@Mariel Liang I was thinking about your case, Mariel. Let me share my thoughts. I have a hypothesis that your "graNduation" and "traNcking" are related to your N and NG sounds, which are not really clear to you. -- Why does your N sneak in when you say "graNduation" -- because the position of the tongue for N and D sounds is basically the same -- Why does your NG sneak in when you say "traNcking" -- because the position of the tongue for NG and K/G sounds is basically the same. So make sure your N and NG sounds are stable and you can clearly distinguish their positions inside your mouth. If you're absolutely sure they are perfect, you can catch them (and kill 🔫) when they try to sneak in when you say words like graduation, tracking, and similar. What do you think, Coach @Shane Peterson? Kindly Mila

@Mina Min Anytime, Mina ❤️

@Amal Ta My pleasure, Amal! You got the point right away -- impressive!!

Overslept today -- I think it's because of the clock change in Europe. Saw the post about the New VIP lessons for April coming OUCH!! -- gotta keep up. I've got a ton of work for dear @Constance Tuballes -- hoping to finish it sooner rather than later.

@Taisei Koshida I also often used the microwave plate as a regular flat plate -- I like that it looks like a chunk of ice and feels heavy. And yeah, your food and the way you plate it always look like a work of art -- I'd title your post "Art Flowing Through Me."
