How to Improve Your English Pronunciation

Clear pronunciation is essential for speaking fluent English. Your pronunciation does not have to be "perfect" -- but it does need to be good enough for other people to understand you successfully.
Consider this...
If you are a beginner and you have a small vocabulary, but great pronunciation, then you can communicate simply but successfully. On the other hand, if you have advanced grammar and vocabulary but your pronunciation is BAD... then other people won't understand a single word you say!
That's why improving your pronunciation is so important. It also increases your confidence, because you know that whenever you speak, other people will understand you.
