Why is speaking English so hard?

Many people successfully learn to read and write English, but still struggle to speak English. Why? 

  • Spoken English is very different from written English
  • Our adult brains stop us from hearing new language sounds. Literally.
  • As a result, the standard English teaching method of “listen and repeat” usually fails

Blue Canoe is the first effective app to solve this challenge!

Proper English pronunciation is hindered by people being misled by spelling and by not speaking with proper rhythm.

The Color Vowel® System is a proven, revolutionary method to improve your spoken English, used by teachers for 20+ years to help more than 1,000,000 people. And now directly available to learners through Blue Canoe.
