This short course will help you to:

  • present the English sound system and the phonemic symbols
  • raise awareness of how phonetic differences between English and other languages may lead to communication breakdown and to recognise that not all differences are a source of difficulty
  • exemplify and analyse selected differences with a view to applying this knowledge to teaching practice
  • dispel common myths about pronunciation teaching
  • consider how to apply methods and techniques to a potential future teaching situation
  • consider ways in which a non-native English teacher can provide native-speaker models for students
