English consonants can be confusing! Whether it’s understanding the difference between the different consonants, or producing them.
In this consonant masterclass, I’ll teach you the three elements that you need to take into consideration when pronouncing consonants (hint: it’s all about place of articulation, manner of articulation, and voicing), and how the consonant chart represents all of that. It’s easier than you think! I will also teach you how to read the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) and discuss some tricky cases that you should look out for, when it comes to the pronunciation of consonants.
Do you merge B and P in English? Or maybe you confuse W and V? Do you struggle with the TH or the R? Or do you simply want to understand the IPA consonant chart? This video is for you!

Hello. I’m vietnamese and i’ve been studying English for 1 year but English pronunciation is my hardest part when i studying English. I tried to learn IPA via youtube videos that teach about IPA but their did’t work for me. Fortunately i found your’s videos and it’s very helpfull to me. Thank u so much.
From VietNam with love ❤❤❤
For the first time I understood the difference between n and ng. I love you Hadar
as a spanish speaker, this video is the best!. finnally after many years i can pronounce english correctly and undestand it clearly.
This master lesson made me feel like I was in my school, sitting on my chair and paying attention to what the teacher is telling me, so awesome, and many thanks for sharing this helpful video.

This video is mind-blowing! I've been trying to sound more American and I've been studying the English vowels. After a few months focusing on pronunciation I'm able to distinguish most of them but I'm still having a hard time pronouncing them, and even more so to incorporate them whenever I speak. I think I'm finally understanding the difference between "I" and "e" as in "pink" and "red" thanks to this video and the tongue position explanation. Thank you!
Her explanation is gold!!👏🏽👏🏽
I could listen to you for years! You’re absolutely amazing…
We don't have "θ, ð, w" consonants in Turkish. We have "r, ɾ" but not "ɹ". We have all of the other American English consonants. So, it doesn't take too long to learn and produce American English consonants for us. However, the real challenge is the vowels because vowels have different qualities and they really change the melody. I wish they had taught these sounds in school and so we would have been so much better in English. It's really not that hard to teach them. Anyway, thanks Hadar!
Hadar you are such amazing teacher, I'm truly improving my self-confidence and fluency using your recently techniques. I have been watching your videos from almost 1 month and I could say it's true about all you said, pronunciation confidence is the key to improve our English speaking. This is gold for us, believe me. Keep going your are the best teacher (and James ESL) jejeje I'm learning a lot from you 😘😘😘, thanks for helping us.
PD: Hadar do you have Patreon? I'd like to support your content.
As a Slavic language speaker, the post-alveolar approximate (r) was the most difficult, followed by unconsciously producing a t/d instead of "th". The transition from "th" to "r" also took a _lot_ of practice. There are other difficulties, but these are by far major ones for me. Thanks for all your videos on those subject, Hadar!
As a Japanese speaker, I thought for a very long time that R was the hardest English sound to pronounce. In school I was taught to practice R as it doesn’t exist in Japanese, and L is close to Japanese R (which I guess is somewhere in between English R and L). So I practiced R a lot and became good at it, and wasn’t paying much attention to L (was using Japanese R for it).
I was shocked when a ESL teacher first pointed out to me that my L in “really” sounded like R. Since then I’ve been very careful with Ls but still the hardest consonant for me especially when trying to speak faster or after speaking Japanese, as my tongue get confused which way to go, L or Japanese R lol.
So for other Japanese speakers I want to strongly advise that practicing L is as important as R, along with TH, V, F etc.
I love how you explained the whole English phonetic table of consonants.
Thanks a lot
:)
The best class on English consonants I have ever had
Thank you for taking the time to create this video. I am currently taking a phonetic class and your video has helped me tremendously. Please continue to make more because you are definitely improving the life of many of us that are learning from you.
I have never thought of the proper location of my tong and etc, during pronunciation. I just say words without even thinking about them. It is fascinating to me how much details we have behind the consonants or producing them. I cannot hear myself, so may ask my coworkers to come up with the list of my " typical mispronounced consonants". I am sure I have them! Keep you posted. Thank you for your masterclass!
So amazing energy to explain the consonant sounds. It's all in one. 👏👏👏 Thx 😊
Amazing and sharp explanation Hadar! Thanks for helping us understand how to produce the sounds in a clearer way!
The Best and the most useful 35 minutes of my entire English learning journey..
Yes, with your Masterclass, anyone with a keen interest can master English speaking with a little effort.
Here in India, unfortunately, the curriculum doesn't give the required weightage to this "the Foundation" and yet expect every student to sound like a native speaker.
This is priceless. So clear, it's incredible! I love your way to explain things. I can't thank you enough 😍❤
Hadar You truly deserve all the possible superlatives for the way you explain everything, huge thank you for that and for all the content you create and share.🤩🥰
I don't know how to say my words and thank youuuu hadar! You helped me alot I really really needed this for my linguistic course. God bless you, you're amazing. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Master’s level. I finally got it. Thank you so much. You are the best!
I learned so much from this masterclass. Thank you Hadar. : )
This is fascinating. Never thought of this in such detail, but when I consciously try putting all the things in the right place I produce the right sound (or close enough :). I think in the Russian language some similar consonants that we use just moved one square to the left.
It is a great lesson ! Thank you so much !
Wow, it's definitely the most thorough and detailed review of all English consonants I've ever seen 🤔 So many new and sophisticated words, I think even for a native speakers 😁
Simplemente... GRACIAS! Dios te bendiga ❤
Super clear and clearifying!!
I love you Hadar! You are the reason of why am I being a good speaker now, like you straightened up my tongue literally. Not just that you're a good and fun teacher but beautiful too ;) ^_^ thank you so much!
the best lesson of pronunciation I've ever learnt! Thanks a lot!

You are helping me a lot.
Thanks for such a wonderful lesson. It has been helpful to me in my pronunciation currently.
Perfect lesson
Your explanation is so wonderful and clear. Thanks a lot.
You are the best teacher that I know. You can make a bad student like me into a good one. Really, that is a favor of you to me. I am very grateful to you.
this class is so useful to understand how to pronounce it. Thanks a lot.
This is what I was looking for, thank you. I was not able to finish the lesson, but I will come to it. From Calfornia
Great job!
The only thing missing here is the distinction between aspirated and unaspirated sounds, which would be particularly helpful for people whose native language doesn't use aspiration for the /p/, /t/, and /k/ consonants.
For me, the most challenging consonant is the ”R”. This lesson is very, very useful. Thank you!😍💡
Excellent
Thanks
OMG This is the best video I have watched about the alphabet in English. thank you a lot. you are the best.
without a doubt a great professional congratulation my lady teacher
Millions thank, teacher. It helps me a lot.
Amazing!!! and Thanks a LOT for this helpfully video!
I studied this in 1995 in English Phonology and taught it to my English students
Thank you for using all the technical terms. I am a linguistic student, first year, taking a phonetics and IPA transcription course, and have to learn all the IPA symbols. This has helped with really thinking of manner and place for the phonemes outside of English.
Happy it helped! ❤️
Amazing lesson and an amazing teacher! THANKS HADAR

You helped me a lot with you videos, please keep doing it and thanks for help us.
Woooooow
Thank you so so so much
Thank you very much 💓🥰
Great video.
As for most Italians the most difficult consonants are the dental fricatives (θ and ð).
Other difficult consonants are the voiced velar nasal (ŋ) and the american r which is different from the italian one.
We Italians are also lazy when we have to pronounce the h and usually skip it (kind of cockney pronunciation).
I have requested the pdf of the lesson, but so far I have not received it.
The priceless video! Considering myself an advanced English speaker, I finally know for sure how these sounds work in there (in my mouth) :)
Hadar, I have long wanted to ask you what do you think about the stopped D sound.
Many pronunciation trainers talk about the stopped T sound in American English. But I never found any videos about a stopped D.
Despite it exists. Or at least I hear it :)
Like in: "Good bye", " Good girl!"
I never knew consonants can be so entertaining!
I like your lessons
와우.....정말로 꼭 필요한 강의입니다. 영어를 공부하는 모든 한국인들이 Hadar 당신의 강의를 듣고 공부하기 바랍니다
Thank you so much this is the lesson very important oky you're mircle vioce
I LOVE WHOLE YOUR CONTENT HADAR
Aww thank you!! Sending ❤️
i totally enjoyed dis video🤗🤗.. so much help for my diction😊.. now i know better.. thank u soo muchh😘😘
Nice
Great explanation.
Fot me, It''s difficult to distiguish some sounds such P Vs B, T Vs D, F Vs V and Th when they are in the middle or at the end of a word. I hope there will be future explations of the sound based on the position in a word.
