Every time I take a German lesson with a new tutor, their first impression is almost always shock. "Du sprichst akzentfrei!!" Maybe not everyone thinks it's as important, but I pride myself in good pronunciation. I try to apply it in all of my languages, but I see a lot of my fellow German learning peeps struggling, so I thought I would drop a video on it :) These are 10 or so examples of things you could improve, sprinkled with general tips all throughout. Yes, it can be hard, but it's just as rewarding!
