Hey guys! It is Aiko with Schwagirl. I am an American English pronunciation coach.
Welcome to my podcast "The Voice of English" Season 2.
Season 2 focuses more on communication. In each episode, I bring a guest and he/she will give us tips to become a better communicator as a person who speaks English as a second language.
In Episode 22, I invited Yumiko Akeba from English Boot Camp Based in Japan.
Yumiko is the founder of English Boot Camp. She teaches American English pronunciation to adult Japanese learners. She's taught more than 5,000 Japanese and her clients include actors, singers, and business leaders. Her YouTube channel has about 50,000 subscribers. Her first book, 『ネコろんで学べる英語発音の本』was published by 実務教育出版 in 2017.

Here are my notes
Do care but never be afraid of making mistakes The schwa sound (vowel) is hard for Japanese to understand Watch American movies and dramas to understand Western culture Learning songs is effective
Enjoy the episode!
