    I teach using just one of many accents in the world. Please only learn it if you like it and if you are interested in learning it. I do not believe there is one “correct” accent or manner of pronunciation and I fully encourage EFL/ESL learners to expose themselves to as many varieties of English around the world to become accustomed to the beautiful variations of this world language. I focus mostly on teaching “Modern RP” (I may just say “RP” in my older videos, but to clarify, I do specifically mean “Modern RP”), however, you will hear a lovely little Yorkshire twang to my accent from time to time too. Please LOVE and BE PROUD of your accent. After all, it is part of your identity and makes you unique. 💚

    Hi Emma! I remember I asked if you would compare the dark l and the w sound, I can't hear the differences between them. And tend to use the w sound instead of the dark l. You are so listening to your students. This video clearly explained the differences between the light l, dark l, and the w sound. You have pointed out what are the important things to pronounce these sounds.

    My personal tips for a better understanding of any English lesson:
    - Pause the video to repeat the sentences and to see the position of the tongue and lips.
    - Reduce video speed from normal to ×0.75 or x0.50 to listen the pronunciation, find the connections between words, notice the intonation and also the lips movements.

    In my experience the Italian people aren't able to pronounce the dark L. In fact they have problems to pronounce any word that finishes in consonat. I realized it working with them, mainly L or P.
    In other hand, Catalan people, as I am, pronounce properly the dark L.
