    AMIDEAST welcomes you dear student to this online course. Below, you can find details, guidelines, and instructions for your best studies. We look forward to the best results from you

    This is a skills-based course for learners with advanced English proficiency. It is designed for students who wish to improve their pronunciation and accent and boost their language fluency through practice on a wide range of activities.

    By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

    1. Give presentations and solicit discussions without interrupting the flow of their speech.
    2. Recognize and modify their own pronunciation and intonation problems.
    3. Understand verbal cues in speaker attitude and tone.
