Intonation!

from accentmaster

Today in my corporate training class, I was busy trying to convince my clients of the importance of using an up and down intonation curve when speaking. This to me is of primary importance when trying to approximate the standard English speech or even more importantly when trying to communicate clearly! Even native American English speakers do well to try to use this cadence especially when making a presentation. Think of the monotone professor or speaker. It is so hard to remain engaged or to care at all about what they are saying. This podcast will attempt to demonstrate the importance of this speaking skill.
