The strength of this course is the specificity…
The strength of this course is the specificity. Dr. O. diagnosed and ranked prominent issues that I have and tailored the self-practice course to address my most prominent flaws. Excellent!
FIVE STARS COURSE!
I worked with Dr.Catherine Ojakangas over a 16-week period. I felt that Dr. Ojakangas was very committed to helping me reach my goals to improve my English pronunciation. Her methodology is very effective. She helped me realize various pronunciation mistakes that I was completely unaware of. Most importantly, she taught me the correct pronunciation and gave me exercises to help with the learning process. I definitely recommend Dr. Ojakangas for those who want to reduce their accent and speak more confidently!
It was a correct choice to take this course!
” This was the first time in my life to learn native English so systematically. After learning essences such as the IPA, word intonation and word linking, I realized that my speaking skills in English, as well as the listening skills, improved steadily. I am quite sure that this course was my concrete step to becoming a proficient English speaker. I think this course is extremely recommended to Japanese people who are struggling to master the English spoken language.”
Catherine tailored the course to meet my needs…
“I explained to Dr. Ojakangas that what I needed was not only to learn the pronunciation, but also how to present materials professionally and in an effective way. Catherine tailored the course to meet those needs, and I think that was very effective… I’d recommend it to anyone who has come to America from another country!”
