The video tutorial introduces the letter C, highlighting its unique feature of having two distinct sounds: the hard C and the soft C. The soft C sounds like an 'S' when followed by the letters E, I, or Y, as demonstrated with words like 'scent', 'cereal', and 'celery'. The hard C, on the other hand, sounds like a 'K' when followed by any other letter, as shown in words like 'candle', 'castle', and 'candy'. The video provides numerous examples to help learners distinguish between the two sounds effectively.
