This is an example of Fluent American's Mission: English, our daily program for helping you improve your American English pronunciation.
In Mission: English, we have a private small group with a livestream Monday through Friday that YOU can join. Each 30+ minute livestream goes over a topic related to pronunciation in American English to help expand your accent, such as stress, linking, reductions, and vowels. With a microphone and webcam, or even just your phone, you can join the stream, too! Ask questions and get live answers. Livestreams are held 30+ sessions during the month at different times to ensure that there is always a lesson you can catch.

American English shadowing exercises are for people interested in expanding their American English accents, whether you are located in the US, North America, or other areas around the world. For the best use of shadowing exercises in American English, listen to a section of audio, pause, and repeat what you hear. Try to use the same pronunciation, intonation, stress, pitch patterns, and linking that you find native English speakers use; record yourself and compare the differences.
