This will help you to be a more independent learner. You need to recognize when you have a pronunciation problem.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use a minimalistic method of creating a sound:<\/strong> Don\u2019t try to exaggerate when you practice saying the sounds of English. Instead, learn to make the sound in a minimalistic way. This will help avoid embarrassment and will help you start to speak more naturally and with confidence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Get a native rhythm:<\/strong> Learn how to reduce sounds that should be reduced. We don\u2019t pronounce every sound with the same emphasis. It\u2019s important to study natural rhythms and know how certain syllables need to be stressed and how they fit in with other syllables that are not stressed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t be afraid of sounding like someone else: <\/strong>A lot of students feel nervous when they hear themselves speak naturally, like a native. They seem to lose a sense of identity. They are afraid that people will look down on them. This is an example of being afraid of success. Don\u2019t let it happen to you!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allearsenglish.com\/?s=pronunciation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Get more episodes about American English pronunciation here!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allearsenglish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Mandy1.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.allearsenglish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Mandy1-300x200.jpeg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.allearsenglish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Mandy1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.allearsenglish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Mandy1.jpeg 640w\" alt=\"Mandy\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\"><\/a>Mandy\u2019s Bio:<\/p>\n<p>Mandy has been teaching English as a Foreign Language with a focus on pronunciation and accent reduction since 2005 at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seattlelearning.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Seattle Learning Academy<\/a>, an English language school she founded in Seattle Washington, USA.
