### 5/5 — Excellent so far

*2024-09-11*

I bought this app to improve my elocution and help with learning shorthand. So far, I am enjoying the lessons and looking forward to hearing the results in a few months time. The app is clear and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Tons of sample words, phrases, and sentences

*2020-04-29*

Ideal for both accent reduction and business vocabulary building.

### 5/5 — Amazing for professionals

*2020-03-27*

If you find people have difficulties to understand you at work, you definitely need this app. It will help you sound more native like and much more professional. 
The words and sentences were carefully chosen, so you’ll be using it a lot at work. 
You can listen, then record your own voice and then compare it. 
You first focus on vowels then consonants. It’s amazing because you can learn on the go.

### 5/5 — Excellent and thorough course

*2020-03-24*

This is the only available course for elocution (teaching Received Pronunciation) with an emphasis on words and phrases used in the professions. There is truly nothing else like this available. I am a lawyer who speaks in court and have found this very helpful. 
The course is a complete and self contained elocution course which covers all of the sounds in RP, albeit with the practice words and phrases chosen from those commonly used in business, finance and the professions. It’s a very valuable resource considering what a positive difference this could make to the career prospects of those who want to reduce or loose their accent.

### 5/5 — A Must Have App

*2020-03-11*

I am Italian and I found this application extremely useful to understand why after 27 years in the UK I still sounded like an Italian. This app has explained what to change and how, with incredible results in just a few weeks.

### 1/5 — App crash

*2019-10-08*

This app crashes with ios 13
