    Thank you so much for your help and passion. The R sound has always been a mystery to me. You've made the process of fixing the R sound in my words much easier.

    Thank you, coach Shane. I’ve been practicing r for about a month, and only your way really delights me. It really helps. Thank you so much.

      @@coachshanesesl I wanna know if the sound will change or not in American English or British English. Because in my opinion,
      American: hair /hɪr/
      British:hair /heə/
      Am I right? I think that's the point of 'R controlled' it changes the sound

    Thank you very much for the post. May I ask you what happens with the "r" in the following words (in non-rhotic accents like RP): beware /bɪˈwɛə/, care /kɛə/, dare /dɛə/, there /ðɛə/, share /ʃɛə/, compare /kəmˈpɛə/, careful /ˈkɛəfʊl/, sphere /sfɪə/, figure /ˈfɪɡə/, and so on? In all of these cases the “r” is neither at the end of the word nor before consonant (rules that many BrE teachers teach for silent "r") - still, it is silent. Are there any rules that can be applied in these cases? What about: very, necessary, arbitrary, and so on - here the "r" is pronounced, but, even though in the middle of the word, there's no consonant before it (other rule BrE teachers teach for non-silent "r")? What's the rule here? What about the words: order, separate and the like? In "order", for example, the "r" is before a consonant - still, it is silent. On the other hand, in "separate" the "r" is in middle position, but there's no consonant before it - still, it is pronounced and therefore non-silent. What I am trying to learn is whether (or not) there are 2 separate rules for the “r”: one telling me when the “r” must be pronounced and one telling me when the “r” is silent. Am I missing something here? Thank you!
    As I have spoken with other BrE experts, I would also like to ask you if the following conclusions are accurate enough and could be considered a rule for the pronunciation of the "r" sound (in British RP and non-rhotic accents of English):
    1. "r" is silent in the following words: car, star, sister, mother, word, person, bird (/kɑː/, /stɑː/, /ˈsɪstə/, /ˈmʌðə/, /wɜːd/, /ˈpɜːsn/, /bɜːd/) because it is not followed by a vowel sound.
    2. "r" is pronounced in the following words: read, write, red, Rome, grass, green, very, separate (/riːd/, /raɪt/, /rɛd/, /rəʊm/, /grɑːs/, /griːn/, /ˈvɛri/, /'sepərət/) and also in berry, carry, arrange (ˈ/bɛri/, /ˈkæri/, /əˈreɪnʤ/) because it is followed by a vowel sound.
    Or, to sum up: /r/ (the phoneme, i.e. the sound as in red) occurs only before a vowel phoneme (in British RP and non-rhotic accents of English). In every other case, it is silent. Thank you!

    Shane, some natives say that in order to make R you should bend the opposite sides of your mouth in a U-shape. Some of them say exactly what you do. So where the hell do you really place your tongue so I could follow? Thanks.

    Neo's here~! I have a very simple question. "Thanks vs Thank you". I know more respective and formal way is "thank you". Is that all? Please also check out "ear vs year" video. I also left a question there. Speaking of "there". People say "in there" or "in here". I heard those are not right grammatically, but commonly they just say "in there" and "in here". Could you explain this?
