We had the great pleasure of interviewing one of our favorite online teachers, the pronunciation master herself, Rachel from Rachel's English. If you don't know Rachel, she's been a huge inspiration to how we teach pronunciation here at RealLife.

In this conversation, we talk about a lot of awesome stuff, but here are a few of the highlights:

• Rachel's story as an opera singer and how she started teaching pronunciation
• The importance of learning to listen and imitate the rhythmic patterns of native speakers
• Is it okay to practice your English with other non-native speakers and learners?
• Using media and repetition of native speech samples to improve your pronunciation
