    This absolutely drove me crazy. I couldn’t make it through one session due to the dragging of words- an ESL no no.

    Oh dear! Not sure what the fuss is but I'm a native speaker. There are many wonderful and valid accents in English and ESL students need to recognise and listen to a variety of these.
