[@jarodcarnarvon5198]

All my years growing up, I don't think I ever remember having a teacher as nice as this gal.

[@JillDiamond]

Thank you Jarod!

[@JillDiamond]

That's a nice compliment. Thanks Ahmad!

[@chriskayel]

Your lessons are a blessing even for native speakers.Intonation and melody are very essential for a language.I'm trying to teach my students the same way.Pronunciantion and grammar are very important and need to be treated with respect by all.I,absolutely,love the way you utilize the appropriate terminology.I call feel the love you have for our language and how it has become a part of your being.Keep making such videos.You are a blessing!!!

[@JillDiamond]

Thanks Chris. I love to talk about this topic!

[@imranbhatti8580]

This lady (Jill Diamond) and the Director of the "AccurateEnglish (Lisa Mojsin) are really very passionate teachers of "American Accent"...I watch their videos. keep up the good work.

[@NotFound-iu8wx]

Lisa is amazing

[@xrkuzd1569]

Absolutely beautiful stuff here, Jill. Oh and the lesson was great too! Learned a lot, thank you.

[@cahernandeza]

!Wow!, really a great place to improve my pronunciation. Thanks a lot. You're a kind person.

[@jahaneibrahim1327]

Yeah i believe so

[@nyelkenci]

as a TESOL teacher i admire the way you handle your classes. just perfect. I get to learn great deal. Take care. 👍🌝

[@JillDiamond]

That means a lot to me. Thank you for your comment!

[@juancamaney9690]

I would like a teacher like she.

[@abdoulayebalde2139]

She is the best teacher so far . I don't used ti comment but this teacher is simply amazing I hope you were my teacher when I stated learning English

[@chamnanrodpai7234]

She is not only a great teacher but also as a coach that provides the knowledge and strength in the journey towards the goal of speaking English fluency.

[@monsifnachit3247]

You are a good teacher I like your methode in learn english

[@tyt2trk]

that was a difficult lesson, i think i need more practice, thank u mrs diamond u r a gr8 teacher

[@anasbenhaddou7827]

Thank you Jinn for your well constructed and simple approache. Now, i am more aware of the slide and step effect.

[@JillDiamond]

That makes me so happy!

[@anasbenhaddou7827]

@@JillDiamond you being happy makes me happier haha. In two weeks from now, I will join an EFL teacher training programm in Morocco. Following your teachings will enable me to improve my own pronunciation as of my students

[@mikrirallou2655]

Dear Jill, I am an English teacher myself. Even though, your accent is American, I find it especially useful to listen to yourclasses. Unfortunately, I think, modern foreign languages teachers kill their students with pronunciation of the specific words. They do forget that language is a chain of the words’ sequence so to understand a foreigner, it is crucial to know how the intonation operates, and not what a single word stress is. Thank you, Jill, and keep going🚣🏼

[@JillDiamond]

You are very welcome and THANK YOU Mikri! Where do you teach English? I hope my classes help you practice the chain of the words, as you say!

[@sumitdatta6178]

Mam you are an execellent teacher

[@classic5005]

This kind of teaching is suitable for women.

[@JillDiamond]

Certainly helps women (and men, I might add!)

[@tanyag8220]

Amazing explanation! Using the ball made me understand it so much better. Thanks for posting this.

[@JillDiamond]

You got it, Tanya!

[@jeandcarvalho3916]

Excellent class, Professor. Jill Diamond. There are hundreds of video lessons, but with a direct student it gives the feeling of being really alone in the classroom. And training with the student does not invite you to really participate. Congratulations! Dorgival Dantas Brito São Paulo Brasil

[@SmartJandira]

Way to go , Jill. You are great. It´s very important lesson.

[@andresborja9976]

yeah, really a great place to improve my pronunciation. *Jill Diamond* Excellent lesson

[@Mohsenyazdani]

She is great. It is a pleasure to watch the way of her teaching.

[@MikeB75]

Jill Diamond ,you are beautiful and your method of teaching is even more beautiful,simply awesome,great job,THANKS A LOT.

[@sophia7gr]

Great lesson. I'm really trying to exercise in the same way but it's so difficult to include what you learn at the same time you make a conversation. But maybe my problem is that' I'm also trying to translate it from my language. So many things to control at the same time.

[@mohsenheiba4530]

sophia7gr hi Can are we speak together to enhance our English language?

[@JillDiamond]

There are many things to think about when speaking a second language, that is true. Try to focus on one thing per week so that you can start to see and hear improvement.

[@JillDiamond]

There are many things to control at the same time Sophia. I suggest you choose one thing per week and focus on that knowing that the rest may not be perfect. It will all come together with your determination and will! Good luck.

[@JillDiamond]

I think it is very important to separate the practice from the real time. In other words, as long as you have regular exercises you work on, you will build the muscle memory. And when you go to speak, you have to trust what you are learning in your exercises will show up. It may not be exactly at the speed you want, but again, as long as you consistently practice, I promise you will see the results over time. Good luck and thanks for watching my channel!

[@Hananinpalestine.]

I wish if you were my teacher! This is the first vídeo I have ever watched. May Allah bless you.

[@inglescombenkeats]

This is the 1st time I watch a video of yours, and I really like it! I was able to learn the patterns you taught, and after applying them on my own speech I could notice how much more American I sounded, haha. I'm used to talking with Americans, but couldn't figure out how to sound more like a native; after you explained the speech patterns I was like "ohhh, so that's how they do it". Definitely gonna subscribe and keep checking your work!

[@JillDiamond]

That's amazing @Talles. I'm so glad it helped you out! I've also got educational weekly emails if you'd like: www.byjilldiamond.com/#educationalemails. Thanks for subscribing and I look forward to knowing you more!

[@nimacog66]

Helloo.dear.gotta question.in a sentences with sem stressed words with more than1 syllable,shud i put stress JUST on their stresses syllable,or shed i put stress on whole that multi syllable word?.thank in advance fer ur answering.nima from iran

[@JillDiamond]

Hi Nima. If I understand your question, with multi-syllabic words, you'll have more than one stressed syllable. However, the PRIMARY syllable gets the longest, loudest, and highest pitch. So, we still need to hear that ONE syllable is the most important. Does that help?

[@HuaJarry]

hi, jill I am really confused by the last words you say, something went off like a light bulb went off for you. what that mean? thank you. I have listened for so many time but I still cannot get that meaning.😭

[@nazarenovallejos]
