English pronunciation and spelling are very tricky - the same letter can be pronounced in different ways, and the same sound can be spelled with different letters.
Today you're going to learn about a common pronunciation mistake that students make with the letter "U," and practice words with the long and short U sounds.
I first noticed this mistake when I was doing evaluations for students in my Pronunciation and Shadowing Courses.
Everyone who takes one of those courses gets feedback from me on their pronunciation!
