Definitely not! Pronunciation is a critical component of communication in any language. It is better to start learning the essentials of American English pronunciation at an early a stage as possible so that foundational knowledge can frame everything you learn going forward.

It is recommended that you practice at least 30 minutes every day or about 3 hours per week. The more, the better! The lessons are meant to be practiced many times over, and in fact, need to be viewed and practiced many times for changes to start taking place in conversational speech.

There is never a point at which it will not benefit you to learn, and there is never a point (based on age) at which someone is incapable of learning. We have had 70-year-olds take our classes and make progress!

There are many individual factors which affect progress. Some examples are how much you practice and how closely you follow the instructions for practicing provided for you. Each student learns differently. Some students learn new information/skills easily and begin applying them right away; others require more time and feedback to make significant changes.

The best way to make a significant change is through one-to-one, live training with one of our expert trainers. That being said, our e-learning courses are designed to be used alone as a next-best option for those who aren’t ready to commit to a live training course.

We provide extensive video tutorials, lessons, practice materials and audio files to give you the knowledge you need to start improving. We will teach you how to produce the sounds and how to avoid common pitfalls so that you can be understood easily the first time you speak.
