English Pronunciation Just Got A Whole Lot Easier ...

This is a great question. The British Isles, and further afield in other English-speaking countries, have a beautiful array of different accents to choose from. What is explored in this programme is what is known as Standard British pronunciation. It’s most commonly heard in the South of England and is sometimes known as Received Pronunciation.

At various points on your ‘Roadmap’, there is the ability to choose from different speech patterns within the ‘Standard British English’ spectrum. Some are more commonly-spoken and are features of relaxed speech, and others can be chosen for a more ‘muscular’, ‘formal’ or ‘professional’ style of speaking.The beauty of it is that once you know the options you can make an informed choice in your speech habits – and English Pronunciation Roadmap enables you to do this.

This book is designed to help anyone, for whatever reason, who wants to learn a ‘Standard’ British English accent – also known as RP (see above), for example, if:

– You speak English as a second language, and simply want to be clearer and better understood

– You teach English as a second language

– You’re a fellow voice coach, seeking a resource to help your students with their pronunciation and intonation.

– You’re native English speaker with a regional accent who wants to soften their own

– You might even be an actor who needs to learn a standard British accent for an audition or part.

It certainly could be – and I haven’t even tried yet, so who knows! But I much prefer the ability to deliver my system without any restrictions: whether it’s how many pages I must limit myself to … or how many hours of audio … or whether I can use coloured signposts to guide each learner … or how detailed I can be in explaining each particular habit for each sound. With Edwin Publishing this has been possible.

Credibility tends to be identified by authenticity and experience. In learning, this couldn’t be more true.

I have years of one-to-one, hands-on, real-life experience, and testimonials showing the transformative nature of the work that I have developed along the way. Global, profiteering marketplaces don’t necessarily indicate credibility.

Not all influencial, impactful, interesting and useful stuff comes with the seal of approval from global, profit-oriented companies and institutions. And in fact, most of these types of learning resources are written by academics and edited to the point whereby they lose their human voice.

This has been a real labor of love, and its primary focus is to communicate with you on a human, everyday, real-life level – without confusing and unnecessary jargon, and with accessible, interesting, thorough language with coaching exercises tried and tested over many years.

We all lead really busy lives with all sorts of commitments. What most people are looking for is something that can fit in with their schedule, that they can either get really stuck into when they have the time, but which can also be bite-sized when they haven’t but still want to keep the momentum going.

I have worked tirelessly to achieve this by turning each learning point into a 15-30 min coaching session, indicated at the beginning of each section. Which means that you can pick it up when you have time, choose a section that fits in with the time you have, and come back when you’re next available.

Equally, you could ‘get stuck in’ and do three or four coaching sections and really capitalise on the time you have. It’s a simple, step-by-step learning companion which you can engage with at whatever level works for you.

Unlike most of these books whose publishers have distanced the author from their reader, you can choose to engage in a live dialogue with me via the Members’ Virtual Coach page, where I answer all extra questions you have on implementing the training.

OR you can post a question in the members-only Facebook group where you can reach out to EPR coaches (including myself) along with other members of our community, for any support you need.

And, unlike most learning resources, this has been written to feel like the next best thing to a face-to-face coaching session. No rock has been left unturned, and every identified pronunciation habit has its go-to exercise that has been tried and tested for years in my real-life coaching.

Also you’ll be receiving free articles and blog posts by email, and even some real face-to-face coaching should you choose.

Face-to-face coaching is best, but unlike most of those self-guide learning resources, this will feel like I’m right there with you, holding your hand and coaching you through every section. I use simple, direct language, examples and explanations to lead you step-by-step through each part. Plus, coaching is always an option, just drop me a line.

How do you know until you try?

Let me invite you to engage in this training for up to 60 days. And if you still decide it's not for you, just get in touch and you'll receive a 100% refund with no questions asked.

We wouldn’t dare do this guarantee if we weren’t completely confident in our ability to help you develop your speech.

That’s the great thing about the internet, you can search and compare the best deals and make a choice that works for you. Money is a big influence on decision making, but so is the broader experience and benefits being offered.

I’m confident that no other pack will guide you through your own habits as clearly and thoroughly as English Pronunciation Roadmap. Nor will it have the same resources and personalised help that I offer (see bonuses described above), or the ability to pair the pack with a personalised assessment to really get things moving quickly for you.

It’s true that some of these books have to be general because of their global audience. But not this one.

My experience privileges me with having heard of all the various habits and patterns amongst speakers who are interested in British English pronunciation. And so each sound and section in the book has clearly described and supported your specific habits and patterns – giving tried-and-tested, real coaching exercises to guide you in your journey. It has thorough practice pages for each sound, and sections with real life examples that help you to integrate the new habit into live speech.
