Foreign Accent Program CD

Currently in production, this CD is the first of its kind! It is a 25 to 35 hour tutorial Voice and Articulation program designed for an individual who is having difficulty being understood because of a national or international dialect or accent. This self-paced program is also designed for the person who wishes to improve and develop his or her voice and speech. It presents a detailed guide to the following speech and voice components:

  • 47 units of exercises on the sounds alone (vowels, diphthongs, and consonants).
  • Units on voice, homophonous words, intonation, phonetics.
  • Units on idioms, linguistics, listening and ear training.
  • Phonetic symbols.
  • Vocal dynamics and vocal quality.

In addition to incorporating the above mentioned units, you will find

  • Guidance for over 24 foreign accents.
  • American dialects.
  • English as a foreign language.

This is NOT a cassette tape, but a Foreign Accent Reduction Program on a Compact Disk which allows the student to play back and record his or her own efforts as often as you wish as well as to play the reference samples without limit. With nearly 7,000 separate sound samples, it also contains a glossary, personal student notebook, and on-line assistance developing enhancements.

In an effort to give you a sampling of Dr Crannell's exclusive and unique Foreign Accent Reduction Program, the following three (3) examples are offered.

Note: The audio performance over the internet is dependent on your connection type and speed. Different browsers treat audio content differently as well. Please keep in mind that these examples offer only a taste of what our program really accomplishes. Buttons that play sounds would ordinarily play the sound directly with no extraneous buttons or windows instead of what you may encounter here.

Stay tuned for availability date of this revolutionary tutorial CD which will be announced on this website where you will be able to purchase this first of its kind program! Thank You.
