  • The pronunciation of English words is notoriously challenging. You can learn English with this video and get detailed pronunciation guidance for the 10 most common English words. This video is the first in a series that will teach you the pronunciation of the 100 most common English words.
    As you learn English (American English) your exact pronunciation of English words is what determines how much you will sound like a native speaker. Many teachers do an injustice to pronunciation training by slowing down their pronunciation of English words. Teachers do this reflexively. Their aim is to help you learn English more quickly by slowing down their pronunciation in their training materials. They have the best of intentions as they slow down their pronunciation so that you can learn how English words sound.
    But American English is not spoken that way. If you want to learn American English pronunciation, it’s not just about the English words themselves. You need to hear and understand the pronunciation of native American English speakers and attempt to learn English not in a slow, methodical way, but rather in the manner that American English speakers themselves have learned pronunciation (i.e. Your pronunciation of English words needs to incorporate frequent reductions, contractions and the unique vocal placement of American English).
    This video (and the entire Rachel’s English collection) is devoted to helping you learn English pronunciation. I’ve been devoted to helping you improve your pronunciation for years! I’m not new to this. My passion is helping you improve your American English Pronunciation and this video starts at the top: teaching you the exact pronunciation of the top 10 most common English words!

    Rachel, I too have been teaching ESL for a long time and when I discovered your lessons I know that you knew what you were talking about. You have the most concise and complete set of instructional videos I have ever seen/heard. Linguistically correct and fully explained in real life examples, graphic and dynamic illustrations, and well rounded. When I want an authoritative explanation - direct and to the point - I know I will get one from you.

    This is uncanny. A few hours ago I was going through my 1000 most common English word list to check up on my pronunciation and I find this video uploaded just as I logged in on CZcams. I've been practicing the techniques that I've learnt from the how-to playlist for a few weeks now and this upload was just in time. As an ESL student, I really appreciate the quality work you've been doing on this channel. Wishing Rachel's English greater success in future.

    Rachel, you are an amazing teacher, I think you're the best English teacher I've ever seen, your teaching style and strategy is definitely way better than any other I've seen in the past.
    I don't use to leave comments on CZcams videos, (and I spend a lot of time watching videos on CZcams) I use to do it only when I really think that the person who made the vídeo has done a great job and that is what you have done here and several times before.
    I really hope you read my comment, since I'm very grateful for the help I've gotten from you and the improvement I've had with my English.
    Keep up the good work Rachel ☺☺☺

    @hannanice6636 Před 6 lety +9

    Thank you Rachel! I liked this les son. I believe it's hard to stay focused on making reductions while stressing words and dealing with intonation! That's a lot of work! And the deal is that if you don't master these reductions they slow your speech down and sound unatural!

    • @marydc6147
      @marydc6147 Před 6 lety +1

      From my experience it is really hard. I have been trying for months. I can't reduce function words or say them as quickly as I can. It's really frustrating. I'll try until I get the rhythm and intonation.
