I would like to give a special welcome to all the Filipinos who visit my blog every day in order to find tips and techniques that will help them improve their American English pronunciation. I know that you are highly motivated to learn!

Here are four common pronunciation problems for Filipinos:

1. Vowels need to be lengthened in stressed syllables.

2. Voiced /th/ needs to be stronger.

3. Word final s sounds need attention-especially when it’s a voiced /z/ sound

4. Sentence stress and intonation including the use of content, focus & function words.

I know that getting access to American English pronunciation materials can be hard for you. I encourage you to sign up for my free accent reduction course if you have not done that already.

This is just an introductory course but it will give you some tips and techniques.

If you are interested in an online class just for Filipinos email me at confidentvoice@gmail.com. If I receive enough interest I’ll do a special online class for you Filipino speakers of American English.
