Great Resource for teachers and very Aware students
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
As an instructor of Accent Achievement for several years at corporate and educational settings, I can recommend this student book and teacher's manual as a follow up for a basic accent course for intermediate or even advanced student levels. It is also a great resource book and possible alternative text to the more popular Clear Speech by Judy Gilbert. I believe it requires a high level of expertise on the instructor's part because this text looks deceptively easier than the underlying principals represented in it. So to make it work as a tool, the instruct must be able to present it and supplement it effectively.For the individuals looking for a self-study program, this is an especially good text when purchased with the cassettes and done as prescribed by the author. I believe that the benefit would be tripled as a self-study program, after an individual has completed some type of formal class with a trained instructor initially. I would recommend it for the high intermediate, advanced students and or those who have been in the US for 12+ years, again, if you pay close attention, know your target errors you need to work on and use the book with the tapes, it can be an effective self-study program.
