Why this one is hard
W and CH alternate while “witch” and “watch” differ by a single vowel. Losing your place is the usual failure.
How to practise it
- 1
Say it once, slowly
Read the whole line aloud at half speed. Get every sound correct before you think about pace.
- 2
Break it into chunks
Split the line into two or three pieces. Repeat each piece on its own until it comes out clean every time.
- 3
Join the chunks back up
Say the full line again, still slowly. Accuracy first — speed is worth nothing if the words are wrong.
- 4
Start the timer
Hit start and push your pace. You need 15 clean repetitions in 60 seconds to pass medium.
