Native speakers are less helpful at this than you might think. Speech coaches are absolutely the way to go, but they're outside the price range for most people ($200+/hr for a good coach). BoldVoice gives coach-level feedback and instruction at a price point that everyone can access, on demand.

Do you have another blog post showing your product giving targeted feedback about individual speech sounds? That's what I would expect from a coach.

You can take a language class rather than have a personal instructor. Although accents are a sensitive topic so I don't remember mine going into it much.

As someone who took English classes for years growing up, I wish that were the case. In fact, most teachers don't really know how to teach pronunciation. Also, in a typical group class setting, it's challenging to give each student one-on-one feedback. On BoldVoice, we solve that with 1) unlimited instant feedback from sound-level AI - your most patient coach. 2) in-depth video lessons from the best coaches in the world (Hollywood accent coaches). I'm a cofounder of BoldVoice, by the way. :)

Language class and accent coaching are very different things.
