In this course, youâll practice the sounds of American English that might sometimes be confusing. You'll practice both consonant and vowel sounds. Youâll also learn about the things that give English its special âmusic,â such as how to stress the right syllable in a word, how to make your voice go up and down in a natural-sounding melody, and how to naturally connect sounds and words. Learning these things will help you speak more clearly and make sure that others can understand what you're sayi
