It's rare to see this kind of situation in our school, but it's quite common in many English language training centers which hired foreign teachers. The posher the teacher speaks, the more likely to become a professional teacher in that center. The language center will also advertise the teacher's Posh Speaking accent

In British English, we say long vowels quite often and we omit the /r/ sound frequently. We also, usually, have a deeper voice and a less croaky-like pronunciation. Apart from that, it’s really just the extra vocab and knowing when to put the glottal stop instead of the /t/ sound.

I was really interested in why most (not all) the staff there spoke with a posh accent. (the only thing that bothered me was the commoners in Mainstream because some students there didn’t speak as well as the students in my department) (The common mainstreamers spoke a load of Poppycock) .

Hi there Tom! I love your videos! They're terrific!

Also, if you added the "would" alternative to the "used to" structure and if you explained the subtle differences between these two, that would super!!! I hope you'll consider my suggestion. It could be useful for students & teachers too! Thank you very much!

Thank you Tom, you've answered a question I have had for years! I am German, I've learned English at school in the 80s and at university in the 90s, I have a pronouncing dictionary - and I have always been taught the yod sound without a doubt. Duke, Tube, tuna - always only with a yod sound. That's why I also teach my students the yod sound. And suddenly I keep on hearing all these words with a tsh/dsh sound! And I always wondered why when who... I even asked English friends and they couldn't explain. Now finally! I do have my answer, thank you so much! (Now the question is - will I be able to change my way of speaking so that I can teach my students how those words are pronounced today?) (Btw the students' textbooks all use the 'old', or as you now explained 'posh' pronunciation!)

An English singer Johnny Flynn pronounces "dew" /dju:/, not /d͡ʒu:/, as most of the British would pronounce it, nor /du:/, as most Americans would pronounce it, so it sounds neither as "Jew" nor as "do": kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHecdXd4nc-Cmqc And I remember Galadriel in "The Lord of the Rings" pronounced "seduced by power" as "sedyoosed by power", not "sejoosed by power". She was portrayed by Cate Blanchette, who is from Australia, and I hear "tuna chewing" from Australians as well as from the British, but still she didn't turn /dju:/ into /d͡ʒu:/. On the other hand, this English teacher pronounces "deuce" /d͡ʒu:s/ so it sounds the same as "juice": kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaK9ZqVspp2SicU So it's up to you! By the way, "tuna chewing" creates 4 pairs of homophones: "Jew" & "dew" (or "due"), "June" & "dune", "juice" & "deuce" and "jewel" & "dual". But I can't think of any minimal pair which contrasts /t͡ʃu:/ and /tju:/. Probably it's because there are few words that begin with "choo". Actually I can think of only one: "choose". "Tuesday" usually sounds like "choose day" in British accents, but "choose day" is not a word.

You have a flat broad tongue (you may or may not have macroglossia -- one would need to take measurements to determine its volume relative to the volume of the oral cavity), and this is causing you to have a slight lisp. Also you have a mild Class 3 intergnathic relationship (the mandible is held slightly anterior to the maxilla).

Tom : your video is very funny : you really have an acting tallent! But that makes me remember when I began to learn English at school in early 70’s : we were taught English with this accent . And for our first trip to England , we didn’t understand anything. But I still love to hear this accent when I have tea.

I really thought that was quite exquisite diction in this tutorial. I do look forward toward a further engagement that would lend itself to delightful collusion in the not too distant future. I concur it has been informative especially when refererance to spiffy programs such as the ‘Carry On’ series. Terribly sorry old bean I digress.It has been a pleasure and I forward due platitudes
