I wish you luck with your accent reduction.

Here is a record of our conversation. I hope you have success with
Wall Street and Gordon Gecko.

The most important accent reduction is to speak more sloooooowly
especially
on STRESSED vowels.

country are you from? [11:06:03 PM] hemantjindal says: India
[11:06:49 PM] Steve : cool how did you find my skype address
QUESTION... HOW CAN I REDUCE MY ACCENT?
[11:09:20 PM] Steve : copy a person's speaking pattern. Gordon Gecko
(Michael douglas_) is good for accent. "Greed is good." that is from
the movie WALL STREET. Also, speak slower
Third, go to npr.org, scroll to "THIS I BELIEVE"
You can copy the style of the person's voice.

Two reasons to pay attention in a Visual and Active classroom

Hello Gabriel.

I will encourage my students to write to you.
