I think aspiration is this energetic exhalation like an H sound after one of the consonants:

Marcus think of it as if твой whould be pronounced тwой without much pressure on the lips.
Even maybe without the pressure at all. That's what he means by "barely touched". There IS a big difference.

I agree with ThRobert, the English give more pressure and sharpness to the labial consonants (b, p, f, v) compared to their counterparts in Russian (Б, П, Ф, В), i.e. they sound much softer in...

No it's not the aspiration. It's a small hissing sound just like if a T and an S are pronounced at the same time, like a Russian Ц.

T and D are pronounced with a tiny hissing sound like Ts, Dz, or Tsh, Dzh. Listen to it:

Pay attention 1:30 today we're gonna work on T and D,...

All of them.
It goes throughout the whole text. Almost all of the Ts, Ds and Ih-s are wrong.

Learn how to pronounce T, D and the short Ih vowel, like I as in "sit" or "ship".
Other than that, it's okay to my ears, the accent is still here of course, but I assume it's pretty understandeable...
