How to Use Feedback to Shorten Your Accent Reduction Timeline

Feedback is one of the fastest ways to accelerate accent improvement. It helps learners notice subtle pronunciation errors they can’t hear on their own and adjust before mistakes become habits.

1–2 weeks: Learners start identifying recurring sound or rhythm issues.
3–6 weeks: Guided corrections from recordings or a coach lead to sharper clarity.
7–10 weeks: Speech becomes more natural and automatic with fewer self-corrections.

Without feedback, progress slows because the brain gets used to its own version of “normal.” Regular input from a trained ear—such as the expert coaching at Intonetic—ensures every minute of practice moves learners closer to clear, confident speech.
