Did you know that there are up to 11 ways to pronounce the letter U in English?! Watch this English pronunciation lesson to MASTER all of these different pronunciations of U!

Do you want to learn how to pronounce the Letter U perfectly in British English? I made this video so you could learn how to pronounce the U perfectly at the beginning of words, in the middle of words and at the end of words.

I've also included a really tricky U Tongue Twister at the end of this lesson so once you've finished you should be a U pronunciation expert!

NOTE: There are A LOT of rules for how U should be pronounced and also LOTS of exceptions. So my advice is to immerse yourself as much as possible into the language and instead focus on getting a 'feel' for what the U sounds like in certain words. You will be very surprised because after a short time you will start to be able to 'guess' and 'feel' which sound is correct, just like a native speaker of English can!

This lesson has CHAPTERS so you can SKIP to the part you need to learn most.
