    Your video helped me very much, in just a few minutes of being thoughtful about my tongue posture my 's' sound is almost not sharp at all. I'll keep on practising, thank you!

    Thanks so much for this video... I'm struggling with this ssssssso much... lately I've been thinking it cud be dental issues as I have an overbite on the left side of my teeth... so I habitually pronounce my "s" and "z" on the right side of my teeth... I even got teeth aligners ealir this month but I think it made my overbite worse so I stopped using it after 2 weeks
    Also I'm not even sure if its mind over matter... I started noticing this about 2 years ago, at the time it wasn't as worse as it is now and now its so much worse coz I keep focusing on it...
    Anyway, thanks for the video, I will try the exercises, I hope they help, I literally feel so hopeless ryt now

    I think the "S" sound is called Silibance (I always like the term because it gives you something to google later :D)

    I have just had all my teeth pulled and have had a procedure called All on 6 put in my mouth to replace my teeth.
    Since having that done (2 weeks ago) the inside of my mouth is totally different and I have a bit of a lisp and struggle with some words.
    I have always been been a bit if a lazy speaker which I think has made things a bit harder now.
    My speech is improving on a daily basis but with just watching a few hours of your videos its really helping speed things up :)
    Great stuff 👌

      Oh that’s sounds really difficult. Good on you for getting on with it and persevering. I’m glad to be of use. Keep me updated on your progress won’t you?

      @@ImproveYourVoice I have been without my back teeth for about 15 years so trying to get used to having a full mouth of teeth is proving tricky 🙈
      I think my tongue is catching them in places now causing distortions in my words but immediately after doing your tongue exercises I could feel/hear an improvement so going to stick with the exercises.
      I am trying to work out where and how I am having probs with certain words then retraining my mouth and tongue to correct it.
      I had all my teeth fixed to improve my confidence but that has now been knocked with my speech but at least I have a nice smile and would do well in a silent movie 😁🤣
      Its still very early days and I am determined in time to be able to speak clearly again.
      Will keep you updated with my progress and which techniques help.
