88. Pronunciation, Grammar and Confidence in English - You ask, I answer!

One of my favorite things to do is to answer the questions of my students and audience, and in this episode this is exactly what I’m going to do. And if you know me by now, you know that to every question there’s always more than just a simple answer. This is why I’m sure you’ll find something valuable for you (even though it wasn’t you who asked the question). If you want to ask me a question, you can submit it here: https://hadarshemesh.com/ask-hadar/ Here's the list of the questions with timecodes: 6:18 - Wei Zeng "My problem is I can't use he/she and his/her correctly without thinking in speaking. It sounds silly. Could you give me some suggestions or design a drill to improve it?” 18:11 - Tomoko Nakayama “How do you pronounce ‘year’? It’s so hard to pronounce ‘year’. My ‘year’ sounds like ‘ear’, and I keep practicing it.” 23:17 - Nejla Yber “I'm from Turkey and I'm living in Seattle, WA, for about 5 years. l went to ESL class but l could not finish because l started work. Now l have more time to study but I cannot concentrate on it. Please tell me, how can l write and speak clearly English?” List of the episodes and useful resources mentioned:
