Course Summary

This short, highly intensive methodology and language improvement course is for teachers who wish to learn a wide variety of creative and motivating ways to teach pronunciation. You will also work on and improve your own pronunciation.

What are the key course contents?

Topics include:
• Teaching and learning the sounds of English (phonemes) in an interesting, learner centered manner.
• Creative techniques and approaches for teaching and learning stress, rhythm and intonation.
• How to use simple drama techniques to make teaching and learning pronunciation more enjoyable and memorable.
• How to incorporate pronunciation work into grammar and vocabulary lessons.
• Examining and adapting pronunciation materials.
• Intelligibility or “native speaker perfection?” Models and objectives in pronunciation teaching.

Is this the right course for me?

• Yes - if you want to participate in an energising, one-week methodology and language improvement course.
• Yes - if you feel you only have a limited range of approaches for teaching pronunciation and want to widen it in a short period of time.
• Yes - if you want to improve your own pronunciation while at the same time learn how to teach it creatively, effectively and with more confidence

If this is not the course for you, please consider one of the following:
