Pronunciation Course for Teachers: putting theory into practice
This practical course on pronunciation intends to develop participants' understanding of the IPA (International Phonemic Alphabet) and awareness of WHERE & HOW sounds are made. You will be exposed to new, creative and engaging ways to use the IPA phonemic chart based on Adrian Underhill's approach. The course aims to provide teachers with a wide repertoire of techniques and hands-on activities that will make pronunciation a successful and enjoyable focus in their classes. Activities with songs, videos and games will be shared.
It's a course for Brazilian teachers of EFL, and also native speakers of English who want to develop their own pronunciation and also improve the way they teach it.
