Лучшие отзывы о курсе CONSONANTS OF AMERICAN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION
Great Program! We can learn the correct way to pronounce all of the consonant sounds. And with plenty of opportunities to practice, we can identify the sounds that we need to improve on.
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 love this course. It helps me better understand and pronounced the different sounds of the american english pronunciation.
First, I would thank my teachers and Coursera, who contributed to my life with milestones and helped me a lot with the course.
