Hi, my name is Marianne Jordan.
I’ve been a teacher and writer of English for over 20 years. I have written several English language learning books and am currently working on an online pronunciation guide.
I became a teacher because of having some terrible teachers myself in the past who either had their ‘class favourites’ or a total lack of interest in student’s progress or just hadn’t a clue how to teach!
I wanted to be the best teacher ever and the more I studied to be the best teacher, the more I learned that the test of this was how much your students are learning!
From then I became passionate about the way people learn and the problems they, like you, have with learning a language and pronunciation no matter what the age, culture or level of the language learner.
I, myself, am also a learner of languages. I have studied French, Spanish, Italian and Maori!
The FIRST thing to learn with ANY language is the pronunciation. There are many ways to learn English pronunciation and there are many different English pronunciations! (England, America, Canada, New Zealand and over 80 other English speaking countries!!!)…
Marianne Jordan
…At the end of the day, English is English and it really doesn’t matter whether you have a perfect American or British accent. In fact there are so many diverse pronunciations within most English speaking countries anyway that it would be impossible and totally unnecessary to learn them all!
What is important is that you are understood!
To be understood you need to learn how to pronounce the sounds that are most common in ALL English speaking countries!
You need to know that…
…Every language in the world, including yours, has a number of individual sounds to make up the words and sentences we use to speak.
Every language in the world, including yours, has a number of letters or script to write and read its words and sentences.
Some languages have sounds that always match its letters or script for example, French, Spanish and Chinese. These languages are called phonetic languages.
English is not a phonetic language. The letters ‘ch’ in the English words child, chaos, Chicago and yacht are all pronounced differently! There are SEVEN different ways to say the letter ‘a’ in English! …NO WONDER you have problems with English Pronunciation!!
SOLUTION = Learn the sound symbols in the International Phonetic Alphabet
This is how I know, for sure, that the practical exercises in my English Pronunciation Guide! to learning English pronunciation will help you too.
I have painstakingly chosen words that are pronounced the SAME in ANY ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRY.
Once you learn these sounds you will be able to pronounce ANY English word –GUARANTEED!

Solve ALL your Pronunciation Problems!
English is not a phonetic language (it is not pronounced the way it is written). I am going to show you many examples of this including this one : Did you know that the past simple ending ‘ed’ (phoned, liked, waited) is NEVER pronounced ‘ed’!!! Learn the THREE correct ways to pronounce the past simple ending and the easy rules that will help you to never make this mistake again. (Page 79)
Here are some of the problems you are going to solve
- Learn the difference between ‘voiced’ and ‘unvoiced’ sounds. (Page x)
- The FOUR different ways to pronounce the letters ‘ch’! Look at the following words – can you pronounce them? Child, Chicago, Chic, Yacht. I will show you how you will be able to look at any word containing the ‘ch’ combination and get it right EVERY TIME! (Page 78)
- Do you know there are SEVEN ways to pronounce the letter ‘A’ in English? You will learn all seven and be able to recognize the differences.(Page 77)
- In English there are FIVE ways to pronounce the letter ‘E’, again learn all five and be able to recognize the differences (Page 77)
- Learn how to pronounce other letters that have more than one way to pronounce them. (Pages 77 – 80)
- Learn all the letters (and letter combinations) that ALWAYS have the same pronunciation. (Pages 71 – 76)
- Problems knowing which letters are silent will become a thing of the past! You will be able to pronounce words containing silent letters with no more embarrassment. (Pages 81 – 86)
- You will be able to write homophones correctly and confidently (words that sound the same but are spelt differently) (Pages 87 – 90)
- Learn pronunciation terminology (diphthongs, syllable etc)(Page vii)
- Learn about word stress and the silent ‘r’ (Page viii)
I will show you many more examples of this and much more…
I’ll teach you all of the basics of how to pronounce English perfectly – from the first sound to total fluency. (This is important, as most people have at least ONE area that they’re weak in.)
I’ll show you using simple diagrams how to form your lips and tongue to correctly pronounce each of the English language sounds – Page x – xx
I’ll demonstrate how to pronounce EACH of the English language sounds on the FREE Audio CD in the book.

So why this English Pronunciation Guide and not others?
There are many other books on the market that teach pronunciation.
- Not all of them contain all of the information we have included here for you.
- Some of these DO NOT HAVE listening materials to accompany the book! (How can you learn a sound without hearing it?)
Other books do have listening materials, sold separately, adding a much higher price to the overall cost
as the listening materials can cost up to THREE times the cost of the book alone!
!FREE AUDIO CD INCLUDED!
I insisted on including a Free Audio CD with this book because:
a) You MUST be able to hear a sound to be able to learn it.
b) Over the years many of my students have come from overseas to English speaking countries to study and cannot afford the high cost of other publications and audio listening materials.
c) I am so passionate about the importance of learning phonetics to help you with pronunciation that I want to prove my commitment to you by helping you learn how to pronounce English correctly and confidently.
STUDIES SHOW THAT IT CAN BE HARD ENOUGH TO LEARN SOMETHING – AND EVEN HARDER TO CORRECT INCORRECT LEARNING!
Learn correctly the FIRST time, and you will not have to unlearn your mistake and relearn the correct way.
