P_F_B_V Tongue Twisters are great coordination exercises to improve your English pronunciation.
/B/ and /V/ are tricky for Spanish speakers because their language doesn't use a different sound for /V/. English does.
Make sure to put your lips in the correct place for each Tongue Twister. Your muscles must be strong to clearly articulate the words to be easily understood when you speak English.

/P/ and /B/ use both lips to create the sound, the only difference is in the air. /P/ is voiceless - Air only
/B/ is voiced - vibration
/F/ and /V/ use the same lip movement, but
/F/ is voiceless - Air only
/V/ is voiced - vibration
