wajsbroton Ask HN: How to Do Accent Reduction?

I'm in the same boat. I'm French and have been living in the US for 3 years and I still have a thick accent. That being said I've improved.

To make my accent more "standard" I use a combination of the Elsa Speak app (https://elsaspeak.com/) and the American Accent Training by Ann Cook that comes with audio exercises that you can download. I can't praise the latter enough.

Changing your accent is long journey that requires dedication, but I'd say that with my app + book combo I'm seeing steady improvements.
