I'm a native French speaker and I'd like to reduce my accent in German. I haven't found many books on that topic.

I found on Amazon: "Pronounce it Perfectly In German". If you used it, could you please give your opinion on the book and CDs?

Are there other materials you would recommend?

Thanks.

I have used "Pronounce it Perfectly in Japanese" like 10 years ago and thought it was decent.

I'm not sure if the quality is the same across all languages.

I wouldn’t recommend “Pronounce It Perfectly“ for German unless you can get it for free. A much better resource, in my opinion, is Doris Middleman’s “Sprechen Hören Sprechen: Übungen zur deutschen Aussprache.“
