I'm a Japanese business man. I moved into the US six months ago and could not speak English fluently. Jeremy focused on teaching me English pronunciation and rhythm. I have studied English for over 15 years, however I have never practiced English rhythm. At first, I could not understand or enjoy it at all. Thanks to Jeremy's patience, my Japanese English like robots is improving a lot. Jeremy recommended me to record my own voice. (I did not like that.)
