524. Do you need to reduce your accent? What that really means
About this episode
Hadar Shemesh discusses the differences between reducing an accent, acquiring a new accent, and speaking with clear pronunciation, while debunking the myth of accent reduction.

I'll share my story, why "accent reduction" is actually a myth, and what really matters, depending on your personal goals.
