Learn to identify vowels in words, speak more effectively by using the right vowel, and learn to distinguish the vowels from each other, discovering your own patterns.
Finance & Accounting Professionals need to communicate in English on a daily basis, and if you work with the US or live and work in the US, it’s important that everyone understand you clearly. It can hurt your credibility, confidence, and ability to do your job if people either misunderstand you or misinterpret what you say. In order to be clear in American English, you’ll want to master the key components of the language.
The first step is to get a strong grasp on American vowel usage. Many non-native speakers of American English are using British vowels or vowels from their first languages, which can result in miscommunication.
This course focuses on the 23 primary spoken vowels of American English and helps you learn to identify them in words, speak more effectively by insuring you are using the right vowel, and learn to distinguish the vowels from each other, discovering your own patterns and learning best practices for how to improve.
This course also uses finance & accounting vocabulary so that when you learn the concepts of English, you’ll also learn to say the words that come up for you every day at work.
