Find a New Friend and Practice English Together

Happy Holidays from Accent Reduction Miami.  Accent Reduction Miami offers group classes and private coaching at the Speech and Accent Academy.  Our free group on meetup.com meets once a month for networking events; tips on how to improve your English and presentation skills; and we go on adventures to restaurants, free concerts, movies, cultural events, book fair, lectures, and more. 
This month, we had our Christmas party in North Miami featuring a special guest speaker, syndicated radio talk show host and author Alberto Sardinas.  He spoke about his heartwarming radio show, his new book, and how he reduced is accent for radio working with his coach, me!  Alberto, as a radio broadcaster, needed to have that clear, articulate English that radio announcers need.  He was able to correct the typical 'Spanish speaker' habits, and dazzled us all with his voice.  His stories from his new book "The Power of Your Story" touched our hearts, and were so moving that I had tears in my eyes a few times.  His book not only inspires you with his stories, but each story has a "Takeaway" lesson, and a worksheet to help you find the power of YOUR story.  I think his book is changing my life, and I'm so proud of him in the progress he has made in articulating like a native speaker in English!
