\"\"If you had to choose between having a great vocabulary and grammar or having a great accent, which one would you pick?<\/p>

We all have a lot of great friends from different nationalities. They are very educated and skilled. They are IT professionals, doctors, engineers and some are students.<\/p>

One thing you’d notice is that a lot of them have a great vocabulary and even better grammar than an average American.<\/p>

But there’s a reality that we must accept, if we want to be extremely successful.<\/p>

Today, we live in a world that image and presentation is everything.<\/p>

We live in a world that style is far more important than substance. We live in a world that presentation is more important than contents.<\/p>

Most educated people are not used to this, because they are engineers, doctors, and other professionals who solve problems and value real substance, not appearances and presentations.<\/p>

The hard reality is that if you are giving a presentation at work or you are on a date, nobody is going to say:<\/strong><\/p>

“Oh, I am so impressed with your vocabulary and how you follow grammar rules”…<\/p>

But they will be very impressed when you speak fluently and with proper accent.<\/p>

Most non-natives focus too much on vocabulary and grammar, because it’s more methodical to learn. You follow certain rules and you get it right.<\/p>

But that’s not where the real benefit is.<\/p>

Try to improve your accent and the reward will be 10 times more.<\/p>

If you have learned English as a second language, chances are you are educated and smart. So you have nailed the substance already… now focus on accent.<\/p>

The good news is that average Americans have a small vocabulary and they keep using the same expressions over and over on daily basis.<\/p>

All you have to do is to say these limited expressions with proper accent like Americans do.<\/p>

And you can do that when you do it naturally and subconsciously.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
