'Teach Yourself Heath' is the name of a one-sided flexi-disc by Monty Python which was given away free with issue 27 of ZigZag magazine in December 1972 and also included inside initial copies of their third album Monty Python's Previous Record.

Billed as "Home Tutor Language Course, Number 14 - An invaluable introduction for Beginners to the Theory and Practice of Heath", the track is introduced by Michael Palin after which Eric Idle is heard teaching the listener how to mimic the speech patterns of the then British Prime Minister Edward Heath. Real extracts of Heath's voice are used to demonstrate.

The track was released on CD in 2006 as part of the bonus tracks on the special edition release of Monty Python's Previous Record
