Frequently asked questions
How long should I practise each day?
Fifteen focused minutes beats a two-hour cram. Book the slot, do the drill, and stop while you still remember it.
Do I need a tutor for this?
You can start alone. A tutor is what turns a correct answer on the page into something you can say out loud under pressure.
Which video should I watch first?
Start with the TH sound clip, then repeat after the tutor. The meeting simulation is the one to try once the sound is stable.
