// NOTES
This video focuses on teaching Modern RP/RP (Received Pronunciation). This is the way you will find words pronounced in the dictionary, but do bear in mind that I am from Yorkshire! :)

*I had to remove a sentence from the /n/ + /ð/ section due to a filming/audio error.

// IMPORTANT
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. 💚

Did you enjoy this video? Please let me know and I'll do more! ❤️

[kundalini]

I love this video because I could see your mouth clearly and notice where to put my tongue for the correct pronunciation of the words thank you so much

[francescalc]

One of the most useful lesson ever! You definitely got the point! Linking words in sentence is always difficult for learners....especially for italians as me because we articulate every single syllable and the sounds never change.
You're doing a great job here on YT, your teaching style is unique and your topics are always so centred on what we're struggling for. You must be proud of yourself 🌹Well done Emma

[Fco.Javier]

Thanks, for this video. In my opinion, I believe we need (English students) more videos like this. Please do a PART 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.

[DanielPoon]

Wow, that video is SUPER useful. Please do a PART 2!!! Thanks, Emma 😁

[josephsacademy]

For advanced learners of English Emma will be a source of help to improve their pronunciation

[lusobridgebymiriamwaltrick]

By the way, just got to know your channel. Great lesson! Really good to help us to improve our pronounciation. Loved it!

[zakia]

I've discovered you channel recently and I'm literally amazed...before watching your videos I was more attracted by American accent (sorry for the British people 😅) but now I really appreciate your accent, your voice is really soft and like your videos which are useful, specially the shadowing ones.. thank you and please keep going 👏👏

[NishaliniNasha]

Shadowing it's helpful.
Do more please.
It's help to improve our slang and pronunciation

[ashikihsan]

Hi Emma, I love your Preplay lessons. Thank you for the Shadowing Exercises in British English Pronunciation. I love your pronunciation methods Emma and then I can easily learn it

[NusratJahan-kely]

Your attention to detail and insistence on getting things right is a valuable skill that sets you apart as a teacher. Your attention to detail and insistence on getting things right is a valuable skill that sets you apart as a teacher. Please, make more videos

[kalenderrehber]

Thank you so much this video is so useful and l found the most difficult to read these are d+r and t+r sounds

[irinacan]

I've been looking for british pronunciation training lessons. Thank you. It's very useful!

[laurafont]

So grateful as an English teacher in Barcelona

[AliciaSerrano-yybv]

Thanks Emma for this shadowing. It's very useful to improve my speaking skill 😊.
I will appreciate if you can do another one with the combinations: /ð/+ /z/ or /v/ or /f/. And add a third repetition of each phrase (last one as fast as the first one). Your face/mouth movements in the second one help me to assimilate how to do it and I have to rewatch the fast option to try my hability in a colloquial way 😅.
Thanks again for your time.

[Noobgaming-mdmp]

Super clearly pronunciation. Great Emma. Thank you! You speak Spanish so good. Rojo! Nice.

[seroglazka]

Thank you, this is the extremely useful video! Could you please do moooore videos with shadowing with pauses to repeat after you? I love training my pronunciation while doing some housework 🙃

[tonyuwu]

thank you so much, Emma. the speed of your reading is perfect for me.

[sajadsajadahmed]

Thank you so much that's good idea.
