Pronounce It Perfectly In English

by Jean Yates

ESL students, TOEFL and TOEIC test takers, and all others for whom English is a second language and who want to improve their pronunciation will find this book and compact disc combination especially instructive. The new second edition presents a significantly increased number of exercises, all of them providing practice in every sound that is specific to American-style English. Emphasis is on stress and intonation patterns in conversational English. Recognition of these patterns is essential to fluent speech and listening comprehension. Four compact discs replace the first edition's audiocassettes, and have been increased by 50 minutes in playing time to a total of 5 hours and 20 minutes.

"Pronounce it PERFECTLY in English"

It delivers exactly what the title suggests.
Good for the people who are not native English speakers. Asian people should go through this to see where they need improvement.

Not sure how essential it would be for ESL, TOEFL & TOEIC students, but when you're teaching yourself the basic steps, why not give it a go.

Enough material, good content for the context.

What you can expect:-
1. English Vowel sounds.
2. English Consonant sounds.
3. Stress patterns.
4. Intonation Patterns.

Enough examples to point you in the right direction.

The best part is, it comes with an audio. Something you can compare yourself with.

P.S
The language spoken is American English.
