Hi James,
Great lessons man. I am new in USA and i am sure these are going to help me alot to improve my English language and also it correct pronounciation. I have a question for you. You have mentioned that sometimes “ed” is pronounced as “t”, now here is my question, How can we know that which word ending with “ed” will pronounce as “t”?.

Hi james, I’m Jack.
Actually, I already replyed something on the Forum but there’s no answer. As far as I said, you and rebecca have great skill to teach
English. I bet it. By the way, I have a favor.
First of all, can I watch your lesson frequently? I mean new lesson is uploaded a quite long time. I wanna watch your lesson once or twice
a week even if you’re so busy please.
Second, here is a few lesson for advanced group compared to any
level of group. That’s all.

Anyway, I completely appreciate your lesson. See you later. ^^

Hi James! This is a great lesson and all the series as well. I don’t understand why so little commentaries. In this series you spoke slowly and very clear for me. I will listen this videos many times again. Thank you!

Hi Jimes and thanks for your lessons!
I’d like to ask you a question about the ‘t’ sound for the past tense of verbs.
How could I know whether I have to pronounce it like a ‘t’ or like a ‘d’ sound? Is there any rule?

hello friend you know your lessons are appreciated here in Morocco. As far as the “t” pronounciation i can add the following:
ss,sh,ch,ck, k,p +ed = T
I THINK THIS ADDITION MAY HELP TO PRONOUNCE THE ED A T FOR SOME READERS .
