essential to fluent speech and listening comprehension. Four compact discs replace the first edition’s audiocassettes, and have been increased by 50 minutes in playing time to a total of 5 hours and 20 minutes. Read more...
