Contractions in English - How to Sound More Natural and effortless

Download the English contractions practice sheet and the audio: https://bit.ly/3GG9fxP
Contractions are words and phrases that are shortened by dropping sounds (in writing and in speaking). Contractions are all the you'd, she'll, we’re, isn't etc.
These contractions allow us to signal our listeners what is more important and what is less, and that makes our communication in English clearer.
For non-native speakers, these contractions might be a bit confusing.
Have you ever thought to yourself, "these short words are not clear enough when they come out of MY mouth"? Do you find yourself separating them because of that? Many learners of English as a second language feel like that but actually, the truth is you can use these contractions, and sound clearer! In this video, I’ll tell you how to use contractions in speaking and how to pronounce the most common contractions in English.
