Jan 31 2018 blog topic

Howdy,

Sorry that this is late. There have been technical issues. Here is the topic. Enjoy!


1) Do you think it is important to reduce your accent?
2) Have you had any bad experiences because of your accent? Have you judged someone else?
3) Do you think accent reduction is even possible?
4) In class we do pronunciation, do you think that is accent reduction? What's the difference?
5) Have you been judged or judged someone for something cultural and hard or impossible to change? eg. food preferences, hair, skin colour, voice tone, etc.

You can try watching it one more time too, if you have trouble understanding it.


See you in class!

If you missed the link or need to watch it a third time, that is okay!
