  • Remember, you don't NEED an RP British accent to speak English well... There are loads of accents out there! I'm just here to help people who have a love for modern versions of RP.
    Pronunciation course: www.etjenglish.com
    British English pronunciation lesson all about these two similar sounds! /i/ and /i:/ - one is a short vowel, and the other is a long vowel. All of my Skype students have a problem with distinguishing the difference between these sounds, so I thought I'd try to help you all out for free in this British English pronunciation lesson.

    I am an English language coach and Elliot does great work. If you follow his advice on pronounciation, your listening skills will get much better too. Great work Elliot! You guys are changing the face of L2 teaching and kids in schools in Italy and Spain, where the teaching is generally weak, would do better using your videos than doing boring homework.

    You're so good! One of the best english teachers youtubers!! I'm so glad I've found you. I hope I could have your accent one day but it's nearly impossible if I don't live in England. I was wondering from what part of England you are . I just know you're from the south and you remind me to those english listenings my teachers keep putting on the listening test! haha.
    Great video, mate!!

    Hello Elliott! Thank you very much for your lessons. Your accent and pronunciation are so clear, I understand your speech and it makes me more confident, because that means I am on a right way in learning English and you are on a right way in teacihg it! It would be great if you made more lessons about pronunciation of different sounds, specificity of British accent, intonation into sentense/question and so on. Anyway, it is just a wish and your videos are still very useful and imoirtant for those who are learning English. Спасибо!

    Mind blowing. I have finally understood where the difference between bitch and beach lies. I think I am finally safe to say beach. I have been using synonyms for years e.g. coast, promenade, sea... and I am living at the seaside!! XD
    Thanks for the very good lesson.

    @estherariza 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Elliot! Thank you so much for this video. I think the most difficult thing is to use those words properly in a sentence, because you speak faster and it's difficult to say them in the appropiate way. However, I definitely agree with you, we need to practise as much as possible.
    I'm looking forward to watching your next video😊

    Hi I've currently subscribed your channel on TH-cam and be a big fan to catch you up when a new video is realised for me to fix up my accent into English and also understand English as I personally speak Australia English since I've builded up my basic language skills over there for couple of years. Your English accent is awesome and lessees would be bloody helpful that is kind of accent goals for me :D. Even though, I will be working in America very soon, I will keep practicing myself to speak English rather than America English in America lol.
