In this episode of the Business English podcast, Lindsay and Michelle discuss the common pronunciation challenges English language learners face with the V and W sounds, particularly in professional settings, and highlight how these errors can lead to confusion and hinder career advancement. They introduce their new pronunciation course, emphasizing that it focuses on clear communication across various accents rather than mastering a specific accent. The course aims to provide learners with a behind-the-scenes understanding of the English language, focusing on stress-timing and practical techniques to improve pronunciation, which includes an AI tool for immediate feedback. They use examples of sentences where V and W are commonly mistaken, offer tips on how to form the sounds correctly, and engage in a role-play to demonstrate the importance of accurate pronunciation in business interactions. The episode concludes with a call to action, encouraging listeners to join the course for a special introductory price.
