I'm a 12-year-old girl from Myanmar(Burma). I'm the only one who's really interested in British English and has a silly accent in my class. Some of my friends think that i can never speak English fluently. That hurts me. But when i saw your videos, i just realized that i could try My Best to speak fluent English. Thank you for teaching and sharing us. Sir.

Well, at least in written form, your English looks fantastic. So your friends are probably just jealous.

@Athkia Ibnath Many thanks and yes, i often watch harry potter and other brit movies in order to improve my british english and it's working but for my speaking skill, i have to talk with random ppl in discord vcs. Also, you're absolutely correct. Lots of ppl seem to have taken an interest in British english cos of this channel. I mean, he's a wonderful teacher so ofc it's no surprise and his accent is extremely clear to understand. Btw, sorry for replying after a year, i hope everything's going well for you

DJ in my case(non-native), it took about 2 or 3 months maybe...? I watched lots of ‘British English explaining’ videos! Good luck

@@Mrcelebrity07 I took like 3 or 4 months. I don't actually know, I just did lol But that's the time you take to do it, even less it depends on how hard you work on it.
Yes, it is possible to change your accent even though you're fluent! I have always been speaking with an American accent (the one that we learn in my french school). But these summer holidays, I started meeting loads of british people, and one day I said to myself that I absolutely had to get my accent to sound like theirs. And because I spent so much time with british people, I managed to learn the basics of the accent in one week! Obviously it wasn't perfect after one week but now I go on videos like these from here and there to perfect it, especially videos from ETJ! Thank you for everything Eliott, you're the best teacher ever!
Thank you so much Elliot, you're touching the really important topics, you are the first and the only teacher on youtube, who's explaining the accent so detailed ))
After watching ETJ english, I feel like i found a new world. Thank you elliott!!!

Hello ETJ,I always watch your videos and get inspired much to learn british english.I m a language lover
I'm french, lived in the UK for a year and living in Canada for 2 now. Love your channel! It's much more easier for me to use the british accent despite being exposed to the north american accent. Just being différent ! Curious to hear you talking french though! Cheers
Thank you Elliot! I'm from China, I really like your accent, I'm trying to learn it ,thank you for your sharing. Thanks a lot
Love the way you teach and u are adorable.. really enjoy to watch and listen to you u teach so well ..loads of love from India 😍
Well done!! Mr Elliot 👏👏
Hey ! Elliot I am the student linguastics , your videos really help me a lot ...... keep it up
At first, I thought the British accent is difficult to listen and pronounce but you can make it easier to touch it. Great Video!!!!
When I hear you I think you are a Cambridge translator .. Thank you you are the best ...
It has been a utterly splendid, exquisite and flawless lesson. I'm particularly joyful , blissful and elated with that opulent topic. It is to my liking ; moreover, it appeals to me. I do adore Elliott’s speaking, and his charming accent., Hence, I present Elliott; undoubtedly; the King of British English. You are the quintessential of British English. Thank you very much indeed. Far thee well, dearest Prof. Andrea
I find changing between all kinds of accents when speaking my different languages is great fun! I do it all the time. It's like singing, learning new notes. :)
Immensely grateful ETJ! Much ❤️ from Philippines 🇵🇭 😍❤️😍
I love your way to teach British accent 😍 I really wanna to speak like you..
You are truly a very gifted teacher, Elliot. Growing up in Israel, but loving the English culture, British pronunciation has been something of a hobby for me. Unfortunately, here it's considered fake to use it in academia, where I am, so I'm compelled to use the dull American accent in public. But I thoroughly enjoy your fantastic videos!!! And cool glasses, BTW :-) Assaf
Hi 👋...after watching every video of your i start using it into practice and friend were impressed they ask me where did i learn... I simply said from the best teacher Elliot etj english

Hi Elliot I want to speak British English. My native language is Spanish I really like your accent is pretty nice. You're the best teacher ever have a good day😀

If you want to speak British English then forget about watching a lot of american shows which is making you use"pretty" that is american,English people use"quite"
Hello! I've always wanted to have a bristish accent and thanks you and your channel. I really find this interesting and informative as well. Fyi I had professor way back in my master's class he was from UK and I was fascinated by his accent very much.
You are great teacher ..
Thank you so much for teaching.
Thank you very much! I tried to pronounce words in the British way and I have changed my accent a lot. But my intonation, I guess, is very Chinese. I'm emulating the British intonation now. Your video is so helpful!
I am addicted to ur vids and voice

Thanks Elliot! Your videos reminded me of my time studying aboard in Southern England and I loved the accent! I should re-pickup my training in British accent! Btw, for some reason you also remind me of Kai Wong .... Lol (in a good way) God bless!

Hello teacher Elliott I really interest watching your videos especially the intonation I do prefer British more than others accents I could say British accent is precisely accurate
I really getting good accent from you, very thanks, take care😊
I like your videos. I started liking the british accent after I watched harrypotter movies.. I love that o and t sounds sooo much
I talk to people who have American accent often and I can tell that my accent was starting to sound like American sadly (🤭🤫) But watching your videos helps me to keep my accent sound more British-ish and I'm hanging on!
First time to know that vary is pronounced differently in American and British accent thanks alot

Spanish speaker here. Happy you're learning my language. I really love British accent. Like... really really. But I'm sad because I've never had a teacher who teaches with a British accent. Everything is American. I don't like that accent at all. So, my British accent it's kind of mixed. I want to sound a hundred percent British. I wish one day I can go to England and improve my accent :(
