Would anyone be interested in giving feedback on my American pronunciation trainer?

Hiya! I’m a pronunciation tutor, and teaching pronunciation is truly my passion. To help with my lessons, I am (slowly) creating pronunciation practice videos for my students. I would like to improve my videos by hearing feedback from a variety of students. As such, I would like to form a “focus group” (to find a group of people who can give me feedback on my videos).

I just want to feel confident that I’m “on the right track” (that is, that I’m doing things correctly and “heading in the right direction”). Especially before I make my “R” series, I want to make sure everything is okay.

Here’s how I’m thinking it would work:
  • You would DM me your email address
  • Once or twice a month, I will send out a group email to everybody with a link to a Google Forms survey and a video. Here is an example of the survey, with a link to the video at the top. So, you simply watch the video and then answer the short survey (and all surveys will be anonymous / without your name, of course!)
  • It's hard to guess, but maybe this will last 6-8 months

In return, I will very happily do what I can to help you with your pronunciation! For example, you could send me an mp3 of your pronunciation (perhaps with the exercises from the lesson) and I will give you feedback :)

If you are interested or have any questions, please do let me know. I would be exceptionally grateful to anyone willing to participate! :)

I don't understand how learners could provide useful feedback. Wouldn't it make more sense to get feedback from experienced teachers of ESL/EFL?

By the way, I thought the AmE pronunciation video you posted was very good.
