Rules that start to matter here

Why a tutor

Learn this with someone listening

The Qaida is the one stage where self-teaching reliably goes wrong, because an error in a letter sound is invisible to the person making it. A tutor hears it on the first attempt.

Learn it with a tutor listening

Reading a lesson is useful. Having someone correct the sound as you make it is what fixes pronunciation.
