Islington Centre for English offers a dedicated Accent Reduction course designed for confident, upper-level speakers who want clearer, more native-like English. This English course focuses on softening strong accents, improving intonation and targeting specific pronunciation issues that can affect clarity. Using group discussions, pair work, role plays and simulated work and social situations, students practise real-world communication while receiving continuous correction from experienced native-speaking tutors. Work with the phonemic chart helps learners produce accurate British sounds and develop a more natural rhythm in everyday and professional conversations.
Students on the Accent Reduction course work through a range of practical speaking tasks aimed at real communication. They do focused drilling of individual sounds, word stress and sentence stress in short, intensive bursts. They read aloud and shadow model recordings to copy natural rhythm and intonation. In small groups, they role-play everyday and workplace situations such as meetings, phone calls and presentations. They also practise mini-presentations to build confidence speaking clearly in front of others. Regular listening discrimination tasks train students to hear the difference between similar sounds, and targeted teacher feedback helps them adjust their pronunciation in real time.
