This course is designed to help students whose native language is not English to gain functional intelligibility, functional communicability, increase self-confidence, and speech monitoring abilities. This entails a better control of their pronunciation during a communicative task, a faster recovery from a communicative breakdown, and the overall intelligibility during spontaneous speech. Course participants will also have the opportunity to improve aural sensitivity to the rhythmic quality of English by focusing on rhythm, stress, and intonation both separately and in the context of ‘natural’ speech as well as develop awareness of what is possible in English pronunciation through interaction with the instructor and with each other in pairs or small groups. The course will also use a variety of pronunciation and linguistic texts and related listening materials and videos, as well as pre-recorded samples of both native (different varieties) and non-native speech and will include role-play and presentations. |
