the past. I want to introduce you to some of myĀ  students in this video. Theyā€™re just like you:Ā Ā

non-native speakers of English who haveĀ  a goal to speak English more naturallyĀ Ā

to be understood. This is Kostas from Greece.Ā  What was his goal? Everyoneā€™s is a little bitĀ Ā 
4
22480

00:29
different. Kostas is an actor. He wants to haveĀ  a natural American accent so he can get roles.Ā Ā

00:37
He signed up for Rachels English Academy, he putĀ  in time and effort training his body, his ear,Ā Ā

9
56920
8080
01:05
a wonderful play. I wish you guys could come andĀ  see me and share the story with you, but hey,Ā Ā 
10
65000
6840
01:11
maybe in the future, we never,Ā  you never know, but my point is,Ā Ā 
11
71840
3160
01:15
I wouldn't be able to do this playĀ  if it wasn't for Rachel and her team.
12
75000
6040
01:21
Kostas reached this goal because of his ownĀ  dedication and hard work, but Iā€™m so honoredĀ Ā 
13
81040
6360
01:27
to have been a part of that. To have been oneĀ  of the resources he used to reach his goal.

02:23
I love two things Kostas says. One, itā€™s work.Ā  It doesnā€™t just happen. In the Academy, youĀ Ā 
22
143360
8200
02:31
train with the audio over and over. We show youĀ  exactly how to use it, exactly what to listen to,Ā Ā 
23
151560
7560
02:39
exactly how to use the play it, say it method.Ā  But you do have to do that. You have to put in theĀ Ā 
24
159120
6080
02:45
time to get results, after all, youā€™re training,Ā  into your body, a new physical habit. The otherĀ Ā 
25
165200
7080
02:52
thing I love that he says is, who knows whereĀ  Iā€™m going to be year from now? Let me ask you.Ā Ā 
26
172280
7680
02:59
Where would you be now if one year ago you hadĀ  made this commitment, signed up for the Academy,Ā Ā 
27
179960
6200
03:06
done the work? Where would you be with moreĀ  natural American English? My students haveĀ Ā 
28
186160
5480
03:11
reported things like, I just got a promotion atĀ  work. My boss noticed Iā€™ve become very easy toĀ Ā 
29
191640
6920
03:18
understand. Some students say, now I watch moviesĀ  and TV without subtitles and I get everything.Ā Ā 
30
198560
7320
03:25
Some people report just being more comfortableĀ  with being themselves in English. I love that.

Hi, my name is Arthur, Iā€™ve been an EnglishĀ  teacher for about 40 years in Brazil and Iā€™dĀ Ā 
46
306920
6600
05:13
like to say that Rachelā€™s exercises, my connectedĀ  speech has been improving a lot. As a result,Ā Ā 
47
313520
7760
05:21
my studentā€™s English has been improving a lot too.Ā  Can you imagine? I get better, they get better.Ā Ā 
48
321280
7840
05:29
I even downloaded some of the most common wordsĀ  and they repeat it after Rachel and Tom. Usually,Ā Ā 
49
329120
8960
05:38
teenagers and very bored and they donā€™t likeĀ  repetitions and they loved it and they canĀ Ā 
50
338080
7160
05:45
notice that they get better too. Iā€™ve been goingĀ  to the USA since 1980. In fact, Iā€™ve just arrivedĀ Ā 
51
345240
7560
05:52
from New York City and Washington DC and I couldĀ  notice how much better my years are. My speechĀ Ā 
52
352800
7080
05:59
organs too. And now at the hotel for instance,Ā  I would practice with Rachel and Tom the mostĀ Ā 
53
359880
8280
06:08
common words for 20 or 25 minutes before I leftĀ  the hotel. And my muscle memory worked better,Ā Ā 
54
368160
9160
06:17
my speech organs work better just as if I hadĀ  exercised at a gym not at an academy. You see,Ā Ā 
55
377320
9840
06:27
I had the impression that when you practice theĀ  most common words before, you are sent out intoĀ Ā 
56
387160
6360
06:33
the day, when the day embraces you, you are muchĀ  more prepared. Thatā€™s the impression I had. Iā€™mĀ Ā 
57
393520
7960
06:41
professionally demanding and I think I should beĀ  And Iā€™ve taken pronunciation courses in Sao Paolo,Ā Ā 
58
401480
9120
06:50
in a lot of different schools, in London, even atĀ  Harvard summer school. And I guarantee: no otherĀ Ā 
59
410600
9040
06:59
pronunciation course has brought me as many goodĀ  results and as much enthusiasm to practice becauseĀ Ā 
60
419640
10400
07:10
itā€™s interesting especially the most common words,Ā  I loved them, I talk a lot about them. No other,Ā Ā 
61
430040
7880
07:17
no other course. The academy has been producingĀ  results that no other course, no other school,Ā Ā 
62
437920
7920
07:25
no other exercises, because I get up and I feelĀ  like exercising the most common words. In aĀ Ā 
63
445840
7600
07:33
nutshell, I highly recommend Rachelā€™s Academy.Ā  Congratulations Academy and team. Bye bye.

Hi everyone, so at the time spent with Rachelā€™sĀ  English Academy, I have seen a huge improvementĀ Ā 
65
463960
5480
07:49
with my pronunciation. The way I speak English,Ā  the way I understand English, the way I feelĀ Ā 
66
469440
5440
07:54
the language just feels so completely differentĀ  now than I felt just a few months ago before IĀ Ā 
67
474880
4680
07:59
started working with the Academy. Getting feedbackĀ  from the teachers, working with all the courses,Ā Ā 
68
479560
5080
08:04
imitating the conversations which are really greatĀ  because youā€™ve got a lot of audio materials toĀ Ā 
69
484640
5800
08:10
imitate real conversations between native speakersĀ  and thatā€™s really amazing. That has really help meĀ Ā 
70
490440
6520
08:16
to get a better accent and most important to feelĀ  more comfortable when Iā€™m speaking English and toĀ Ā 
71
496960
5960
08:22
feel confident with the way I speak English. So,Ā  I definitely recommend Rachelā€™s English Academy toĀ Ā 
72
502920
6320
08:29
anyone whoā€™s trying to get a better pronunciationĀ  and to improve their accent because it has reallyĀ Ā 
73
509240
4680
08:33
worked for me. After working with things likeĀ  placement and stress which are concepts that IĀ Ā 
74
513920
5680
08:39
have no idea of before joining the Academy butĀ  have a really big impact to your pronunciationĀ Ā 
75
519600
6080
08:45
when you start working with them. That has reallyĀ  helped me to get a better pronunciation whichĀ Ā 
76
525680
6040
08:51
everything that I ever wanted to speak a littleĀ  bit more clear, to be able to be understood byĀ Ā 
77
531720
5080
08:56
native speakers and that has something thatĀ  the Academy has helped me to achieve. So,Ā Ā 
78
536800
5240
09:02
I would definitely recommend Rachelā€™s EnglishĀ  Academy to anyone who has the same goalsĀ Ā 
79
542040
5480
09:07
because the Academy can really help you if youā€™reĀ  willing to put in some time to practice everyday.

Hi everyone, howā€™s it going? I Jenny from Brazil.Ā  Iā€™ve joined Rachelā€™s English Academy a couple ofĀ Ā 
81
552680
7880
09:20
years ago and it was a life-changing decisionĀ  for me. It helps me improve my pronunciationĀ Ā 
82
560560
7560
09:28
but also my listening skills. I teach Brazil andĀ  Portuguese online to foreigners and guess what?Ā Ā 
83
568120
7920
09:36
Most of my students are American. During theĀ  lessons, many of them are very relaxed at homeĀ Ā 
84
576040
7120
09:43
or some of them speak really fast. So when theyĀ  talk, I can see the concepts that we learn in theĀ Ā 
85
583160
7920
09:51
Academy about placement, intonation, stress,Ā  reductions, linking sounds and learning allĀ Ā 
86
591080
8840
09:59
of these helps me speak in a better way and alsoĀ  understand what they say If I was asking them toĀ Ā 
87
599920
7280
10:07
repeat all the time so the whole conversationĀ  gets more natural when you have to speak inĀ Ā 
88
607200
5880
10:13
English because they are beginners. I thinkĀ  that everything you learn in the academy isĀ Ā 
89
613080
5120
10:18
taught in the most professional way. We canĀ  tell that Rachel has an extensive knowledgeĀ Ā 
90
618200
5720
10:23
of the voice and it makes a huge difference. Iā€™veĀ  never been to the USA, so itā€™s a great thing thatĀ Ā 
91
623920
8840
10:32
I can have this sort of American Experience fromĀ  home and Iā€™m very thankful for this opportunity.

Hello everyone, this is Marwan talkingĀ  to you in this video. Actually, I likeĀ Ā 
93
641040
4680
10:45
to share my experience with you guys and tellĀ  you something about Rachelā€™s Academy. In fact,Ā Ā 
94
645720
5640
10:51
one day I was browsing the YouTube to improveĀ  my English, my pronunciation and accidentally,Ā Ā 
95
651360
6560
10:57
I saw a vlog about improving pronunciation. ItĀ  was Rachelā€™s teaching pronunciation. The method ofĀ Ā 
96
657920
5720
11:03
teaching was really amazing. I loved it. I lovedĀ  the way of practicing repetition. The play it,Ā Ā 
97
663640
6760
11:10
say it, it wasnā€™t boring. And if somebody askedĀ  me why you loved it? And I would answer him, thereĀ Ā 
98
670400
6440
11:16
is no need to grab a pen or paper to memorizeĀ  anything. Just a practice so that I immediatelyĀ Ā 
99
676840
8000
11:24
subscribed to her Youtube channel and lockedĀ  into her website. I saw many recording videos,Ā Ā 
100
684840
6720
11:31
the Academy emailed me and reporting that theyĀ  were offering a discount so, I think that theyĀ Ā 
101
691560
9200
11:40
were offering an 81% discount on the subscription.Ā  I was surprised at this offer and I subscribed toĀ Ā 
102
700760
7160
11:47
Rachelā€™s Academy immediately. At that time, myĀ  pronunciation wasnā€™t any good. I was facing manyĀ Ā 
103
707920
8040
11:55
difficulties in excellent English words. I didnā€™tĀ  know what ā€¦ and syllables are. I didnā€™t know whatĀ Ā 
104
715960
8080
12:04
a placement is and really I was talking likeĀ  a robot. So, the fact that since I joined theĀ Ā 
105
724040
7520
12:11
Academy, Iā€™ve been able to pronounce words inĀ  convenient way which I couldnā€™t do before. Now,Ā Ā 
106
731560
6960
12:18
Iā€™ve been working in the Academy, I feel satisfiedĀ  with myself. I noticed I improved my pronunciationĀ Ā 
107
738520
6040
12:24
since I started working in the Academy. Not onlyĀ  my speaking has improved. Even my listening skillĀ Ā 
108
744560
7120
12:31
has improved so that thank you Rachel. Thank youĀ  for everything. And really, I would encourageĀ Ā 
109
751680
6480
12:38
other people to join the Academy because they willĀ  find something here they wouldnā€™t find in anywhereĀ Ā 
110
758160
7480
12:45
else. Finally, once again, thank you Rachel,Ā  thanks to all the teachers in Rachelā€™s Academy.
111
765640
7120
12:52
Hello Rachel and to all members and also theĀ  teachers. I hope guys you are doing well. By theĀ Ā 
112
772760
8080
13:00
way, my name is Adelyn but you can call me Lyn.Ā  I am originally from the Philippines but now IĀ Ā 
113
780840
8360
13:09
currently live in Korea. I also teach English hereĀ  and the reason why Iā€™m here in Rachelā€™s EnglishĀ Ā 
114
789200
8560
13:17
because before, I always get corrected my goodĀ  teacher in front with the other teachers so I feltĀ Ā 
115
797760
7680
13:25
embarrassed so I decided to make a difference toĀ  improve my accent and I did research and I foundĀ Ā 
116
805440
8200
13:33
Rachelā€™s YouTube channel and I really loved herĀ  because she speaks really clear with a positiveĀ Ā 
117
813640
6560
13:40
energy and I did a research and I found herĀ  website and then I decided to enroll in herĀ Ā 
118
820200
8360
13:48
Academy so but after one month, I felt like Iā€™mĀ  lagging behind those materials every week sheĀ Ā 
119
828560
10200
13:58
said it to me because I didnā€™t have much time toĀ  study due to my busy work. And I was supposed toĀ Ā 
120
838760
7360
14:06
quit. I emailed her first and she replied and thenĀ  she said if I quit then I wonā€™t improve at all soĀ Ā 
121
846120
8840
14:14
I just listen to her and then whenever I haveĀ  free time, I just go back whenever I left andĀ Ā 
122
854960
6560
14:21
study continuously. And then later on she changedĀ  to system in the Academy. Every member in theĀ Ā 
123
861520
7280
14:28
Academy can study all those resources, donā€™t feelĀ  lagging behind anymore so whenever you have time,Ā Ā 
124
868800
7080
14:35
you can do your task at the end of the module andĀ  then you can post into the Facebook group whereĀ Ā 
125
875880
7840
14:43
the other teachers also can give us feedback aboutĀ  our task. So Iā€™m really thankful for that guys.Ā Ā 
126
883720
8720
14:52
For you to all teachers in Rachelā€™s EnglishĀ  Academy. And the one thing I really loved inĀ Ā 
127
892440
5440
14:57
Rachelā€™s English Academy is the Ben FranklinĀ  analysis. So, she demonstrates this one shortĀ Ā 
128
897880
7000
15:04
clip and how the native speaker speaks becauseĀ  most native speaker speaks really fast. SometimesĀ Ā 
129
904880
8480
15:13
mumbling so if youā€™re not used to it then itā€™sĀ  hard for you to understand and also the Play itĀ Ā 
130
913360
6440
15:19
and Say it Method and repeat listen and repeat andĀ  match exactly what you hear so it helped me a lotĀ Ā 
131
919800
7640
15:27
to improve my listening skills and my accent asĀ  well. Before, I didnā€™t sound like this. My accentĀ Ā 
132
927440
6600
15:34
was really tough but now I can notice myself thatĀ  Iā€™m close to a native speaker although Iā€™m notĀ Ā 
133
934040
7240
15:41
perfect guys because Iā€™m still learning, Iā€™m stillĀ  improving my accent. But Iā€™m still, but I can sayĀ Ā 
134
941280
6280
15:47
that I improved a lot compared before. So guys,Ā  if you really want to have an American accent,Ā Ā 
135
947560
7920
15:55
I highly recommend Rachelā€™s English is theĀ  best online pronunciation course to study.

137
962240
9600
16:11
my experience for Rachelā€™s English Academy.Ā  So, so far Iā€™ve been with Rachelā€™s EnglishĀ Ā

I used to make choppiness speech like IĀ  wasnā€™t able to articulate words properlyĀ Ā 
140
993120
8640
16:41
and itā€™s hard to get the idea across to my friendsĀ  or colleague but I think after I talk on Rachelā€™sĀ Ā 
141
1001760
7680
16:49
English Academy for about a month then I noticedĀ  that my pronunciation skills improved I would sayĀ Ā 
142
1009440
9960
16:59
tremendously especially after I learned about theĀ  lowest placements. Yeah, that is very useful toĀ Ā 
143
1019400
8280
17:07
me because right now Iā€™m actually incorporatingĀ  that skill as I am filming this video and then,Ā Ā 
144
1027680
10960
17:18
so before I took on Rachelā€™s EnglishĀ  I took many other English classes,Ā Ā 
145
1038640
4840
17:23
quite a few actually and nobody talk about lowerĀ  placements. So, after learning about this, thisĀ Ā 
146
1043480
8800
17:32
skill is I can say is very, very, very useful.Ā  So thatā€™s awesome I think. And then the secondĀ Ā 
147
1052280
8240
17:40
part about this Academy which is I like about isĀ  that they have a beautiful and caring staff. So,Ā Ā 
148
1060520
10680
17:51
each time I upload uh, my video challengeĀ  on the community group, I usually getĀ Ā 
149
1071200
8080
17:59
like a feedback within one or two days or soĀ  which is very efficient in my personal exper,Ā Ā 
150
1079280
7680
18:06
in my personal opinion. Even though this mistakeĀ  is tiny or small, I think this is very importantĀ Ā 
151
1086960
12200
18:19
to me because I was able to incorporate theseĀ  small mistakes into my daily speaking habitsĀ Ā 
152
1099160
10440
18:29
and I think in long-term runs has a prolongedĀ  effect in my pronunciation skills so theseĀ Ā 
153
1109600
9720
18:39
feedbacks are very valuable and no other classesĀ  would able to do that I say. So, yeah itā€™s veryĀ Ā 
154
1119320
11880
18:51
rewarding actually in long term runs I wouldĀ  say. And then lastly, Rachelā€™s English AcademyĀ Ā 
155
1131200
9240
19:00
has about 80 modules I think. So imagine if youĀ  make about 80 pronunciation mistakes throughoutĀ Ā 
156
1140440
11760
19:12
the course. What excited me about this Academy isĀ  what happen, what person would you become afterĀ Ā 
157
1152200
8720
19:20
you make these mistakes. So, this is the bestĀ  part, the interesting part about this Academy,Ā Ā 
158
1160920
7920
19:28
for myself and this. So, I think the ending resultĀ  will be great and amazing even though itā€™s very,Ā Ā 
159
1168840
11280
19:40
it seems hard. So English Academy I would say is aĀ  very good course and I would definitely encourageĀ Ā 
160
1180120
9555
19:49
people who has um, problem in speaking English andĀ  study which is this course and then move forward.
