I feel more comfortable with excercises like this, because I realized that is the same pronunciation and just add the letter I need to change the meaning.

It is very common to use the "E" at the beggining of the words that start with 'S' and when I started to use the right pronunciation people used to correct me and said: Espain! I can't hear the "S" at the beggining!
and I was like: It's because of that! the "S" does not have "E" at the beggining! -
I'm speechless! learn a new language is something that we have to be serious about for sure.
We really need to take care on our pronunciation! -

I have learnt a lot in this pastilla two weeks, I felt that I improve my pronunciaction, But I need to practice a lot! In this coming weeks I would like have the chance to pratice, speak, speak, speak, and maybe send the audio and someone else can check it, and tell me if I'm doing good.

Not native english speakers mix all the ime the accents, and it's more comon to mix american and Brittish accent, but now we have the oportunity to lean on just one direction, mine is always Brittish, I just love the accent!

Vilma Lizeth Rodríguez made a comment
I just love this course! thank you!
-
I think I need to practice more the vowels, BUT, I use to make little differenciation while speak, because I realized myself that the pronunciation of some vowels make words have different meanings...
-
Now, I'm feeling like I'm starting learning the language again jajaja like first month of study when I tried to overthink the pronunciation, now I'm overthinking the pronunciation when I speak, sometimes I sound like "Brittish wannabe" jejeje
-
My God! Sometimes we take pronunciation not "seriously" when we are learning English, and we try to speak randomly, withouth thinking all things it may cause.
This help me to take more care when I am talking with someone -

I didn't have any clue about Rhoticity, that makes me feel better because now I can be more specific according to my accent.
I'm looking for fluenty in Brittish accent

I really want and need to speak with a Brittish accent, I work in a Brittish school as a teacher, they don't care to much about the accent actually, because it's a global school, but it has been my main goal since I started working here.
I know it's about practice, but sometimes I sound forced and I don't want to be branded as a "Brittish wannabes"What...

Wow! That's a really good song! I love everything! jejejeje

You can hear the difference in both accents, for me it's quite frustrating because different words have almost the same pronunciation but the vowel it's quite long or short, and when I pronounce them I think it to much

I would like to sound quite Brittish, and get my diction better

My philosophy is that students need to enjoy what they are doing, they don´t have to feel that music is stressful or frustrating, and while they are learning to play an instrument they don´t have to compare to other all of us have our own pace of learning, and lots of people stop doing things because they don´t feel "good enough" or because "other are better...

Hi!
I'm a music teacher in a British School in El Salvador Centre America, as a music teacher I have to explain my subject in English, I'm not a native English speaker, and sometimes it's quite difficult for me to express myself, and with children we have to be very carefully because they learn everything they hear, so, a mistake would be horrific! I'm happy... -
