Tongue Twisters to Improve Your English Pronunciation

Hi, I’m Mikey.

Welcome to Oxford Online English!

In this lesson, you can practice your English pronunciation with some challenging tongue

twisters.

You’ll see six tongue twisters, and you’ll hear each one four times.

Each time, you should pause the video and try to repeat the tongue twister.

Each time you hear a tongue twister, it will get faster.

Look for the red highlights, which will show you the pronunciation point which each tongue

twister is testing.

Ready?
