This is the most helpful video I have seen on the subject. I have the Accent Master software too and it has helped me so much. Thank you!

Thanks for pointing out that "accent reduction" is probably not the right name for this type of class. I was always suspicious of the claim that a class of any length could help a non-native speaker, past the critical period of course, "lose" their accent. I enjoyed watching your video. Thanks

Everyone has an accent! Some are canadian, southern east coast or standard American!

This video is helpful, but the final comparison about car driving is a bit fallacious : there is no simple rule to know how to put the correct word stress on a word in english. You have to look in a dictionary or to be in immersion with native speakers.

Thanks for your comment. There actually is a way to predict word stress. It is based on the word ending. It is a bit much to go into here...but take my class and find out for yourself!

Louieionoz,
I'm sorry British and Australian accents are not what I have studied.
