You could read a course book or articles to try to improve your pronunciation. Unfortunately, books won’t provide video demonstrations, listening activities, and instruction combined that Artikul8 provides. |
You could take courses or classes from English language teaching professionals BUT while they are experts at teaching English as a LANGUAGE, they are NOT qualified experts to work with you to change PRONUNCIATION patterns or introduce new ones (which REALLY is the only way to improve pronunciation). |

"Overall, the structure and layout of the course is well thought-out and very approachable. The individual break downs of what students need to be learning and focusing on is also good, and the use of video and audio explanations is also well organised and developed. "
"Looking into some specifics, I think that throughout the ‘listening for sounds’ exercises, the fact that you have not shown how we actually spell those words immediately helps students develop a more authentic and/ or native pronunciation. The audio in both the video clips and the MP3 files is clear and very easy to understand.
I really like this course and it is a great idea that I hope you add more courses too in the future. I have a lot of students that could use a hub like this to practice without actually having to have a face to face lesson."
