Review

"Simply studying every day or at least three times per week, for 15 minutes, you will be able to speak better English, with a smooth accent. Inglés ÂQué buen acento! is the course that will help you solve your problems of pronunciation and get rid of your strong accent." -- Acento Latino newspaper

Qué bueno que ya aprendió el inglés; pero me imagino que le molesta un poco su fuerte acento e incluso se acompleja cuando las personas le hacen una expresión como si no le estuvieran entendiendo. Si le sirve de consuelo, muchos viven lo mismo. ¿Y qué piensa cuando muchos latinos hablan el inglés con un sutil acento, como si llevaran muchos años viviendo en los Estados Unidos? Es cierto que muchos, es porque llevan años y años en los Estados Unidos, pero hay los que tienen muy buen oído y los que han trabajado y estudiado mucho por mejorar su pronunciación. Y... ¿cómo se logra esto? Pues "echándole ganas", como dicen mis amigos mexicanos. Simplemente estudiando todos los días o por lo menos tres veces a la semana, durante 15 minutos, usted podrá hablar el inglés mejor y con suave acento. Inglés ¡Qué Buen Acento!, es un curso que le ayudará a solventar los problemas de pronunciación y el fuerte acento, a un precio de $24.55. Este curso fue realizado por el peruano Santiago Reynaga, un reconocido profesor de idiomas e intérprete profesional. -- Acento Latino newspaper


Product Description

FINALLY THERE'S AN AUDIO COURSE TO HELP NATIVE SPANISH SPEAKERS ACHIEVE PERFECT AMERICAN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION! Inglés ¡Qué buen acento! is the new English pronunciation system for Spanish speakers who want to lose their foreign accents fast. It is written specifically for Spanish speakers by ESL instructor Santiago Reynaga. Inglés ¡Qué buen acento! offers a simple and effective way to start speaking more clearly and so much like a native that people will no longer ask about your accent. It’s gone! This easy-to-use system includes a 126-page book, 95 minutes of audio material on two CDs, plus a handy carrying case. Take it with you in the car, on the bus or train. Take it to work. Lose your accent during lunch break! Inglés ¡Qué buen acento! is ideal for self-study and for classroom use. Use the Inglés ¡Qué buen acento! system to master all English vowel and consonant sounds and the phonetic symbols that go with them. Hear the difference between Spanish sounds and English sounds. Pronounce any English word without an accent! Inglés ¡Qué buen acento! is complete. There are no extras to buy. The system includes: * Two audio CDs with the voice of author Santiago Reynaga as well as four native speakers of English.
* An explanation of every major sound in the English language. And many examples.
* A comparison of the English sounds with the similar Spanish sound. How do English and Spanish pronunciation differ? Which English language sounds are “traps” for Spanish speakers?
* Each chapter on sounds includes the “Listen & Compare” section. Hear the difference on CD. Then repeat the English pronunciation. You said it. You did it. Congratulations!
* Lessons on advanced aspects of pronunciation, including all the nuances that identify a native speaker of English. Know the difference between strong and weak forms. Master the contractions of everyday conversation. Talk like a native, sound like a native speaker of English!
* A section on tongue-twisters and how to untangle them. Readings that target the specific sounds that can give you away as a Spanish first-language speaker and not a native speaker of English.
* A handy glossary of “false friends” (falsos amigos). Learn these and stop being “embarrassed” by your mistakes in English!

5.0 out of 5 stars Nuevo manual de pronunciación inglesa indispensable para los hispanohablantes, July 15, 2005
Esta obra sin igual es un manual de pronunciación inglesa, diseñado específicamente para personas de habla hispana. Es un instrumento realmente útil y un complemento muy necesario para las personas que están aprendiendo inglés o que ya lo saben pero desean lograr una pronunciación inglesa excelente o perfecta. Este manual consta de un libro con dos discos compactos en un estuche elegante de plástico.

En realidad no existe un manual similar en el mercado.

En él se enseñan y comparan los sonidos vocálicos y consonánticos del inglés (más o menos 44) con los sonidos del español (22) con una gran variedad de ejemplos. Hay otros capítulos que atañen únicamente a los hispanohablantes y no a los hablantes de otras lenguas, como el de los famosos "falsos amigos".

4.0 out of 5 stars I found it useful, April 5, 2009
I am retired in Mexico and volunteer as an English teacher. My only previous teaching experience had been tutoring with the Literacy Network in Lee, MA, so I am always looking for references and support material, which has led me to some expensive and disappointing purchases but not in this case.

The text used in the program for which I volunteer does not address pronunciation but proceeds on the assumption that everyone can learn to speak a foreign language by mimicry; an assumption I find untrue. This book includes explanations in Spanish and the speakers on the CD's have a clear Midwestern (6:00 o'clock national news) accent (I am from the South), so it has worked very well in the introduction of the material.

The jury is out on whether my students can improve their accents from the material as I just began using it but I am hopeful.

3.0 out of 5 stars "Es bueno para quienes lo vamos olvidando...", April 11, 2007
By Carlos Leiva "jgdc" (Caracas, Venezuela) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
En realidad a veces se olvidan algunas reglas en la pronunciación y no necesariamente con las peliculas en su idioma original se obtiene una adecuada pronunciación (demasiados slams).., por lo tanto por el precio y el producto.: Es bueno..!!
