Vowel sounds
Hear the difference and say it clearly.
1Learn
English has more vowel sounds than letters. Short vs long matters: ship / sheep, full / fool, bit / beat. Hold long vowels longer — imagine stretching them.
2Say and compare
Read each line aloud, slowly, then at normal speed. The note tells you what to listen for in your own voice.
