In the English language some consonants are voiced and some are unvoiced. The table below shows the unvoiced consonants with their voiced counterparts.
Unvoiced | Voiced |
---|---|
s | z |
k | g |
f | v |
th | th |
ch | g |
p | b |
sh | j |
t | d |
There are two types of 'th', the unvoiced and voiced pronunciation.
The 'th' sound will be voiceless at the beginning of a content word. A content word is a word that add a meaning to a sentence, for example nouns, verbs or adjectives. The 'th' is unvoiced in the middle of words when it is before a consonant. The 'th' sound is voiceless when it is at the end of words, except for the word 'with'.
Examples of the unvoiced 'th':
The 'th' is voiced when it is at the beginning of the function word. A function word is a word that doesn't mean a specific action. The 'th' is voiced when it is in the middle of words between two vowels. The 'th' at the end of the word 'with' is voiced.
Examples of the voiced 'th':
The examples below show the different pronunciation between the 'sp' and 'st'.
The letters 'v' and 'w' have a different pronunciation, to understand the difference listen to the words below.
The rule to learn for the pronunciation of the letter 'r' is:
Most English vowels have a long vowel sound and short vowel sound depending on the word.
The letter 'a' has a long sound, sounds like 'ei' and a short sound, sounds like 'ah'.
In words that include '-ought', '-aught', '-alk' or '-aw', the 'a' sound is pronounced like 'oh'.
The long sound of the letter 'e' is pronounced as 'ee'. The short sound of the letter 'e' is pronounced as 'eh'.
When the letter 'Y' is at the end of a word that has more than one syllable and when the letters 'ie' are together, they are pronounced as a long 'e'. For example: lady, funny, believe, piece.
The long vowel 'i' sounds like 'aiy'. The short vowel 'i' sounds like 'ih'.
When the letter 'y' is at the end of a word that has one syllable it is pronounced as a long 'i'. For example: my, bye, why.
The long vowel 'o' sounds like 'ooh'. The short vowel 'o' is pronounced as 'oh'.
When the letter 'o' is followed by another vowel it is still pronounced as 'ooh'. For example: boat, toe.
The long sound of the vowel 'u' is the pronounced like 'yu'. The short vowel 'u' sounds like 'uh'.
When the letter 'u' is followed by the vowels 'e' or 'i' it is still pronounced as a long vowel 'u'. For example: fruit, clue.
There are some words in English that have the two 'oo' sound.
When the letters 'oo' follow the letter 'l', it is pronounced as a short 'u' sound. For example: flood, blood.

Dear all,
Would you like to learn a new language such as Italian, English or Spanish in a smooth, accessible and fun way? Then, it would be a great idea to embark on an exciting journey together!
My big priority is to make sure that my students will learn a new language and get much more familiar with a new culture as fast as possible by doing dynamic and funny activities which suit everyone’s needs and passions. Song lyrics, texts from your favourite books, literature, parts of movies, news, TV series, traditional recipes may be only some of the instruments that we can use in order to make the learning process more efficient and focused on using the new language in different fields.
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Languages and Literature from the University of Verona (Italy) and a Master’s Degree, cum Laude, in Languages and Media from the University ‘Cattolica’ in Milan (Italy) and Chapman University in Orange, California (USA).
If you are a proper beginner, if you already know a few words but you don’t dare to speak to anyone yet, if you are already very confident with the language but you still want to get to a higher level of proficiency, if you want to know better about one of these cultures, than this is a perfect course for you.
A nice introductory chat can help both of us to understand which is the starting level and which is the goal of the course in order to tailor a proper class according to your need.
Join the course and you will be immediately immersed in a new culture and in a heartbeat you will speak a new language!
See you soon!

Hello everyone!
My name is Elena! I have been teaching French to children and to adults for 13 years.
I fell in love with French language, literature, history and culture years ago. And today I help people to learn this beautiful language.
In 2008 I started working in an AUF member university and I’ve spend six years teaching general and professional French language skills to students and preparing them for DELF/DALF/TCF examinations.
Later I collaborated with several language schools working with children and adults and as a privat tutor.
Now I teache in Alliance Française and I continue to give privat lessons. I also work as a French - Russian interpreter.
In 2017 I started teaching online and I know how to make learning fun, creative end efficient to people of all ages and needs. In my opinion, any study should be a pleasure, so I do my best to make my students enjoy the lessons and progress in speaking, reading, writing, listening and grammar at the same time.
Contact me to book a trial lesson and for any question you may have!

My aim is to help as many people achieve their goal of learning English. 10+ years of tutoring experience(classroom and 1-1). Have taught from kindergarten to senior secondary as well as doing communication and pronunciation correction with adults.
I will start were you are … ABC's, colours, numbers and beginner reading OR reading with comprehension, grammar and sentence structure or just plain communication focusing on pronunciation, tenses, and general grammar.
For the little ones I use flash cards, puppets, star chart, etc to keep them involved and interested in the lesson. For the older students I find out where their interests lay, and what their requirements are, and work my lessons around that. As long as you are interested, you will learn.
