How to Learn a British Accent *Fast* (Modern RP)

I appreciate that you're teaching people how to role play with a British accent.

I’m from London and I want to thank you for teaching people how to role play with a British accent I have referred countless students to your video & have received an overwhelmingly positive response. Practice makes a man perfect so try to involve in the language as much as you can and never give up.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🗣️ Focus on word choice and use British versions of words (e.g., "rubbish" instead of "trash"). 02:43 🇬🇧 Pay attention to consonants, enunciate "t" sounds clearly, and avoid glottal stops. 06:48 🗣️ Vowel sounds are crucial; practice the schwa sound, short "o," long "a," and diphthongs. 10:24 🎵 Master the rhythm and intonation by listening to native speakers and mirroring their speech.

Im a new follower I have always wanted a British accent because it sounds so nice to me. Thank you for this cheerio .

I learned my British accent over my childhood/teenage years by watching Top Gear, so much so that it's nearly as natural to speak in a British accent as it is to speak in my natural Northeastern US accent. Over the years, I've learned how to adapt it to pull off decent Irish, Scottish, Australian, New Zealand, and South African accents as well. I find it so fun to surprise people with them!

I am English, but I was so fascinated and charmed by your video that I watched it through to the end; I have some overseas friends and am curious as to how some strive to achieve their English accent, whilst others just hang on to speaking maybe very good English whilst never losing their foreign accent! Thank you- I’m subscribed!

I don't know why YT recommended this to me, but I'm so glad it did! What a fascinating look into RP English accents, I had no idea these things were categorized so nicely. Subbed!

Oh, this is just a pure pleasure to look at you and to listen to the way you speak English. Thanks for sharing the tips

actually i like the way you post your vid. because you dont brag how smart you are but teaching us how to be smart like you are. Thank you. You earned my subscribe button.

thanks Izzy, such a helpful video! very well made too, and you look so natural in front of a camera, well done :) I found the examples and comparisons between UK / US versions of words to be very useful for me

I just loved your video. Your sweetness and friendliness makes it easy to understand and enjoyable. Thanks. Cheers

This is great! I leave now in America, but when I was in Brazil trying to learn English my teacher were a British, so I still pronounce some words with a British intonation. It is easier for Portuguese speaking people. So I thank you very much for your tips. It’s very helpful indeed. 💕

you just got yourself a like, sub, and comment for the algorithm! i'm american and i've secretly wanted an RP accent my entire life! (like every american probably) i imagine every video ab this topic would do well please keep them coming thank you Izzy!

Thank you very for choosing this particular topic! As a teacher of the English language, I’ve learnt and enjoyed your tactful, yet elaborate explanation. I’m sure many of my students will take equal interest as they want to know how to acquire the British accent. Frankly speaking, I’d be all the more happy if they do also try to pick up your inspiring smile! Finally, I’m truly amazed by the fact that you are a medical student! That tells me how much passion and talent you have for being a language instructor. Likewise, I graduated with a BA degree in Mass Com and was at one time a news reporter, but the classroom has kind of ‘gravitated’ me to its ‘orbit’ — and since day one have been spinning and spinning for 25 years now! Keep shining teacher!

I do appreciate your clear comments on how the British speak differently. It helps me a lot.

I was born speaking RP English and lived in England till 2012. I have lived in Tennessee USA since then. Trying super hard to keep speaking with modern RP so thanks for your channel.

What a fabulous video! You have explained everything so effortlessly with so much ease and fun.

Izzy you are doing great job honestly from the time I have started to follow you, my pronunciation has improved dramatically. Thank you for sharing your thoughts,much appreciation from Dubai.

This is the best and most comprehensive RP accent video I've watched. Thank you, Izzy. If you ever make a RP pronunciation course, I will buy it!

One of the best! Really like it.
