Pronunciation check

An online English tutor can help you correct pronunciation mistakes.

Check out the Pronunciation Check feature on my site to help you discover what types of words you are mispronouncing. First, click on a link to either the BBC or Voice of America and listen to a news story of interest to you. Read along with the transcript a few times. Then record yourself reading the transcript using the recording tool on the page. Play it back a few times to listen to yourself.

In addition to helping you improve your pronunciation, recording yourself helps you with your speed and intonation. Listen to the story you chose a few times, and compare how quickly and accurately you read with what the reporter says.
