    Thematically the course is straight forward. The most important concepts are described and explainded. Unfortunately, the mediocre audio quality as well as the rather strong accent of the Presenter have shown to be detrimental to the overall quality of the course. Especially in the field of phonetics, good audio quality and clear articulation is to be expected. In summary: A good and well structured course, which provides great insights into the most important concepts of English phonetics.

    It is a course that helps you understand the sounds of the English language. I give it 5 stars as an introduction. However, to be a course that helps improve pronunciation, it lacks practice exercises at the end of each video, but that still depends on each student. In my case, I did exercises and practiced with Google Translate to know if I did it correctly. and the one that is difficult for me to pronounce is Sheep I say (chip, cheap, ship), anyway, let's keep practicing. Thanks for sharing this course!
