#329 Training Your English Accent with Jesús Flórez

70 min • 18 juni 2025

Jesús Flórez is originally from Colombia but now resides in the USA, and despite not being a native English speaker, has built up his English to an impressive level of fluency. Jesús focuses a lot on accent since he has put a lot of work into getting a natural American accent.

In the episode today, we discuss a lot about acquiring an English accent and how much effort you should put into that, whether accent is important, and a bit of a comparison between UK and US expressions.
