Americans Speaking English. Is it too fast for  you to understand? Let’s make that a thing of  
0

00:06
the past. I want to introduce you to some of my  students in this video. They’re just like you:  
1
6360
6880
00:13
non-native speakers of English who have  a goal to speak English more naturally  
2
13240
5160
00:18
and with more confidence, to  easily understand Americans,  
3
18400
4080
00:22
to be understood. This is Kostas from Greece.  What was his goal? Everyone’s is a little bit  
4
22480
7200
00:29
different. Kostas is an actor. He wants to have  a natural American accent so he can get roles.  
5
29680
7400
00:37
He signed up for Rachels English Academy, he put  in time and effort training his body, his ear,  
6

6480
00:43
his voice. Right now, you can join Rachel’s  English Academy during our Black Friday sale,

00:56
Now I'm practicing this. This is a script for a play here in Melbourne,  
9
56920
8080
01:05
a wonderful play. I wish you guys could come and  see me and share the story with you, but hey,  
10
65000
6840
01:11
maybe in the future, we never,  you never know, but my point is,  
11
71840
3160
01:15
I wouldn't be able to do this play  if it wasn't for Rachel and her team.
12
75000
6040
01:21
Kostas reached this goal because of his own  dedication and hard work, but I’m so honored  
13
81040
6360
01:27
to have been a part of that. To have been one  of the resources he used to reach his goal.
14
87400
6720
01:34
and to the rest of you guys, like  myself, whatever level you are at,  
15
94120
7120
01:41
keep working hard because it's working  and I'm so happy that it, you know,  
16
101240
6240
01:47
that it's working because now I can do this and  I'm following my dream and who knows where I'm  
17
107480
7320
01:54
going to be in a year from now because now I  can pick up the script and apply everything I'm  
18
114800
7960
02:02
learning. I've learned and I keep learning and  polish my accent, you know, my pun, you know,  
19
122760
5720
02:08
my punctuation and, you know, and I just know, I  read and I know how to say the word. It's, it's  
20
128480
6920
02:15
just perfect. It's wonderful and I owe everything  to Rachel and her team. So thank you.
21

02:23
I love two things Kostas says. One, it’s work.  It doesn’t just happen. In the Academy, you  
22
143360
8200
02:31
train with the audio over and over. We show you  exactly how to use it, exactly what to listen to,  
23
151560
7560
02:39
exactly how to use the play it, say it method.  But you do have to do that. You have to put in the  
24
159120
6080
02:45
time to get results, after all, you’re training,  into your body, a new physical habit. The other  
25
165200
7080
02:52
thing I love that he says is, who knows where  I’m going to be year from now? Let me ask you.  
26
172280
7680
02:59
Where would you be now if one year ago you had  made this commitment, signed up for the Academy,  
27
179960
6200
03:06
done the work? Where would you be with more  natural American English? My students have  
28
186160
5480
03:11
reported things like, I just got a promotion at  work. My boss noticed I’ve become very easy to  
29
191640
6920
03:18
understand. Some students say, now I watch movies  and TV without subtitles and I get everything.  
30
198560
7320
03:25
Some people report just being more comfortable  with being themselves in English. I love that.
31
205880

03:32

some more students who can share what  they’ve gotten out of the Academy.
45

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

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

Hi everyone, how’s it going? I Jenny from Brazil.  I’ve joined Rachel’s English Academy a couple of  
81
552680
7880
09:20
years ago and it was a life-changing decision  for me. It helps me improve my pronunciation  
82
560560
7560
09:28
but also my listening skills. I teach Brazil and  Portuguese online to foreigners and guess what?  
83
568120
7920
09:36
Most of my students are American. During the  lessons, many of them are very relaxed at home  
84
576040
7120
09:43
or some of them speak really fast. So when they  talk, I can see the concepts that we learn in the  
85
583160
7920
09:51
Academy about placement, intonation, stress,  reductions, linking sounds and learning all  
86
591080
8840
09:59
of these helps me speak in a better way and also  understand what they say If I was asking them to  
87
599920
7280
10:07
repeat all the time so the whole conversation  gets more natural when you have to speak in  
88
607200
5880
10:13
English because they are beginners. I think  that everything you learn in the academy is  
89
613080
5120
10:18
taught in the most professional way. We can  tell that Rachel has an extensive knowledge  
90
618200
5720
10:23
of the voice and it makes a huge difference. I’ve  never been to the USA, so it’s a great thing that  
91
623920
8840
10:32
I can have this sort of American Experience from  home and I’m very thankful for this opportunity.
92
632760

10:41
Hello everyone, this is Marwan talking  to you in this video. Actually, I like  
93
641040
4680
10:45
to share my experience with you guys and tell  you something about Rachel’s Academy. In fact,  
94
645720
5640
10:51
one day I was browsing the YouTube to improve  my English, my pronunciation and accidentally,  
95
651360
6560
10:57
I saw a vlog about improving pronunciation. It  was Rachel’s teaching pronunciation. The method of  
96
657920
5720
11:03
teaching was really amazing. I loved it. I loved  the way of practicing repetition. The play it,  
97
663640
6760
11:10
say it, it wasn’t boring. And if somebody asked  me why you loved it? And I would answer him, there  
98
670400
6440
11:16
is no need to grab a pen or paper to memorize  anything. Just a practice so that I immediately  
99
676840
8000
11:24
subscribed to her Youtube channel and locked  into her website. I saw many recording videos,  
100
684840
6720
11:31
the Academy emailed me and reporting that they  were offering a discount so, I think that they  
101
691560
9200
11:40
were offering an 81% discount on the subscription.  I was surprised at this offer and I subscribed to  
102
700760
7160
11:47
Rachel’s Academy immediately. At that time, my  pronunciation wasn’t any good. I was facing many  
103
707920
8040
11:55
difficulties in excellent English words. I didn’t  know what … and syllables are. I didn’t know what  
104
715960
8080
12:04
a placement is and really I was talking like  a robot. So, the fact that since I joined the  
105
724040
7520
12:11
Academy, I’ve been able to pronounce words in  convenient way which I couldn’t do before. Now,  
106
731560
6960
12:18
I’ve been working in the Academy, I feel satisfied  with myself. I noticed I improved my pronunciation  
107
738520
6040
12:24
since I started working in the Academy. Not only  my speaking has improved. Even my listening skill  
108
744560
7120
12:31
has improved so that thank you Rachel. Thank you  for everything. And really, I would encourage  
109
751680
6480
12:38
other people to join the Academy because they will  find something here they wouldn’t find in anywhere  
110
758160
7480
12:45
else. Finally, once again, thank you Rachel,  thanks to all the teachers in Rachel’s Academy.
111
765640
7120
12:52
Hello Rachel and to all members and also the  teachers. I hope guys you are doing well. By the  
112
772760
8080
13:00
way, my name is Adelyn but you can call me Lyn.  I am originally from the Philippines but now I  
113
780840
8360
13:09
currently live in Korea. I also teach English here  and the reason why I’m here in Rachel’s English  
114
789200
8560
13:17
because before, I always get corrected my good  teacher in front with the other teachers so I felt  
115
797760
7680
13:25
embarrassed so I decided to make a difference to  improve my accent and I did research and I found  
116
805440
8200
13:33
Rachel’s YouTube channel and I really loved her  because she speaks really clear with a positive  
117
813640
6560
13:40
energy and I did a research and I found her  website and then I decided to enroll in her  
118
820200
8360
13:48
Academy so but after one month, I felt like I’m  lagging behind those materials every week she  
119
828560
10200
13:58
said it to me because I didn’t have much time to  study due to my busy work. And I was supposed to  
120
838760
7360
14:06
quit. I emailed her first and she replied and then  she said if I quit then I won’t improve at all so  
121
846120
8840
14:14
I just listen to her and then whenever I have  free time, I just go back whenever I left and  
122
854960
6560
14:21
study continuously. And then later on she changed  to system in the Academy. Every member in the  
123
861520
7280
14:28
Academy can study all those resources, don’t feel  lagging behind anymore so whenever you have time,  
124
868800
7080
14:35
you can do your task at the end of the module and  then you can post into the Facebook group where  
125
875880
7840
14:43
the other teachers also can give us feedback about  our task. So I’m really thankful for that guys.  
126
883720
8720
14:52
For you to all teachers in Rachel’s English  Academy. And the one thing I really loved in  
127
892440
5440
14:57
Rachel’s English Academy is the Ben Franklin  analysis. So, she demonstrates this one short  
128
897880
7000
15:04
clip and how the native speaker speaks because  most native speaker speaks really fast. Sometimes  
129
904880
8480
15:13
mumbling so if you’re not used to it then it’s  hard for you to understand and also the Play it  
130
913360
6440
15:19
and Say it Method and repeat listen and repeat and  match exactly what you hear so it helped me a lot  
131
919800
7640
15:27
to improve my listening skills and my accent as  well. Before, I didn’t sound like this. My accent  
132
927440
6600
15:34
was really tough but now I can notice myself that  I’m close to a native speaker although I’m not  
133
934040
7240
15:41
perfect guys because I’m still learning, I’m still  improving my accent. But I’m still, but I can say  
134
941280
6280
15:47
that I improved a lot compared before. So guys,  if you really want to have an American accent,  
135
947560
7920
15:55
I highly recommend Rachel’s English is the  best online pronunciation course to study.
136
955480
6760
16:02
Hi, my name is Dave and I’m one of the Rachel’s  English students and today I would like to share  
137
962240
9600
16:11
my experience for Rachel’s English Academy.  So, so far I’ve been with Rachel’s English  
138
971840
10920
16:22
Academy for about four months and experience  is pretty good. So my problem was that uhm,  
139
982760
10360
16:33
I used to make choppiness speech like I  wasn’t able to articulate words properly  
140
993120
8640
16:41
and it’s hard to get the idea across to my friends  or colleague but I think after I talk on Rachel’s  
141
1001760
7680
16:49
English Academy for about a month then I noticed  that my pronunciation skills improved I would say  
142
1009440
9960
16:59
tremendously especially after I learned about the  lowest placements. Yeah, that is very useful to  
143
1019400
8280
17:07
me because right now I’m actually incorporating  that skill as I am filming this video and then,  
144
1027680
10960
17:18
so before I took on Rachel’s English  I took many other English classes,  
145
1038640
4840
17:23
quite a few actually and nobody talk about lower  placements. So, after learning about this, this  
146
1043480
8800
17:32
skill is I can say is very, very, very useful.  So that’s awesome I think. And then the second  
147
1052280
8240
17:40
part about this Academy which is I like about is  that they have a beautiful and caring staff. So,  
148
1060520
10680
17:51
each time I upload uh, my video challenge  on the community group, I usually get  
149
1071200
8080
17:59
like a feedback within one or two days or so  which is very efficient in my personal exper,  
150
1079280
7680
18:06
in my personal opinion. Even though this mistake  is tiny or small, I think this is very important  
151

to me because I was able to incorporate these  small mistakes into my daily speaking habits  
152
1099160

18:29
and I think in long-term runs has a prolonged  effect in my pronunciation skills so these  
153

feedbacks are very valuable and no other classes  would able to do that I say. So, yeah it’s very  
154
1119320

18:51
rewarding actually in long term runs I would  say. And then lastly, Rachel’s English Academy  
155
1131200

has about 80 modules I think. So imagine if you  make about 80 pronunciation mistakes throughout

the course. What excited me about this Academy is  what happen, what person would you become after  
157

you make these mistakes. So, this is the best  part, the interesting part about this Academy,  
158

for myself and this. So, I think the ending result  will be great and amazing even though it’s very,  
159

19:40
it seems hard. So English Academy I would say is a  very good course and I would definitely encourage

people who has um, problem in speaking English and  study which is this course and then move forward.
