english needs contrast.

 

You may already feel that your american English pronunciation has good vowels, consonants, and basic sounds.

However, these are not enough.

Truly natural speech requires a variety of pitches: high pitches for stress, low pitches for reductions, as well as different pitch registers across sentences.

This is because, without pitch, it is difficult to know where one word ends and the next word begins.

This is especially true when using reductions, linking, and other tools for natural, conversational speech.

If you feel that people are having some difficulty understanding you, or that your speech is flat/monotone/robotic, pitch may be the answer to your problems.

So, let's explore how comedians use pitch to deliver their jokes and stories to connect with their audiences. You will hear native speakers as models, as well as your classmates and the differences between native and nonnative pitch patterns. You will have the chance to practice each pattern yourself and get immediate feedback so you can immediately change your sound in american english.

what students said about our
courses, including our other pitch
workshop, pitch apprenticeship


 



I’m required to imitate the speech and got instant feedback in how well I did or where I could improve, which I found very helpful

It was good to have spontaneous review from Geoff. I can’t wait to watch and practice again and again.

Now that I heard people speaking, I can recognize those patterns that I had learnt and that helps me to improve my speech over time.

I really enjoy taking the course.
