This is one of the single most important lessons you'll ever watch about American English pronunciation and it will help you learn 1) why American English sounds the way it does and 2) how you can sound American, like a native speaker. We'll look at the jaw, tongue, throat, and lips, and how you can shift out of your native language's mouth posture into an American English mouth posture. In the process, we'll also address the issue of "voice placement" and "speaking from the chest".
