Frus­trated? Mis­un­der­stood? Embar­rassed?
You are used to being able to solve prob­lems. You are resource­ful, so you’ve prob­a­bly tried read­ing books on how to speak Eng­lish like an Amer­i­can, watch­ing videos on YouTube, and maybe work­ing through a home study course.You might have even just waited, hop­ing that your accent would mag­i­cally go away. But it didn’t … at least not as much as you’d hoped.Sure, you can make your­self under­stood well enough to sur­vive, but you didn’t get the results you were really look­ing for — the abil­ity to be eas­ily under­stood, be respected, and feel con­fi­dent at work and among friends. It’s hard when you know you are well-educated but you can’t always get your point across clearly. You have to repeat your­self or won­der if the other per­son really under­stood you — or was just too polite to say anything.Sometimes, you don’t get the jokes your co-workers tell, or you miss the point of your boss’s pre­sen­ta­tion because he was using expres­sions that just didn’t make sense. You may be secretly wor­ry­ing that you will miss a job oppor­tu­nity or pro­mo­tion because of your accented Eng­lish pronunciation.You want to speak Eng­lish like an Amer­i­can, but you just don’t feel like you fit in. You are proud of your her­itage and cul­ture, yet you want to be part of the Eng­lish speak­ing cul­ture where you now live. You don’t want to give up your past, but you want to find a way to blend that with your present situation.You have dis­cov­ered that cul­tures vary widely, and you’re just not sure how to act or what to say. It’s not just about using cor­rect Eng­lish pro­nun­ci­a­tion, but also about feel­ing at ease.It’s embar­rass­ing not to know how to greet oth­ers, carry on con­ver­sa­tions, and han­dle mis­com­mu­ni­ca­tions. You just want it to be easier.
