Hi English Learners,
After a long layoff, I’ve finally published another video lesson.
Recently, I’ve been working on a grammar guide for academic writing (yes, I’m writing a book!), but it’s been a while since I published anything new to YouTube.
In the last month or so, I’ve done a series of lessons with some students and noticed the pronunciation of [ed] on regular verbs and ed-adjectives has needed some work, so I put my book on hold to develop a video lesson to address this problem.
For your convenience, I’ve embedded the video here, so you can give it a watch and pick up or refresh the phonetic rules that govern how [ED] is pronounced.
Additionally, I’ve included some free downloadable resources to help you practice this point of pronunciation.
You can watch the video here:

Please remember to like and share the video to your socials.
All the best!
Jon

After graduation, he went on to become a financial advisor where he learned financial sales and management training. In 2003, he decided to take a gap year, going to teach English in Poland which eventually stretched into 3 years. Upon returning to Los Angeles in 2006, he worked in West Los Angeles for an investment management firm where he spent another 4 years in a financial and investment environment. Ultimately, though, his love for teaching led him to move back to Poland where he founded his business Native 1 English Learning. Now he operates a private teaching practice, posts articles and lessons on his blog, creates online courses, and publishes YouTube video English lessons.
