Hi Rachel, Now I am 65 years old, after a few courses at different times, I have finally found a practical method to learn and especially to understand and make myself understood. Thanks

Hi Rachel! I have been living 27 years in the United States and I'm still learning English! I noticed lately that the tip to lower the jaw and speak more from the bottom of the throat is really the key and will take care of most of the pronunciation problems. Suddenly it's easier to produce the "th" sound, the dark "L" sound, "a" as in cat etc. Of course it won't help with the pitch, that's a different issue, which you are addressing in this video as well.

Proffesor Rachel, thank you for working so hard to help students feel at ease when pronouncing English. I remember a native American once telling me to read and pronounce softly --- without straining my speech organs. Moreover, you are totally right, native pronunciation normally comes from the bottom of the mouth, with connected speech playing and important role in achieving a smooth, fluent pronunciation, as if your tongue were gliding. I keep telling this to my students right from the start. I was fortunate to have an educated native speaker teach me pronunciation early in life. You are simply just great. Keep up the good work. I will try to keep in touch. Thank you so much for your time.

This video is one of the best pronunciation tutorials I have ever seen, Rachel really knows pronunciation, she pointed out many pronunciation mistakes that I didn’t notice before, such as speaking too fast, having a flat tone, moving the mouth too little, etc. She also gave me many suggestions to improve my pronunciation, such as imagining that I am applying toothpaste or painting when I speak, which made me feel that my pronunciation became more natural and fluent. I am very grateful for her teaching, I will recommend this video to my friends.

I see students' paralysis. This is a huge obstacle nobody's talking about. English is my second language. I've been living in English speaking country for the last 37 years. There is always room for improvement. So if I decided to go to school to improve my English, I'd be equally paralyzed as the beginners. This phenomenon occurs only
when dealing with a teacher. I can't figure out why I am never worried about my accent and pronunciation at work and daily life. But, when I see my former former English teacher, I am paralyzed. I am sure more learners suffer from the same problem. Solution would be much appreciated by many.
Rachel. You've heard this thousands of times. But I have to say it again. You're the best. You're a national treasure.

More mouth movement is certanly something I'll start to pay attention. In fact it feels weird, even when I'm listening. But what I loved the most about this tip, is that we don't see it in other channels, it's the first time I heard about it.

Hey Rach !
I don't know how to start, but it's plain to see how passionate you are on helping us getting our American voice, and I totally understand what you're trying to disclose to us, because I know how it feels hearing someone speaking your language and knowing a little bit of a fix maybe just a slight tongue disposition would make it more natural and perfect.
You know, the other day, I was watching an Indian woman on TV talking in my native language about her life and business in my country. And she was a little pitchy and her words were kind of mumbled, well it sounded sweet but at points it got uncomfortable, you know what I mean ? I noticed she had a good level of grammar as she had lived over 15 years in the country, but feels like, I would've had understood her better if she was more natural and clear, because sometimes, it's not about what you say, but how you say what you've got.
Here's the thing, if someone says, "could me some water get?" Oh you want some water? Yeah! Here you go.
And someone, "good I guess som wassa?" What sir?
You have a perfect grammar, yet you can not communicate, because people can sort out what they hear, but not what they don't.
So, it worth talking about, and this channel has a whole lot of it.
In the end, I want to and have to say, Rach, you're a critical thinker and a talented English teacher on YouTube, it's incredible how you sound like a slowed down audio, while using your own voice! and how you shift pitch to pitch with ease, you've just got a way with it. Thanks for your awesome channel, it's where I practise my English.

Oups! I was pronouncing "analytics" with the stress on the second vowel like the word: "analysis". Common rookie mistake (as a native French speaker) - confusing the position of the main stress.
