TOP REVIEWS FROM CONSONANTS OF AMERICAN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION
A very helpful and insightful course to learn the articulation and usage of American Consonants. I enjoyed this course a lot. Thank you, tutors, and peers.
The Instructor At UCI Is very Amazing , They Did a Great Job Teaching me English Pronunciation to very great detail. Thanks Cousera for this Amazing Course.
The first few weeks were very good, I got it right now, the last two were a little more complicated. I did not understand the symbols that the sounds represent.
I am really grateful for this experience. Especially, Miss Meg Parker for her clear instructions and Miss Marla Yoshida and Helen Nam for their fun practices.
