EP06 - Two approaches to accent modification: Traditional and Functional

AccentOutLoud

Sharing my thoughts on how to approach accent modification and what are two ways to approach the issue. by better having an understanding of how to approach accent modification as a whole, you can better understand the impact of approaching accent modification in one way or another. The traditional method builds a foundational understanding of sound production, manner of articulation, and placement to ensure you have an understanding of the sounds involved. The other method is to choose functional words you use on a daily basis and targeting those specific sounds and words to ultimately alleviate frustrations in communication that currently impact your communicative success.
