This week, you're gonna get a lot of marketing about Black Friday.

This consumer event is linked to the Thanksgiving holiday in the US and it's the biggest retail day of the year.

Pretty much anybody who sells anything is going to be having a sale this week.

In fact, if I see something that I like during the year and it's expensive and I don't need it immediately, I put it on my list.

So specifically to buy it on Black Friday, the deals are that good.

For example, I kind of love this leopard cashmere sweater from Bowden, but

you can be sure if I buy it, it will be on Black Friday.

Yes, even I am going to offer you a Black Friday sale that you cannot and should not resist.

But in this video, I also want you to learn about the natural cadence of spoken English.

I want you to learn about the music of the American accent.

So today, we're going to do a full pronunciation analysis of part of my pitch for why you should join the Academy.

So not only are you going to be convinced that this is the best place for you to work on your American accent, you're also going to be working on your accent.

When we study spoken English this way, you really start to get a feel for the flow and how words link together the rhythm and the melody of English.

Then we'll do a full pronunciation analysis of part of it.

Training in Rachel's English Academy will absolutely undoubtedly improve your American English pronunciation and your fluency in speaking English.

It's different from everything you've tried before in accent reduction for one simple reason.

We treat it not as language learning, but as physical habit training.

We approach it like a pianist learning a huge and difficult piece.

We call them micro skills, and we train them over and over.

You master one section or one micro skill and you move on.

It takes time, but the end result is you've mastered this hugely complex physical habit.

You don't need to think when you come here.

I've broken everything down into micro skills.

I've put together the training for each one so you have enough repetitions to build the habit.

My most successful Students train around 20 minutes a day.

Though, honestly, many of them do more than that because they're so motivated by the lessons and the results.

And right now, for this week only, we're offering up to 70% off.

I am 99% sure that's better than the deal I can get on that cashmere sweater.

Rachelsenglishacademy.com Come see for yourself what this habit training can do.

Okay, before we get into the analysis, I want to share a video that a student shared with me.

He takes his job really seriously and has studied English at many institutions, including Harvard.

He found the course and the lessons that worked the best for him.

That's our most common words course and got real results.

I'd like to say that through Rachel's exercises, my connected speech has been improving I lot.

In fact, I've just arrived from New York city and Washington, D.C.

and could notice how much better my ears are.

And now at the hotel, for instance, I would practice with Rachel and Tom, the most common words for 20, 25 minutes before I left the hotel.

And my muscle memory worked better, my speech organs worked better, just as if I had been to.

I'm professionally demanding, and I think I should be.

And I've taken pronunciation courses in Sao Paulo, in a lot of different schools in London, even at Harvard summer school.

And I guarantee no other pronunciation course has brought me as many good results and as much enthusiasm to practice.

Because it's interesting, especially the most common words.

The Academy has been producing results that.

Because I get up and I feel like practicing the most common words.

In a nutshell, I highly recommend Rachel's Academy.

I will always be deeply grateful for my students, like Arthur, who share their experiences with me.

Now, let's take part of that pitch and do a full pronunciation analysis.

Rachel's English Academy has over 250 lessons like this, where we do an analysis together and then I give you the training materials to to break it down into micro skills so you can repeat it so many times.

You get it into your body, into your habit, so you can speak with an effortless natural sound.

Training in Rachel's English Academy will absolutely, undoubtedly improve your American English pronunciation and your fluency in speaking English.

Let's listen to the first part of this phrase, training in Rachel's English Academy.

There are so many things to study in this little part of a sentence.

The first thing I want to point out is the TR cluster that is being pronounced as a chr.

That's the most common way to pronounce the TR cluster.

And don't forget that R. Don't leave that out.

The way we stress a syllable in American English is there's a pitch change.

It all flows together and we have different up, down shapes of the voice as we go.

Remember, a pitch change, just like over here, is how we stress a syllable along with length.

So let's look here at all of our pitch changes.
