The new CDs feature professional male and female voices that have been carefully selected to represent that perfect American accent. With 30 years of extensive research, the unique AAT methodology has been refined to teach the American sound quickly and easily, paying special attention to: Voice quality, with emphasis on accurate presentation of the authentic American sound Pronunciation, with attention to all vowels, consonants, blends, and diphthongs Intonation, which focuses on syllable stress rules and word stress in a sentence Linking, or liaisons between phonetically transcribed sounds so students can "see" the sound American Accent Training also offers detailed nationality guides for ten languages and accent variations: Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Korean, Arabic, and the US Southern accent. Added features include access to comprehensive websites, and referral to a qualified telephone analyst for individual help. American Accent Training has been Americanizing the speaking habits of students and business people since 1991. Going where no accent book has gone before, AAT continues to set the standard for anyone learning or teaching the American accent. Review: Brilliant! Learning a new accent has been made possible for adults. - Since I thought Americans say every word as it's written, no matter how hard I tried I still couldn't match their speed. I believed that they had the special ability to move their tongue and lips incredibly fast. In addition, although several English teachers tried to teach me how to pronounce the final "l", I made "eo" sounds all the same. I was frustrated and convinced that after a certain age, learning a new accent is just impossible. Fortunately, I stared to take American Accent Training. I was amazed by all those brilliant techniques that are so easy to use and so effective. Ever since I started practicing the Reduced Sounds Exercise, like a miracle, the "speed" was no longer a problem. A week later, I was astonished to find out that not only my accent had significantly improved but also I could understand Americans much better. And with my instructor, I have learned to pronounce the final "l" properly in just a few minutes although I still couldn't hear the difference between "l" and "eo". I've tried almost every pronunciation book on the market, this one is definitely far superior than any others, it teaches much more than pronunciation. And it would be nice if there are also digital versions. By the way, I think the publisher, BARRON'S, really should have hired a book designer. Review: Pretty good - I purchased AAT to help a couple of ESL students who have excellent English comprehension, but need extensive work on conversational English. This program is a great supplement. It provides a multitude of explanations and drills to improve non native American English. I especially like the practice exercises on slurring words together and the mini lessons on things like the silent w at the beginnings of words. Strong points: It's very well organized. Specific lessons targeting aspects of pronunciation are easy to find, as are the corresponding CD tracks. The chapters addressing ethnic specific difficulties with American English have been invaluable to my students and me. Weak points: I'm working with this program in a classroom, and am able to sort through the plethora of information presented. It's all good stuff, but I think it would be confusing, if not overwhelming for the average ESL student to use alone. It's second nature for a linguist to identify sounds using the technical terms, but it's a bit bewildering for the rest of us, who just want to be understood when we talk! If you're a teacher, you'll want to supplement this book with listening exercises, tongue twisters, and reading aloud, but it's a great framework for improving American English. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #874,006 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,265 in English as a Second Language Instruction #1,865 in Foreign Language Instruction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 324 Reviews | ## Images ![American Accent Training with 5 Audio CDs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41I-kHZbEaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant!

I needed to learn how to pronounce words correctly and fluently. In Malaysia, people do speak English but mix it with different dialects which confuses the language. After using this book, it dramatically increased my fluency in English. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/244966-american-accent-training-with-5-audio-cds](https://www.desertcart.in/products/244966-american-accent-training-with-5-audio-cds) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
