The Curriculum:

Carnegie Speech programs assess your spoken English skills, and the Intelligent Tutor program selects topics and exercises to help you rapidly improve your spoken English skills.  There are two paths through the curriculum.  Carnegie BASICS is designed for students studying the basic sounds of English.  NativeAccent is designed for students with intermediate and higher speaking proficiency who want to become fluent in their speech.  When students studying BASICS are ready, they can be "graduated" to NativeAccent by their instructor or by creating a support ticket.

Your Study Habits

There is a direct relationship between time on task and improvement. To gain maximum benefit from using NativeAccent, study 30-45 minutes per day, 5 days per week. Studying 2 ½ hours one day a week is not effective.
