• I love this video and use it every year with my middle school students when we talk about public speaking.  They are notorious for their mumbling and this is a fun way to get them used to really using the muscles in their mouth!  They have a great time and learn to let their inhibitions down a little bit!  Once they’ve seen it, they always ask when they can see it again.
• Your channel is such a great resource for to-be TESOL teacher like me. I greatly appreciate it 🙂

• I met Mrs. Chan 3 years ago in 930LS Adv Beg Lis & Spkg. Her Pronunciation Doctor videos are amazing. I just finished her 970G Advanced Grammar online. She’s hard working, explains well, gives useful assignments, and corrects all students’ writing. She helps us every Tuesday on campus. Now I’m confident to use English grammar. I’m proud to praise Mrs. Chan as a super ESL instructor.
• I did the online class 970G Advanced Grammar online class. The online lecture videos and all the other online sources that she gave us were so helpful. The writing assessments were hard but appropriate. When I visited her during office hours, she helped me with any problems. She is a serious, patient and wonderful teacher whom I absolutely love. I am so glad that I had her.
• Prof. Marsha is very responsible and thoughtful, corrects writing assignments very seriously, and answers questions about English very patiently and carefully in person and online. Marsha creates very impressive valuable online learning resources: videos for grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary. Take her class and you will benefit immensely, too.
• I’m very interested in studying 940RV Low Intermediate Reading & Vocabulary with this teacher. She is really a great teacher. Each time I learnt something from her web sites, I always clicked LIKE in order to thank for her efforts for my English at least.

Professor Chan is very patient and willing to spend her own time to answer all of my questions. Professor Chan is the best. Class is ESL 950PL Pronunciation and Listening.

• AWESOME TEACHER! Importance of focusing on interaction; importance of breaking speech into thought groups; new strategies to teach pronunciation; new ideas! This was great.
• Thank you for sharing your creative ideas and materials with us.
• Love her excitement about the subject matter.
• A lot of insights into the needs of ESL students and activities to meet these needs- fabulous!
• A very valuable experience!
• Using physical activities to reinforce teaching pronunciation, specifically standing up for stressed syllables and using 2 arms/hands to mimic tongue/front teeth action; great games adapted for minimal pairs.
• A variety of activities and ways of exemplary class interaction.
• What to teach and what to skip over in pronunciation; relative importance of vocab, grammar.
• Ways to use games; resources to improve my teaching of pronunciation.
• Choral practice and necessity to repeat many, many times.
• The importance of teaching stress and how it is manifested in speech; how to use games in teaching phonetics.
• Great! Informative! Fun!
• Can we invite Marsha back again?

• This is one of the best trainings that I have ever been to. Marsha was attentive and responsive. She did a fantastic job of balancing our previous experiences with what we needed to learn.
• Marsha’s visit was tremendous. We learned a great deal over the two days that she was with us. She is very knowledgeable about accent neutralization and was very willing to share this knowledge with us.
• It was excellent. The materials are very well prepared. Marsha is so knowledgeable about accents and language. She really is an expert in this area and was extremely willing to share everything she could.
• Even though I had previously taught “conversational” English while living in South Korea, I learned so much more in these two days about properly teaching pronunciation than I did in 2 years overseas.
• It was great to work with such a professional. Her presentation and training skills were excellent. The information was very appropriate for both the Argentina and the India sites.
• The videos and the book very much promote the skills that we want each agent to master. Marsha also directed us in ways to break down our scripts and terminology using the same methods used in the tapes, to individualize the training for each specific project utilizing the concepts presented in the course.
• Thank you so much for bringing in Marsha. This demonstrates how much our company supports the Training Department. For all of us involved in the off-site projects, please know how much we appreciated this opportunity.

• I feel happy to meet the cheerful and energetic Marsha chan. I can learn pronounce English with use of visual, kinesthetic and auditory. The feel was so happy. Now I understand how to speak very well.
• I’m so happy to meet excellencies and respected Ms. Marsha Chan. I’ve learned a lot about pronunciation skills. Marsha’s is super super funny. I hope, I can improve my communication skills. We love you <3.
• Learning English can be fun and engaging if you have the right strategies and approaches. I enjoyed the Look in the Lake activity. Good speaking practice for students. Now I will teach my class by focusing on the extra activities that will involve their focus, concentration and communicative skills more. I’m glad I came!
• Pronunciation has always been my favorite subject/topic. Thank you so much for your fabulous workshop on the concepts of syllable, stress, and intonation, and these wonderful activities. These make me realize how much I love pronunciation and want to teach or do research in this field in the future.
• The code for stress pattern is very helpful and interesting. I think this will help students grasp the stress-syllable easily. I enjoy each activity. It makes me active. Since Thai language is tonal, the ideas in “Learning and teaching the music of spoken English” is beneficial.
• Now I understand how music can be integrated with teaching English. I enjoy doing the syllable-stress code. I will have my students do the syllable-stress code.
• The comparison between language and music really helps to make the concepts clear and easy to understand. I really like the physical movement when learning the concepts. I want to apply them in my class. I want to look further into the differences between written and spoken syllable division.
• I learned that body language is important. I enjoyed the exercises to make you comfortable and relaxed before pronunciation practice. I can use the hand gestures to show difference between long and short sounds.

Participants in a Clear Communication class were asked to provide a reflection on the way(s) that they have changed how they communicate at work as a result of this class or to provide an example of an occasion when they communicated more clearly or effectively at work as a result of this class.

• All my co-workers and my manager knew how excited I was with communication classes. This was the most valuable class. Marsha is an enthusiastic and professional instructor. Even though I have taken many English classes before, this was the first time my accent has been pointed out and corrected. I knew exactly what my problems were. Mrs. Chan was an excellent teacher. She made us laugh. She made a very friendly classroom atmosphere. She pointed out every single word that we pronounced wrong until we got it. She helped us recognize why we were wrong. Thank you so much Mrs. Chan. We’re so lucky to have you. – I. Wong, RN Practitioner, from Hong Kong
• This class has helped increase my confidence in speaking English in the workplace. I improved my ability to pronounce some words more clearly. I love to come to work and feel ready to practice my new communication skills. In the past I was afraid to say some words. Now I have learned vocabulary that I can use to express myself more clearly. I see a nice smile on a patient’s face when they understand my words. – A. Cruz, Medical Assistant, from Mexico
• I had an incident when a patient complimented me on my clear pronunciation. She was a new patient of the Coumadin clinic. I called her the next day to confirm if she had received the message we left her the day before. She got confused because the pharmacist who left her the message spoke too fast. She had some questions also. I explained to her what her INR range was and what it meant, how to take her medication, how her diet affected the INR result, what same day lab meant. I applied the word stress and intonation I learned from class. At the end of the conversation, the patient asked about my nationality. Then she said I was the first non-native speaker whose accent she easily understood. She encouraged me to keep up with my progress. The patient really made me proud of myself and had more confidence in my ability to communicate better and clearer in American English. – P. Pham, Pharmacy Technician, from Vietnam
• As a result of this class I have improved my pronunciation and can more clearly communicate with patients face to face and by telephone. Thank you Marsha very much. You really taught this class in an enthusiastic manner and you are very dedicated. – Medical Assistant A. Tochilnikov, from Ukraine
• I would like to say thanks to instructor Marsha Chan for her clear explanation of phrases, words, and also for the book Phrase by Phrase Pronunciation and Listening in American English. I recommend Marsha Chan for future class at KP. I am grateful to KP for giving me this opportunity to improve my English. – A. Worku, Pediatric Registered Nurse, from Ethiopia
• My instructor is a professional hard worker and highly qualified person in the subject. My positive attitude towards learning made my manager ask me who else in the department could benefit from the class so he can encourage him or her to attend the class too. – E. Cho, Mother-Baby Registered Nurse, from Korea

• I took a few pronunciation classes at Stanford, but they didn’t even come close to what Marsha Chan offers. Professor Chan is the expert in pronunciation and accent reduction. She will explain, mechanistically and in great detail, how to form sounds, words and sentences so that they sound perfectly American. I took her class at Mission College in the beginning of 2012. The class was great but quite crowded so there wasn’t much time for personalized support. I therefore signed up for her one on one sessions, which really gave me a boost and accelerated my progress. I recommend these sessions to anyone who wants to make serious progress. – R.R., Quantitative Investment Manager, from France
• Marsha is an experienced teacher who has really helped me boost my English communication skills. She covers different areas, from pronunciation to cultural awareness, in a very entertaining way. Marsha’s private classes have helped me to get adapted to the US quicker. I enthusiastically recommend Marsha if you want to improve your English speaking skills. – Cesar Lazaro, Head of Google Travel Services, Google Career and Management Coach, from Spain
• My experience taking Marsha’s accent correction lessons is extremely positive. I’d been in the US for more than ten years, and I thought that my accent would fade away, but it didn’t. A few years ago, I made an attempt to correct my accent with another teacher, but I didn’t show any improvement. Now after only eight lessons with Marsha I am able to see IMPROVEMENT. All I needed was a bright teacher. Marsha was able to give concrete instructions, which when applied, made my speech sound closer to everyone else’s. As a programmer, I respond well to concrete instructions, and Marsha’s instructions are very explicit. The fact that I was able to improve when I didn’t have much hope gave me a great deal of confidence and joy :-).-  Romania
• Marsha is always very enthusiastic and energetic. She chose a useful book and gave practical assignments. When she responded to me, she was positive and encouraging. She knew when to push or how to encourage, so I would not give up easily or get away from my learning responsibilities. She worked so hard! I am glad that I chose to study with her, and I think all students should take lessons from Marsha if they want to improve their skills. – Taiwan
• My personal gain from taking the pronunciation and accent reduction from Marsha Chan has been tremendous in many respects. I found out the deficiencies in my speech and learned, with Ms. Chan’s excellent help, the method and techniques necessary to correct them.  – The Philippines
• Taking a course with Prof. Marsha Chan has been a valuable source of knowledge because she used efficient tools which let me increase my English skills. She looked for new ideas and new methods for me to understand her instructions better. She always tried to clarify my doubts and questions. She recommended where to get more information about my assignments and my weak points. She provided interesting assignments, additional help, and a rich source of information about each lesson. – Mexico
• Excellent is the only word to describe your class. I like your class and your way to teach! – Japan
• Ms. Chan was an excellent, knowledgeable and responsive teacher. I can speak only very highly of her. – Bulgaria
• Learning on-line with Marsha has been very helpful to me. I feel comfortable to ask questions, and I am very happy about the professor’s quick responses and corrections. My confidence level in writing is getting higher.  – China
• I believe that the teaching skills were above standards. Marsha was very attentive and supportive to ascertain that I would succeed and stay focused. I value her leadership skills, as well as her instructional aid. – Germany
