GOOD TO KNOW
Questions?
Who is Vocal Edge for?
For adults who already speak English and want to improve their pronunciation. You’ll work on individual sounds, word stress and everyday speech, at your own pace.
Do I have to change my accent?
You decide how much you want to change. The lessons use American English as a reference and focus on helping you be understood more easily and feel more comfortable speaking.
What happens in a lesson?
You’ll listen to examples and record a few short phrases. The app gives you pronunciation feedback for your next attempt. Some lessons also include visual guides to mouth and tongue position.
How much time do I need?
About five minutes per lesson. The course has 30 lessons across six topics, with review for the parts that need more practice. You can repeat a lesson or spend longer on it.
Is this a full English course?
Vocal Edge focuses on pronunciation and speaking. Use it alongside any grammar, vocabulary, reading or writing practice you’re already doing.
When can I get the app?
We’re preparing the iPhone app for release. You can try a sound guide here now; we’ll add the App Store link when it’s available.
