Thank you for watching. And now, tell me this - What are the things that you can do every day to help you improve your pronunciation?
-
oh my God this is so hard and impossible... but then I remember I used to struggle a lot with "better" and "water" before watching your video about the flap T + R (I didn't even know that was a thing) and after practicing and practicing, I finally was able to say them 😭🙏 (real talk, I was so happy). So, thank you!

I've been struggling with the "r" + flap "t" combination for half a year, as in words: party, thirty, forty turtle, property etc. I can't pronounce it, though I have no problems with any other vowels, consonants, and any combinations. However, I'll be continue trying. I wanna sound like a native. Now, I can say party, forty etc with flap "t" and without "r". But I'm not giving up. Your video is very full. I hope your explanation will help. I'll be struggling for a long time. Good luck to everyone, who have the same problem!

Hadar, you are AWESOME!!!!!!! How can you master the American English pronunciation so well although you're not a native English speaker??????? I have a major in English Advanced Phonetics and I'm really impressed!!!! Congratulations for your talent and dedication !!!!!!!!!!!

-
Holy cow! Hadar, I've been struggling with this specific R-flapT combination for quite a bit and it's incredible how it seems you heard me cursing at it and said "hey, wait, let me help you, dude!". I've never found a thing specific about this on Youtube or any kind of blog. Thank you very much! I hope you never forget how inspiring you are!
-

Hadar, I'm totally grateful for your videos, and this channel has gone on my FB page as the Fabulous Find for February. I've recently started teaching Korean students on the phone, and the sessions are only ten or twenty minutes long (!?!?!) so there's not a lot of time to explain pronunciation in a technical way - and without the visual aspect, I was really at a loss. I've been looking for a collection of videos that I can send links to in my teacher's notes, and yours are the closest to perfect that I've found. Not only is the instruction clear, but your style is extremely engaging and personable - which is really important to me, because I wanted an atmosphere that was similar to my own. The production quality of the videos is also top-notch, and I really appreciate that. You're like a pronunciation angel - thanks so much! -Staz

Thanks millions for doing this lesson, Hadar! It's really clear and clean ways of explanation. I really like it!!
-
It’s actually an interesting class. This explanation was enough to clarify some doubts that I’ve kept in my mind through out time. Thanks Hadar!
-
I loved the moment when you end up with 3 words on the screen (further, farther and father) because that's how it sounds if you do or don't do something in the word we were talking about 😂. But yes, that's what happens. Well explained 🙂.
-
Excellent explanation! 👏🏻👏🏻(as always 🤩) As the pronounce of these two words sound almost the same it’s a struggle understand (listening) the difference between the two, but from this video we clearly notice that there’s an “r” there that makes all the difference. 🙏🏻 Congratulations on the great job on this video, and also thanks for being an amazing coach. Love you! 💖😘
