For those of you who are ashamed of your accent just know that a person with an accent is a person who speaks at least two languages, Right off the bat, that should be a confidence booster , I speak three languages and while I consider myself fluent in English I still have a little accent however, I never lose sleep over that, I’m trilingual and down the road I’ll be adding a fourth language to my repertoire, that alone gives me a lot of confidence when speaking…. Accents are part or your identity, be yourself, be proud of who you are.
I speak English pretty well I have an accent as well which I'm so proud of frankly speaking !!!!!! I love my accent with all my heart ...I will never and ever try to change my self so that people will love me ......
I agree 100 %, I’m trilingual as well, and very proud. If someone laughs on my accent. I ask them to say one word in my language. Then, I LAUG very hard at them, so they realize how hard it can be to speak another language.
“Do not allow your insecurity about your accent to paralyze you. Slow down and use a strong voice. You have something important to say, so say it with confidence.” I will say these in class.
Wow! You are one of the best teachers i have ever met especialy online! So encouraging, so articulate! Am so impressed by your teaching. Thank you teacher.
Omg! I personally felt like you were speaking to me! I have had those experiences in the past, and still do. Grappling with pronunciation, placement of emphasis on words, anxiety, fear of being mimicked and mocked and what not. Thank you for putting out this vid. Super helpful and encouraging 🇳🇬🇺🇸
Thank you for this fantastic and super helpful video. Very thoughtful of you telling us non-native speakers to stop emphasizing our accent flaws. When relaxed, my accent is reduced, I’ve noticed that, and other people also commented the same.
Hi , I have been teaching Maths and Physics for 33 years, here in Lebanon we have to explain in English.When I started teaching I was lost between the American accent and the British one , now my American accent is much better but after discovering you , I know now that my English language could be much better, every video (of yours ) I watch , I learn something new . Now I feel that I am feeding my English language from the right source. Thank you very much, I do appreciate it, yes you are a wonderful teacher and an amazing person as well. May God bless you
Teacher, I am a soldier by profession but I have great interest to know many international languages . Thanks you have been teaching me to know one of them.
Watching your videos teaching English language - (pronunciation and grammar) is very helpful to none native English speakers like me! Thank you for your free tutorial English language, Liza! God bless!
Lisa, your last thoughts on this video: "you have something important to say...if someone criticized your accent don't keep that on your memory.." was a divine advise/tip. Thank you. You are an one glamorous Teacher. God bless you .
I don't know why it took me a lot of time to find this channel; your video about rising and falling intonation made me aware that is not OK to use rising intonation on statements (even when a lot of youtubers and social media personalities use it all the time). Definitely one of the most professional channels on english learning out there.
I’m glad I came across with this channel. I live in Canada, and I always struggled with my accent. I thought that this was something I have to deal my entire life. So I am really happy that there people out there like you teaching how to improve our accent. Thank you for doing this.
Hello Lisa, Thanks for your amazing explanation for a non-native speaker, because I was one of those who always struggle with my accent so I always speak fast but not clearly. Thanks for your sharing, this is so helpful.
I am from india working in american BPO and you really hit the nail on the head when you said some people tend to say negative things about your accent and don't let it stay in your mind. It really happened to me when speaking with native speakers however after hearing what you said i feel confident.
This video is super amazing and incredible! It's cleared our doubts and fears and insecurities when speaking English. A million thanks to Lisa, we really appreciate that. 👍💪💖
I congratulate with you! This is the best ESL/EFL online I've seen. Really professionally designed tips, unlike many well-meaning but highly improvised language teachers sigh!
Excellent video. Many people living in this country do not accept that their accent needs to be improved. I was one of them until my native speaker husband made me realize that I needed to loose my accent.
I want to share with you one advice I received many years ago and that has worked phantastic for me. Listen repeatedly someone speaking your own mother tongue with let’s say English accent for instance. It is much easier to realize the intrinsic prononciation details when you hear in words you are very familiar with. Second step, try to imitate that English accent in your own language. This helps you fix that prononciation and tone in your brain. Finally, try to speak English with the same accent… Note: it takes a few days… then it goes very quickly.
Lisa, the last tips about accent is encouraging. I used to receive negative comments about my accent. When I spoke with the person over the phone the first time, she was able to understand me. On the next phone call when I explained to her how much balance she owed, she started to blame my strong accent, and complain that my sentences were incomplete. She had such a difficult time to understand me. I was up sad and lost my confidence of taking phone calls for a while.
Hi Lisa, One thing I would like to tell you that I've been struggling to understand some of the English accents that American people speak. The native accents there are kind of hard for me to understand. I spoke with some people from New Jerzy and California and I had no trouble understanding their accents. But when I spoke with some people from Alabama, I had trouble. Moreover, I find it too hard to understand some of the African Americans' English accents. Could you please say something regarding this? Perhaps you can make a video comparing these accents in a video and explain. Thanks in advance .
Fantastic video 📹. I am from Mozambique 🇲🇿, a Portuguese speaking country in Africa. So far I can speak three languages fluently(Portuguese, English and Shangaan). Currently fighting for Spain to be the 4th language. My English accent is quite different from others'. However I do not speak just like a native English speaker. It is clear and understandable, though.
Teacher Lisa how are you. I really appreciate your lessons, it makes me improve my English. Thanks a lot may God bless you and continuing to bless you 🙏
These videos are really good. Lisa, you have pinpointed what many people have had trouble with. I'm impressed. My wife is Korean and today I'm going to show her these videos. Thank you!
Lisa, your comment toward the end of the video was absolutely beautiful and encouraging. I wished I had heard those words when I first came to the US at age 14.
Love you dear teacher.You are the most wonderful ,and knowledgeable teacher of all time.In you lessons you touch every aspect of language and it's absolutely impressive 💖💖
I really find it difficult to correctly pronounce the word “develop” but I guess I will be able to pronounce it more naturally after watching this video. Thanks Lisa.
Thank you for teaching us these tips, your lectures are always so clear and helpful, especially the stress in a sentence and the speed of our speech. Even when we're fluent, these mistakes can sometimes hold us back from sounding like a native.
Teacher Lisa. You're just outrageous at teaching English. I've learned a lot from you. I love the way you speak AND pronounce the words, etc . My pronunciation Is improving day by day
I love this video, I used to felt insecure when people ask where am I come from and so curious about my accent. But now I learnt how to speak clear and pronounce correctly, (but I still need to learn how to speak slowly and stress at the correct syllable), I think the most important is people understand what you are talking about.
I watched some of her videos a couple years ago maybe and now I just re-discovered her channel! I liked this vid so much that I wanted to leave a comment today, thanks Lisa for all your dedication!!
I learned alphabets when I was 25 years ago because I didn’t get chance to go to school when I was a kid due to civil war. And then started speaking English just by listening to other people. Now I started posting video in my channel in English. I know I have heavy accent but I try my best to talk clearly. At first I’ve got few negative comments about my accent and I couldn’t sleep for weeks. But now I am used to those negative comments and I can see my speaking skills improving when I started posting regularly.
Thank you Lisa.I really appreciate your methodology of teaching the stress of a word. I did learn that second syllable in Verb, last syllable in Noun should be stressed. If you give information, based on this strategy, it will help us a little more. Thank you
I am an immigrant living in US for about 4 years and I work with Americans every day. Although I speak English well many words I don't pronounce correctly and as she said at the beginning of the video I know that many times people don't understand what I say because of my accent. I'm trying to improve but for that I know that I need to watch a lot of conversation videos, read and listen to audios in American English constantly. Every day I discover words that I was pronouncing wrongly but I admit that study all the time is difficult and the improvement is very slow.
Hi, Lisa. Thanks for coming on my channel and having me on your channel, too. It was a lot of fun working together.
Thank you Alex for collaborating with our Queen Lisa. You're so handsome. 😊☺️🤭
