A website for improving intonation and accents

Recommend a web site for people to train their accent and intonation. The main site is http://www.trainyouraccent.com/index.htm. I copied one here for your immediate access. When you get on his site, look for Lessons on the left panel, you can select other lessons. He also has other two sites, you might want to look at them. I feel the materials he put up are simple and easy to follow, and he has excellent intonation and word stresses for us to follow. If you get over the easy ones, his other two web sites have some very advanced ones for you.

Driver's Education

Actual Transcription: On Saturdays, I am going to driving school because I want to get my license as soon as possible. During the class, we learn about the rules of the road, watch videos on traffic safety and defensive driving, and learn how to drive in different weather conditions. We also go out on the roads with the instructor and practice our driving skills. I am a little nervous because I do not want to get in an accident, and I do not want to get a ticket for not following the rules. I have to take the driving test next week, and I hope I can pass the first time.
