Mastering English Pronunciation
Problem: Ineffective communication due to heavily accented speech jeopardizes safety, security, and the outcome of the mission.
Solution: Mastering English Pronunciation, MEP, based on the Ravin Method® of rapid and long term language acquisition, is a comprehensive training program that teaches foreign nationals the English pronunciation skills needed for effective communication in English speaking forums. This program demonstrates the articulation techniques required for making English sounds that do not occur in foreign languages. MEP builds English pronunciation competency while enabling people to maintain their unique cultural identities. MEP training is available in a classroom environment, via distance learning, or as a customized, self-paced software learning tool.
