Audio English course for Beginners

Hello, Mr. Torsten and everyone on these forums. I’ve already posted a message with a question concerning the first E-mail lesson in the “English for Beginners” “Unit 1” thread. But I have another question about audio lesson and since there is a different thread about audio lessons I decided to post a message here too. So, sorry if there are too much questions from me :oops:

My question is about Sue’s accent/pronunciation: what is it? I mean, in what country where english is a native language do people speak with this accent/pronunciation? Is it British?
I’m very interested in this because my accent is different. I don’t have russian accent, I’m pretty sure of it, because a lot of people with a decent skill in english language (universty/institute teachers) told me that my pronunciation is quite good. I would like to hear your opinion about my pronunciation, but unfortunately I’m not able to record my voice at the moment - I’ll try to do it later when I’m at home :slight_smile:

Oh, and to answer your question in the first lesson: Sue lives in Bristol :slight_smile:

Hi Jim,

Yes Sue has a British accent. I hope to hear your voice recording soon.

Many thanks,
Torsten[YSaerTTEW443543]

Hi IB,

There are two things you can do. First, you need to read the following: How can I improve my writing skills? As you can see, you need to develop the habit of sticking to very basic capitalization and punctuation rules.

Secondly, you should take all our TOEIC based listening comprehension exercises: TOEIC Based Listening[YSaerTTEW443543]

Hello Torsten,

Thank you for the english lessons that I enjoy taking up. I did listen to the audio," listen vs hear", and it actually helped me out to differentiate between the two though the test did confuse me a bit.
I will also follow the advice to listen to english audio/programmes regularly, I think it might help as english is not my native language (and the best way is to listen to Sue’s audio lessons as I just love to listen to her
The anwers to, “daily job activities” audio questions…
Sue works for a large financial company, she starts her work at 8:45, she enjoys personal contact with people as they come from different fields (careers) and age groups.

Looking forward to my next lesson.

regards
Tanvi. :slight_smile:
