Visual Therapy; Get the VowelViz App

I've been on a blog hiatus but now I'm back to business.
If you have gotten the vowelviz app great, if you haven't you should consider it.
Watch the demos.  It's like getting a mini vowel lessons while you learn the app. The vowelviz app is primarily for vowels across the linguistic hierarchy.   It's  great for vowels, diphthongs, and many vocalic /r/ words, phrases and sentences.
