An English teacher from Brazil, whose name is Mayli Brasil (yes, that's really her last name!), came to LA to take American Accent classes with me for a few weeks. (that's a photo of Mayli and me.) She told me about a great new website which can help you with practicing your pronunciation. It's wonderful because it's got many video clips with captions that you can pause after each line. There is a great feature for you to record your voice after each sentence. Then it gives you a score. You can click on the individual words to hear the pronunciation or to see the meaning. You can also enter your TOEFL score and it will give you videos which are at your proficiency level.
I highly recommend this site for practicing your pronunciation! It has so many interesting videos to watch.
Thanks Mayli! It was great meeting you. Say hello to your English students in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
Here is the site. Let me know how you like it:

Lisa, it was awesome meeting and having lessons with you. My teaching will surely improve a lot and my students will love the material (your book /cds) that I'm taking back to Brazil.
Thanks for you help and I hope you have a great 2012!
Mayli
