Hello Tom! I am a high school English teacher from "across the pond" and an avowed Anglophile. I so enjoy all of your videos. I've used some of your work in a Public Speaking course I've taught in the past (British vs. American pronunciations). Your work is extremely helpful to most, but especially for non-English speakers. You are a born instructor and a charming young man! I have your book, "A Really British Guide to English," and thanks to you, I stunned my family by knowing an answer on the American game show, "Jeopardy" about the meaning of "Bob's your uncle." Ha ha!
This course is a MUST! The Conversations section sounds particularly interesting and great for listening practice.

Brigthon is in most examples!

Hello there! English spelling and pronunciation are a nightmare to me (or for me?) and the rest of the world, I think

Another British stereotype would be punctuality as well as dry/black humour with loads of sarcasm, you have to read between the lines to understand it and a good example of it would be Monty Python.
