American Accent Training for Chinese First Language Speakers

This video focuses on common issues all first language Chinese speakers of English have in common (Mandarin, Cantonese, Taiwanese, and other dialects). Topics include: integrating air flow with speech, especially on final consonants and endings (/s/, /z/, /ed/), linking with air flow, increasing awareness on creating and implementing changes in speech, making final sounds louder, and lengthening vowels in stressed syllables following by /l/, /m/, /n/, and /ng/ sounds.

I myself tore my mouth first to enlarge it.
