You don't even know how greatful I am to you. I'm an English philology student from Poland and this year I'm going to write my thesis about teaching English pronunciation to primary school students. This is a huge help for me and I hope that after finishing this course, my pronunciation will be as beautiful as possible and I'll know how to use this knowledge in teaching. Thank you for free education on this channel. Kindest regards. ❤️

“Got it!” - some students were asking me other ways of expressing the concept ‘got it / get it’ and I’ve been away too long - can you suggest anything ( sorry it’s off-topic but you use it around 21.15 mins in to the video). Thanks!! Great stuff! Will share these great videos with my students!

[@micaelatronconi9298]

I love how you make everything seems like eating a piece of cake. I do appreciate your efforts and the passion you put in all the things you do. Keep going like this! It’s a pleasure to follow you 🤩 (I hope everything is correct ☺️)

[@DersuUzala.]

Pronouncing "the true "t" seems a good deal easier than making that "glottal stop" somewhere inside of ur neck & economises efforts in fluent speech . But this knowledge will definitely help understand the fans of this idea & cockney accent as well .

[@adamcarson5311]

When speaking fluently and at regular speed, using glottal T here and there helps you maintain that speed. Simply put, it’s easier. True T can slow you down when you might not want to. Like Aly says "be human". Things should be easy to say in the context of English language patterns :-)

[@adamcarson5311]

@Albert Kim?

[@OrlyYahalom]

I think I do the glottal t pretty ok at the end of a word, but in the middle of the word it's much harder and I sound really weird.

[@Miracle-uc6es]

You are the only good thing that I met in 2020 👍🏻

[@drunkcherry9152]

I love the way you teach. You've been keeping my spirit up during the whole 2020. I can't even find the words to express my gratitude to you. You're a treasure!! Looking forward to the next video of the course. Big love from Russia ❤❤❤

[@musashah9730]

Hi

[@albrechtdurer2282]

Thanks. You're absolutely right. Everyone should find own style in daily conversations. Mixing of British English accents is a good choice for me too. Instead of choosing only one style of pronunciation, mixing of different accents is the best choice.

[@nedkelly2677]

Absolutely great and liberating for a non native speaker having a brit suggesting to develop your own style.Thanks mate you are absolutely brilliant!

[@alureon771]

Oh, finally we're getting around to taking your British accent classes again, you legend Aly

[@HuzeyfeTVizle]

Amazing video, Aly! You’re the best!

[@MARA610]

Thanks for keeping us up to date with current pronunciation. Great lesson.

[@mfatihy_]

12:27 Yes, I agree that it's impossible. As you said at 2:22, glottalizing is stopping the air flow, thus the sound. So you need a sound to stop. If the consonant before the "t" is unvoiced, there is no sound to actually stop.

[@familiaursonainglaterra1367]

Hello dear, I am Brazilian and I have lived in England for 2 years, and I do not have time to study, just a lot of work, I take care of the house and my daughter. And what has helped me since then are your wonderful videos. Thank you so much for all of them. Xx

Hi, I am from Brazil and you are helping me fix the British pronunciation.

[@brissietevin5551]

Most people with English as their second language think that they should pronounce ‘T’ sound when they start to learn British English, and then they get to know about this “glottal T” and that is exactly the point when they feel “fxxx it, I give up” lol;; But your lesson and approach about glottal T is absolutely amazing and fresh :) I really enjoyed your lesson thanks a lot!
