 Rating:  - not as good as any other texbookI have taken quite a few Pronunciation classes and used different textbooks. This one is not as good as any other books we used in class. The structure of the chapters are not very reasonable and clueless. Too many rules in books conflict with standard rules we learn all along. They may be correct, but obviously confuse people who are not native speakers. And some exercises are not well designed, kind of useless. I won't recommend this book to any non-native English speaker. It is not in the same ... Read More Rating:  - CLEAR SPEECHTHIS PROGRAM IS GOOD FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO LEARN ENGLISH. IT IS A GOOD WAY TO LEARN A PERFECT ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION. TRY IT. Rating:  - A great book for non-native speakersThe book starts from clear listening tests which made sense. Introduction to syllable(s) and sound(s) by listening to the CD is very useful, plus the pics show how the lips change when the alphabet vowel sounds are being said. Rating: - Improved my English. "Clear Speech" is the best. First, I use the text book & CD at a college, and I brought the Class Audio CDS for self-study at home. You need it, because CDs coming with Student's or Teacher's books don't include all listening dialogs. Rating: - Clear speech-teacher editionThe product contains mainly the answer key for the acutal student exercise book, and if you don't have that to refer to, it's not as useful. The teacher editon should contain the student workbook for easier reference. There is a CD that comes with it but again without being able to see the corresponding exercises in the student workbook, you feel as if you're working blind.
