00:18
here on YouTube. I am so impressed with my  students. When I meet my students in live classes or
3
18920
8152
00:27
in life and they thank me for helping them speak English the way they always wanted to. Natural,  
4
27072
6768
00:33
with confidence. I always think no, it was you,  you did it. And I’m so thankful students choose  
5
33840
9240
00:43
me to do this work with them in their hands. I  see how the courses of the Academy really work.

with this Black Friday deal. People who sign  up today get a bonus, a Thanksgiving bonus.

01:12
People study with me to get amazing results  for lots of reasons. Number one: they can’t  
11
72160
6240
01:18
understand Americans. The pace of conversation  is too fast to understand. I know exactly what  
12
78400
7240
01:25
my students mean. This happened to me when I was  living in the Dominican Republic and also when I  
13
85640
6440
01:32
was living in Germany. I’ve figured out what  to teach my students so their ears improve.  
14
92080

01:38
Tony says “Now I can watch English movies without  subtitles after 4 months in the Academy”. Gioria,  
15
98680
7600
01:46
an English teacher in Italy, says "Thanks to the  work I'm doing in the Academy, I now understand  
16
106280
6520
01:52
100% when I watch films. Yes, sure. I lived  in the States and went to university there,  
17
112800
6600
01:59
but believe me when I say that your method works  magic! It's made a world of difference for me."  
18
119400

02:06
This is incredible. She’s lived in the US, she  studied here, but she still needed the training  
19
126000
7320
02:13
in the Academy to fully understand what is being  said to her. You know, one of my other students,  
20
133320
5760
02:19
Arthur, gave me the biggest complement. He’s  an English teacher in Brazil, and he said
21
139080
6520
02:25
And I’ve taken pronunciation courses in  Sao Paolo, in a lot of different schools,  
22
145600
5960
02:31
in London, even at Harvard  summer school. And I guarantee:  
23
151560
6120
02:37
no other pronunciation course has  brought me as many good results,
24
157680
7160
02:44
What makes Rachel’s English Academy the right  place? better than even Harvard when it comes  
25
164840
5920
02:50
to improving your pronunciation? It’s the  method. And for me it came from years of  
26
170760
5760
02:56
teaching and realizing no one is going to  improve much from a pronunciation class,  
27
176520
5400
03:01
or from a book, or even from videos. Sure,  you’ll learn some interesting things about the  
28
181920
6040
03:07
American Accent. But your habits, you sound,  won’t change much. I saw this happen with my  
29
187960
6200
03:14
own students that I was teaching and I thought,  there’s got to be a better way. And I realized,  
30
194160
6040
03:20
it’s in flipping the time back to the student  with training materials. The student changes their  
31
200200
6520
03:26
own voice through focused training when they are  speaking. If the student invests that active time,  
32
206720
7480
03:34
they get real results. Seeing this really  excited me. The thing that I love about the  
33
214200
6080
03:40
method and the materials I’ve developed in the  Academy is students know exactly what to do to  
34
220280
6280
03:46
be successful. You know what to work on, how much  time to work on it, you know and trust the method.
35
226560
7440
03:54
Actually, I learned after starting the Academy  that the method I use is similar to one that  
36
234000
6000
04:00
people who have survived a stroke use to relearn  how to speak English. It’s a method of listening  
37
240000
5760
04:05
and repeating, and I have the right technology to  help you do that. And I’ve watched my students,  
38
245760
6120
04:11
when I work with them on this method,  improve their speaking with me saying  
39
251880
5160
04:17
nothing. I don’t have to give any comments.  The method they use with the materials,  
40
257040
6000
04:23
they start to hear it themselves. They begin to  hear differently, and then of course, it follows  
41
263040
5560
04:28
naturally that they begin to speak differently.  And they end up sounding incredible. Smooth,  
42
268600
6480
04:35
natural, connected speech. Clear stress. Some  of my students, I’m listening to them and I’m  
43
275080
6080
04:41
thinking, you’re starting to sound native.  By learning how to hear English differently,  
44
281160
5000
04:46
they’ve found a new voice. For example,  this student. Chao. She’s doing one of the  
45
286160
4680
04:50
challenges for the community group where she  records a video of some words and sentences.
46
290840
6040
04:56
Atrocious
47
296880

04:58
Passion
48
298600
1360
04:59
Combination
49
299960
2120
05:02
It was the highlight of my career.
50
302080
2680
05:04
The smoothness, the connection, the sounds.  It’s all there. It sounds native. When she  
51
304760
5600
05:10
first joined the Academy, her speech was choppy.  The stress was all even, some of the sounds  
52
310360
6000
05:16
were hard to understand. By learning how to hear  English differently, she’s found a new voice.
53
316360
6360
05:22
Atrocious
54
322720
1680
05:24
Passion
55
324400
1400
05:25
Combination
56
325800
1240
05:27
Rachel’s English Academy is full of videos where  you learn a concept, but then, more importantly,  
57
327040
6280
05:33
it’s full of audio that you train with, using the  method, to hear English differently. You learn  
58
333320
6160
05:39
the music of American English and you break  away from the music of your own language. You  
59
339480
5680
05:45
start sensing the sounds of American English  and move away from the sounds of your native  
60
345160
5600
05:50
language. There are literally thousands of  students in the Academy right now doing this.
61
350760
6600
05:57
And the best and most valuable part of  it is that you get teacher feedback.  
62
357360
6000
06:03
Maybe you’re not sure if you’re hearing  it right. You need a little guidance and  
63
363360
3800
06:07
help. We have seven teachers on  staff who will watch your video  
64
367160
4000
06:11
and give you video feedback. Have another  question? Tag them in your comment.
65
371160
5160
06:16
So all this, the courses with over 500  videos and thousands of audio files,  
66
376320
5480
06:21
the materials, the method, the community with  other students and Rachel’s English teachers,  
67
381800
6280
06:28
live classes with me, drop in hours where you can  talk with our teachers, conversation meet-ups led  
68

6200
06:55

72

06:58

74

5720
07:11
I want to show you a student who made  a big difference in his overall sound.  
75
431360
4200
07:15
This is called placement. Where in the body the  voice is vibrating. It affects every sound you  
76
435560
6240
07:21
make. And as you develop an American placement,  you’ll start thinking of it as a separate voice,  
77
441800
5680
07:27
your American voice, and the sounds  and rhythm of American English fall  
78
447480
5600
07:33
really naturally into that. This is what  he sounded like when he joined the Academy.
79
453080
4720
07:37
Hello everybody! My name is Sean.So today,  
80
457800
1520
07:39
I’d like to make a free talk video by  using the random question generator.
81
459320
3480
07:42
And this is what he sounds like  after several weeks of work.
82
462800
3480
07:46
Hello everybody! My name is Sean.So today,  
83
466280
1560
07:47
I’d like to make a free talk video by  using the random question generator.
84
467840
3360
07:51
Listen again.
85
471200
1160
07:52
Hello everybody! My name is Sean.So today,  
86
472360
1560
07:53
I’d like to make a free talk video by  using the random question generator.
87
473920
8280
08:02
Do you hear how the first one, the pitch is  higher, the tone is kind of pinched. In the  
88
482200
5080
08:07
second one, it’s deeper and more relaxed; it  sounds more natural in American English. This  
89
487280
5440
08:12
improvement in his placement will  be noticed every time he speaks.
90
492720
4720
08:17
The thing I love the most about this, is other  students who also speak Mandarin noticed his  
91
497440
6680
08:24
posts in the community, noticed his progress, and  started asking him questions. Then he made videos  
92
504120
5720
08:29
to respond to those questions and help other  students on their journey with what he learned.
93
509840
5800
08:35
I would suggest that you really  take module 3 very seriously.
94
515640
3440
08:39
Because when a student makes a big  improvement, hears something in a new way,  
95
519080
4720
08:43
feels something differently in their  body, they have so much gold to share  
96
523800
4680
08:48
with other students. They have an experience  I don’t have, and I love how the students in  
97
528480
5840
08:54
our community share so freely with  each other and support each other.
98
534320
4320
08:58
What questions do you have? Put them in  the comments below. One thing people ask  
99
538640
4720
09:03
is what level does your English need to be?  Intermediate to advanced. You’re focused on  
100
543360
6040
09:09
learning the accent with me, not on the basics of  learning English. The other, maybe most important  
101
549400
5920
09:15
question I get asked is, how long does it  take? Let’s go back to that student Chao.  
102
555320
6040
09:21
I was impressed with her progress, and I asked  how much time each day she does the training.
103
561360
6360
09:27
Can I ask you a question? How much time on average  would you say you’ve spent working on your accent?
104
567720
8200
09:35
I think everyday, 10 minutes.
105
575920
2580
09:38
Huh, that is not much guys. That is  not much. I was thinking you might  
106
578500
4820
09:43
say like half hour or an hour but it’s the  consistency of doing it everyday. Yeah. Well,  
107
583320
6960
09:50
Chao I think you’re an inspiration to a lot of  students, you just sound absolutely fantastic.
108
590280
4880
09:55
I appreciate that. I always think you as  an inspiration for us. Thank you so much.
109
595160
5440
10:00
And I always think you guys are because you’re  actually out there doing the work. So, you sound  
110
600600
5040
10:05
just amazing. I see Jambo here is commenting,  ‘10 minutes a day!’ He can’t believe it.
111
605640
4640
10:10
She is not the only student who has said this.  10 minutes a day of consistent training can  
112
610280
5800
10:16
start to make a real difference in a couple  of weeks. Most people want to stay in for  
113
616080
4560
10:20
months to reach their goals, andactually right  now I’m actually thinking of two students who  
114
620640
5032
10:25
have actually left the Academy. Al  and Shikhar. They left because they  
115
625672
4568
10:30
reached their goals. They were both in for  several years, really active and supportive  
116
630240
5720
10:35
members of the community. They’ve actually both  recorded really kind words about the academy.
117
635960
5480
10:41
Hi guys! I’m Al I’m from Indonesia. So I always  wanted to sound like a native American speaker  
118
641440
6400
10:47
but I didn’t even know how. Whenever I watch US  TV shows or US movies, I always admire Americans.  
119
647840
8320
10:56
They speak super fast and very clear. I was  so desperate to sound like them. So I found an  
120
656160
6320
11:02
accent coach and of course it was very pricey  and I simply couldn’t afford them. I was very  
121
662480
6040
11:08
sad and I didn’t even know how and so I imitated  so many Hollywood scenes as many as possible and  
122
668520
7520
11:16
of course, imitating so many scenes on movies  or TV shows without knowing the technique was  
123
676040
8600
11:24
hard like I constantly made mistakes and nobody  even corrected me until I found this Academy,  
124
684640
7320
11:31
Rachel’s English Academy and I can say that  this Academy has been my life saver and I’m  
125
691960
5920
11:37
very happy to be here and the teachers are so  encouraging and very expert they can correct  
126
697880
7240
11:45
my mistakes in the most specific way so I  could, I can just change my habit of course,  
127
705120
6600
11:51
it’s not easy to change a habit. I’m so sure  that it takes time but from time to time,  
128
711720
5720
11:57
I can see my improvements and now I can feel  so confident in my English and I really really,  
129
717440
7520
12:04
want you to also feel what I feel when you speak  in English and in this Academy, I get access to  
130
724960
6680
12:11
Facebook group. This group is super powerful, why?  Because teachers and friends are super supportive  
131
731640
9520
12:21
and I feel very safe to be myself I upload  my homework and I can be vulnerable sometimes  
132
741160
7920
12:29
and I can grow as a person and as an English  learner so come on, join us and see you soon!
133

Hello, this is Shikhar from India and I like  to share my experience with Rachel’s English  
134
757840
4280
12:42
Academy. Rachel’s English has taught me to look  at languages differently. I’ve learned that every  
135
762120
7160
12:49
language has its own character and melody. And  when we start to grasp this unique character and  
136
769280
5600
12:54
melody, we are able to acquire the language with  that much ease. What I’ve learned in Rachel’s  
137
774880
6160
13:01
English Academy is different from what I did from  her YouTube channel. It’s not just the content,  
138
781040
6360
13:07
but the tools, instructions and feedback that  you have access to in the Academy which takes  
139
787400
5080
13:12
your training to the next level. You’ll get a  lot of ear training through the unique tool of  
140
792480
5680
13:18
soundboards where you’ll listen to and repeat  audio clips several times. This will enhance  
141
798160
6600
13:24
your ability to catch sounds which you otherwise  couldn’t. We use these soundboards to practice  
142
804760
5920
13:30
vocabulary, idioms and scripts. And this goes  a long way to boost your conversation skills.  
143
810680
7040
13:37
We also have a supportive online community where  we exchange tips, strategies and feedback with  
144
817720
5880
13:43
each other and the personalized feedback you  get from Rachel and her team of instructors  
145
823600
5440
13:49
will make sure that you’re on the right track  with your training. There are more reasons to  
146
829040
4200
13:53
invest in your spoken English especially today.  Almost 60 percent of all content on the internet  
147
833240
6440
13:59
is in English. We have already entered the age of  personal branding and whether we like it or not,  
148
839680
6760
14:06
all of us have become content creators. If there’s  one skill that’s going to have the maximum impact  
149
846440
5760
14:12
on all other aspects of your life, it’s your  ability to speak effectively. Your listeners  
150
852200
5920
14:18
can’t take your communication seriously if you  don’t. When you choose to speak another language,  
151
858120
6200
14:24
you choose to sound different. If you’ve had  enough of speaking English and non-standard  
152
864320
5120
14:29
patterns and with a makeshift accent,  I would highly recommend joining the  
153
869440
4440
14:33
Rachel’s English Academy. It could be  game changing for your communication.
154
873880
4640
14:38
We offer a 30-day money back guarantee. If  it doesn’t work for you, let us know. We’ll  
155
878520
5720
14:44
refund you in full for your first month.  And your first month is only $5. If you  
156
884240
5800
14:50
have time to give to this work, sign up now.  I want you to start learning today. I want  
157
890040
6520
14:56
you to start hearing English differently.  I want you to find American placement in  
158
896560
5560
