    Simplify your pronunciation
    My name is Masi. I immigrated to Canada in 2015. After listening to your podcast titled “ simplify your pronunciation” I realized the reason why, even after years of listening to radio and podcasts, I still struggle with pronouncing certain words and expressions like "cloths,", next person," and "just saying”, to mention a few. English is not my main language, and despite my efforts, I haven't been successful in finding a job due to my lack of fluency. I'd appreciate it if you could create more podcasts about pronunciation, similar to "Simplify Your Pronunciation." Thank you for sharing your skills with us, and I'm grateful for your time and generosity. Regards, Masi

    Easy to understand
    I just finished listen the episode for Japanese speaker (I’m a Japanese). Hader analyzed about Japanese pronunciation very well and explained the differences in-between American English and Japanese. Generally we Japanese don’t need to use tongue and lips when we speak Japanese. Mostly using the throat muscle. So it’s a challenging to connect each words smoothly and making the correct sound of consonants. I’m doing Hader’s “Sprints" too. It’s very helpful for correcting my English pronunciation.

    Love Hadar ‘s way of teaching.
    I love the way Hadar teaches English, but what I like the most is that she also talks about empowering mindset and how to overcome limiting beliefs and create new good habits . I am on lesson 12 of her new course My English Mindset and I already feel more confident not only in speaking English but in my personal life. It’s amazing , I am so grateful to have come across her podcast and social media. After 12 years living under a rock I see the light thanks to her. Blessings

    Hadar is simply a gift to any student that crosses their path.
    Hadar truly understands that the learning journey is elevated by having a human and mindful approach. There are many great English coaches in the industry, but Hadar’s approach stands out, not just because she’s good at teaching the material, but also because she’s relatable, unapologetic, and overall an amazing human being. Her focus is on helping others from the heart, and that’s something not many teachers know how to fully get across.

  • Ophelie in Lisbon
    A gem
    Hadar, your podcasts have been helping so much. I’m so much more confident since I know how to pronounce basic words. I really enjoy how you break down each word into syllables to truly understand how to pronounce them. It is very helpful and clear. I hope you are going to keep picking some pair words or words hard to pronounce. Thank you so much.

    The most amazing podcast
    I have watched many of Hadar’s videos, and she always try to bring us meaningful content that is going to help us to overcome our fears of speaking English in front of others. Through her podcasts, she coaches us to believe in ourselves and in our abilities to become fluent and speak freely. Hadar also teaches about mindset in all of her podcasts because she knows that it can be an obstacle to achieve our goals as English speakers. For that reason, I want to give thanks to Hadar and her team for bringing relevant and quality content directly to our ears so we can succeed in our journey as English learners. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart ☺️!!!

    Limitless fluency
    Not only am I hooked on your YouTube channel, but also on your podcast! What I love about it, is that I can set the right mindset in my English journey as well as drill the pronunciation of some quirky words on the go!!! I also find myself listening to Hadar’s episodes whenever my spirits are down. So, I guess your meditative and confident voice soothes my jangled nerves as well as boosts my knowledge! And not a single podcast has such a far-reaching impact on me. So definitely a shoutout to you, my to-go remedy!

    Hi
    Hello Hadar, I love your podcast and videos on YouTube. I am struggling with my speaking intonation, rhythm, music, and also stress words. Your shadowing tips are great. I have just started shadowing as my one of the teachers suggested me to do this. Could you suggest me which audios are best to do shadowing. Do your website have any resources for shadowing?

    About time
    Hi Hadar, I think it was about time to speak out. If they can do it to you. Can you just imagine how they will be with the person that it is learning to speak English. Too me, this kind of envious or even racists person. He is out the ligue any way😊

    Great podcast
    Greatest podcast English learners! I followed her from YouTube to here. Her teaching helps me a lot from whole sentence speaking to single word pronouncing. Most impressive classes I learned from her were thoughts group and intonation. Especially after using thoughts group, I found my speaking improved significantly. It should be greater if you can give more classes to explain thought group and give examples on it.
