How to speak and make sounds in American English Series.

Speaking English in America is only "half the battle". Sometimes hearing and distinguishing between similar sounds can be a challenge in tuning your ear and understanding how the sounds are actually made. Watch this video for some useful and powerful tips to improve your listening and speaking skills when it comes to the sounds for L and R.

Do you wanna know how to pronounce and understand L and R sounds in American English?

This is a link to a previous video I made that describes how to make the sounds L and R with your tongue, teeth, mouth and lips:

This video tutorial is good for those coming from languages without L and R sounds or with no distinction between L and R sounds. Japanese students may benefit from this English lesson.
