Xin Wang M.B.A.
I received my Bachelors in Computer Science in 1999 from the University of North Florida at Jacksonville, FL and a Masters in Business Administration in 2005 from the Tepper School of Business of Carnegie Mellon University at Pittsburgh, PA, ranked the number two MBA program by The Wall Street Journal and fifteenth by Business Week.

I was a software developer for IDS Sports from 1997 to 2002, when I was laid off. I was not able to advance in my career because of poor English pronunciation, which may have also been the cause of losing my job. (I don't know for sure, but I do know that my ability to communicate scored the lowest on every evaluation).

Like many of you, my native tongue is not English. Even though by 1999 I had been in the US for seven years, my English pronunciation did not reflect the amount of time I had been exposed to the language. I was frustrated with the situation and determined to improve my English pronunciation for various reasons and goals, one of which was to earn an MBA from one of the top 20 MBA schools.

In 1999 I started working on my English pronunciation without the help of any software. The results were poor. Books were useless because I couldn't understand them. First, I tried to learn IPA (the International Phonetic Alphabet) and reproduce the sounds of words from a dictionary. It was in vain, however, because I couldn't remember the IPA symbols for every word and didn't know the correct pronunciation of the sounds. After learning one word at a time for more than a year, the improvement in my English pronunciation was not justified by my efforts.

Fortunately, in 2002 I learned about phonics from an award winning children's TV program, Between the Lions. Learning phonics allowed me to read words without looking up their pronunciation in a dictionary. Even though the program provided some phonics rules and patterns which helped me read words, it didn't provide enough exercises for adults seeking to improve and perfect their English pronunciation. Therefore, I developed Pronunciation Patterns which uses phonics to teach and/or learn English pronunciation, helping rule-based learners like myself attain perfect English pronunciation. (If you don't like memorizing text and you do like math, then you are most likely a rule-based learner.)

Now you can download a free copy of the Pronunciation Patterns demo to determine if my English pronunciation software can help you. It is my hope that Pronunciation Patterns will help you improve your English pronunciation and achieve your goals.
