To produce the sound Clench your teeth together lightly and pull your tongue away from them. Then push air though them, whilst voicing out.
How to Pronounce it.
The ʒ sound is from the ‘Consonants Pairs’ group and it is called the ‘Voiced palato-alveolar sibilant’. This means that you create friction through clenched teeth by directing air flow through a narrow channel formed along the middle of the tongue

Many teachers don't teach the phoneme /ʒ/ explicitly in the belief that students will imitate the teacher. However most Spanish speakers can't hear the difference between /ʒ/ and /ʃ/ and they are not aware that vision /ˈvɪʒən/ and mission /ˈmɪʃən/ don't rhyme.
