This is the best English pronunciation course you can find online by far. I have lived in London for 12 years now and always struggle with pronunciation. I have taken a few courses before but nothing really worked until I signed up for Luke’s course. It’s a game changer! I have been studying for 4 months now and it has made such a difference for me; improved my pronunciation, knowledge and confidence enormously. This course is fantastic, easy to follow, very well structured, user-friendly, great content, Luke explains everything perfectly in short videos, it also has games with different native speaker recordings. I love the slowing down audio button and the IPA transcription button to reveal text in IPA. I also found the comparisons to the Polish language very useful. I am more aware now when my Polish accent is taking over while speaking English and can quickly correct it. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to learn or improve English pronunciation. Best money I ever spent. I only wish I found this course sooner. Thank you, Luke!

Luke’s course is by far the best and most affordable way to improve your English accent. The course presents concise and easy-to-follow exercises in a very well designed multimedia platform. The practical exercises work: with 30 min per day and within less than 2 weeks I could feel the English language flowing naturally from my mouth, and I could also see how both my colleagues and students took me more seriously. In the past, I have spent hundreds of pounds in private coaching and multiple books to improve my accent, and I have no hesitation in saying that  Luke’s course has been the best investment I have made of both my time and money to achieve this goal.

I have had the chance to study with Luke a few years ago, and am now fortunate enough to go through the Improve Your Accent online course as a learner. This course is well crafted and perhaps one of the finest courses I have seen online. It follows a similar structure and scope as the one-on-one course whilst with only a fraction of the cost. It covers almost every key element of English speaking, including the foundation of all the vowel and consonant sounds, rhythm, mouth muscle workouts and many study tips tailored specifically for learners from different native language backgrounds. The multimedia format is easy to follow and convenient to use with enhanced interactivity. Importantly, it is divided into many sections which only last for a few minutes each; this allows flexible learning either with a chunk or fragment of time. The complementary live class is another significant benefit to provide more tailored feedback to learners. This course is an excellent tool to facilitate those who are willing to dedicate time and effort to more systematically and efficiently improve their English speaking skill. I recommend it unreservedly.

For me, this course has been one of the best English classes I have attended in years. The online course is very well structured and organized, the explanations via video are easy to understand and easy to put into practice, the quizzes are entertaining and fun and the course materials are very useful. It helped me to figure out the idiosyncratic trouble spots a German speaker faces and helped me to improve my English pronunciation and get more confident within weeks. I particularly enjoyed the fact that you can decide for yourself for how long you want to take the course. Apart from that, I also enjoyed attending the online classroom. During online sessions, Luke gives helpful individual feedback to speakers from different countries for their specific needs and it was worthwhile even as a silent visitor and watch how they go about it. I recommend this course to any English language learner who would like to sound more like a native speaker and find out more about the particularities of their native language and the English language.

I have been studying English for many years and I use it every single day for work; accent-wise, however, I always struggled to fill the gap between a good foreign speaker and a native. This course is simply amazing and it’s truly bringing my pronunciation to a level I had never been able to reach before: the materials are clear, well organised, brand new in their approach and ultimately very effective. Another point I like a lot is the price: coming as a monthly fee this means that the ultimate cost of the whole course will greatly depend on your commitment and regular training, which is really fair and boils down to an additional stimulus to go on. Definitely recommended!

This clearly-designed online course is an excellent resource for non-native learners who wish to improve their pronunciation. The well-paced videos are accompanied by helpful explanatory notes which make the course accessible to all. The user can freely navigate the many playful features – including mouth animations – and choose the IPA transcription system they prefer. I heartily recommend it!

The course is well-organised, informative and interactive. According to your native language, you are provided with a structured path of mastering British English pronunciation. You are given exercises to practise not only the English sounds that do not exist in your mother tongue, but also English intonation and rhythm. Videos, animation and games are there to help you understand the materials more easily. I would highly recommend this course to you if you have been struggling to make yourself sound better and clearer whilst speaking English.

Pronunciation is one of the areas that is quite difficult for self-learning: however hard I tried, I often wondered if I was on the right track. This course, however, offers a great combination of video/audio lessons and animated mouth diagrams, which makes it very easy to compare my own pronunciation with Luke’s models. Evidence-based study tips are also provided during the course, so I’m sure you’ll keep motivated!

I am very much enjoying your course. Your method is very interesting and helped me a lot in understanding English pronunciation. The mouth workouts really support me doing it properly. Your video explanations are very clear and motivating. It’s really motivating – I am having fun with it!

Luke’s course is well-designed, well-structured, and comprehensive. The course offers interactive and high-quality teaching materials. It was nicely tailored to my native language, which helped me notice things I never thought were important – and this is something that I have been trying to find for many years. I would definitely recommend it.

I was searching for a video course on British pronunciation as I work on my accent reduction (my mother tongue is Ukrainian) and eventually came across Improve Your Accent by Luke. First of all, the programme is well-structured and addresses all the important topics such as commonly confused sounds, rhythm, intonation, etc.. Secondly, it was very comfortable to do the tasks on the website as it’s extremely user-friendly and you do not have to be tech-savvy that much. Finally, it goes without saying that the course lived up to my expectations and I will definitely recommend it to others. Thank you for such a decent product!

This course’s tailored approach makes it quite unique. It’s a real game-changer and a huge time-saver. It will quickly take your pronunciation to the next level if you put in the work. Covering all you need to know and tailored to your native language, it keeps things interesting and fun with interactive lessons, free coaching (in the online classroom) and all sorts of resources. There’s also plenty of useful hints & tips on how to stay motivated and tackle all those challenges that come with learning any foreign language. Love it!

I found the “Improve Your Accent” course material incredibly useful. Before starting the course I knew that I struggled in at least two areas: The different vowel/sounds and using them in the right place as well as consistency of accent (British, American, etc). In both areas, Improve Your Accent helped tremendously, leaving next to no questions. The cherry on top is the assessment you can purchase as well as being a volunteer in the live lessons where Luke gives you very high-quality feedback on your accent with actionable suggestions on how to improve. 5 out of 5, much recommended!

Comprehensive, well structured, and easy to follow. It helped me understand, exercise and improve lots of sounds I have studied before but did not get right. It has carefully structured and illustrated explanations and follow-up exercises. The illustrations helped me a lot, every other course on pronunciation I tried before did not have them. I also liked Luke’s open and encouraging attitude. I highly recommend it! 

Luke’s course is something that I’ve been trying to find for many, many years. Almost all the things in the course were never mentioned at my school. What I liked the most about the course is that I was taught how to pronounce a word of which I do not know the meaning. I didn’t have to learn by heart pronunciation patterns (IPA) for each word. Even though the course is in a self-paced mode I have never felt left alone. Luke was extremely supportive and explained in a simple and calm manner all the issues and problems I had or might have as a Polish speaker. I may honestly say that this course was a real adventure for me and a life changer. Thank you, Luke!

The course covers everything from muscle training to individual sounds and stress. As it’s tailored to my native language, everything I’m learning is relevant to me. This means I’m not wasting time with irrelevant material and so I’m progressing much more quickly. All the lessons provide detailed information and clear steps. Plus I love the colourful and engaging interface! I’d highly recommend this course.

I am an English teacher in Germany. I am able to speak English fluently but I just couldn’t get rid of my German accent. As I want to be an authentic role model for my students, I have decided to book this self-study online course. It is brilliant because it not only includes the background information on muscles that are used while speaking (which is also taught at university) but also comparisons between German and English speakers and how to avoid frequent mistakes in pronunciation. It was very helpful for me in order to understand WHY my English sounds so German and HOW to improve this condition.

The Improve Your Accent approach is unique and interactive. In the past, I used books, audiobooks, websites and mobile apps but none of them tackled it in such an effective way. If you don’t know your mistakes, then you will not be able to fix them. With the online assessment, Luke listed all the mistakes I made and provided me with a road map to fix them. The course is worth the investment, every single penny of it. You will realise the return immediately.

I absolutely recommend joining this course. In fact, in my opinion, this course should be a “must” for every student of English, due to the recognition of such different sounds from those in our native language. This course is thoroughly designed, easy to understand, has plenty of videos, exercises and enough information to go deeper into learning. Luke is a 100% present teacher, I mean, despite the location and time difference, he is there to answer any question

I very much enjoyed learning with Luke both via the online tool and during the live sessions. Luke is a great teacher, always with an answer and an example accompanying it to help memorise a rule. The online software Luke uses is best-in-class, very intuitive and user-friendly. I’m highly recommending the course to anyone looking for a great learning experience.

I spent a number of months taking this course. I can confidently say that it not only corrects my pronunciation, but it also helps me to grasp the rhythm of the English language. The course is interactive, which means that I no longer find accent reduction boring. I also find it helpful that every lesson is equipped with introductory videos, clear diagrams, written outlines, warm-up exercises, and mini-tests. Luke’s tutoring and his course have reduced my accent greatly. I cannot recommend him enough. 

I was lucky to study at University College London (UCL) where Luke taught us phonetics, and it was amazing. As for this course I should say that’s it is probably even better, because you can re-watch, re-listen and re-do all of the videos and tasks. What especially impressed me is the adaptation of the course for different speakers: depending on your native language, you get tailored advice for your needs which definitely speeds up the process of the British pronunciation acquisition. Highly recommended!

I’ve always been interested in improving my English accent but never found a course that was tailored towards people that speak English fluently. For me, Luke’s ‘Improve Your Accent’ course is a missing piece in the world of accent coaching. It’s a fantastic & affordable way to learn at your own pace. 

Luke’s online course is very well structured, interactive and easy to follow. It contains excellent video lessons and lots of practice material which I found particularly helpful. The weekly online classroom session is definitely a plus, and a great opportunity to get live and professional coaching/feedback on your accent. I can’t recommend this course highly enough!

Improve Your Accent provides a comprehensive approach for learning the British accent. Each lesson is composed of a set of muscle training exercises, theoretical explanations and a lot of examples and practice with audio and video. I have never seen such a visually detailed and clear explanation of how each sound can be pronounced. Moreover, the course provides you with effective learning methods to further learn the British accent by yourself, using online tools beyond the course. One of the most important things that I learned from these lessons is how to check my own pronunciation and how to correct it. I am now very sure that I can improve my pronunciation by myself.

Having Spanish as my mother tongue and having learnt English from a grammar/translation perspective make the pronunciation of English vowels (20) very challenging, e.g. the vowels in FOOT and GOOSE were identified as U by me, which is doubly wrong because they are two different sounds and different to the Spanish U! To complete the picture, we have words like POOL that contain the Spanish U. This is just one example of the many you will learn from Luke in a practical way while he keeps your native language in mind. The course not only provides you with a theoretical framework but also with many resources (videos, games, exercises…) to put it into practice. You will learn to correct yourself and tell the difference between your original accent and a native accent. Once you understand the theoretical background you can practise on your own for as long as you want to refine your accent. It is a lifelong journey.

The course is extremely well designed. With each item that is advanced there is a reference to the previous items allowing the consolidation of knowledge. In addition, the videos presented by Luke Nicholson are very didactic and well done. One of the best pronunciation courses I’ve seen on the internet.

Luke’s online course, ‘Improve Your Accent’, is extremely well organised to cover all the aspects of accent problems. I studied the course materials intensively over the past few months and became more confident in my work (which requires lots of communication and presentations in English). The course not only covers pronunciation training of vowels and consonants and improving intonation and rhythm, but also changing the settings of the mouth, a variety of unique mouth muscle exercises, and focusing on ‘the English side of the identity’. Both – but particularly the latter – worked very well for me. Online Classroom, a regular coaching session organised by Luke, was very useful. Luke is undoubtedly the best accent coach in the UK (or maybe in the world!).

In the Improve Your Accent Course, Luke Nicholson, an expert on English accents and pronunciation, shows you how to tap into your own resources so that you can communicate more clearly. I am a university professor who completed the course. However, I’ve extended my subscription for another year because the returns on my investment have been phenomenal. I highly recommend signing up for the course. You won’t regret it.

I wanted to thank you for the course and group classes. The course’s platform is very user-friendly and the content is perfectly structured. Luke’s teaching style is clear, kind and responsive to each speaker. I found it helpful not just to cover the physical aspect of learning an accent, but also the feelings that might come with it and how these can be normalised and clarified. I learnt a lot.

Can’t recommend the course enough, it was so detailed and easy to follow through! Luke’s coaching skills and information delivery is splendid!
