QUOTE
A teacher is a
compass that
activates the magnets
of curiosity,
knowledge, and
wisdom in the pupils.
Helping learners hear and produce
The teachers should help their students to
pick up the sound system of the language by
listening to them. However, for speakers of a
second language to "hear" and say sounds in
the language they are learning.
Providing feedback
Providing feedback to the student regarding his or
her work with you is the most powerful teaching
tool you have in the pronunciation. It is also the
area most commonly cited as lacking when
students can not pronunciation.
Example : Quizzes and tests can be prepared by
using text, graphics, video and audio materials.
These quizzes are graded automatically.
BUILDING AWARENESS AND CONCERN
The students need recognize the message
of a word, the pitch of voice can affect
this.
The teachers should make students aware
of the available resources to send a spoken
message.
STABLISH PRIORITIES
Some areas of pronunciation may be much more
important than others in the classroom if one
considers errors that directly affect learners’
intelligibility so we as teacher have to take as a
priority to that student that is not learning in the same
ways us others. Therefore we can focus more in that
student and ask the other student help the one is
learning less. The most important thing is that we
have to search the best technique for teaching that
student
We can use to increase their pronunciation by listen to
music , videos, stories. etc
PLANNING VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES
Teachers plan for different reasons;
1) To satisfy immediate psychological needs, such as
increasing one’s sense of security, reoccurring anxiety.
2) to prepare themselves and materials for instruction.
3) to create a framework that will guide the interactive phase
of instruction.
4) Some teachers plan because they are required by
administrators to submit written plans on a regular basis.
1:- In general the best way to improve
pronunciation is to speak English daily and to
find opportunities to be exposed to the
language as much as possible.
The sounds of the English language
can be written down using the
International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)
which is used in all Longman
dictionaries. Use of minimal pair
perception exercises (ship/sheep, ten
/then) helps students learn the sounds
of English.
The first step in any successful
pronunciation lesson is to give your
students the opportunity to imitate.
Most often, you will be the model that
your students will copy, but you can
also use other sources.
Speech processing is one of the
largest growing research areas in
signal processing.
Each year billions of pounds are
being spent on supporting research in
speech processing.
By making comparisons with the nearest
sound in the student`s native language.
Perhaps the greatest difference between
English and Spanish is that Spanish has
only five vowel sounds while English has
more than 14, depending on regional
dialects. This is the reason Spanish
speakers have difficulty differentiating
between vowel phonemes in words like seat
and sit.
The students must practice the
pronunciation the same way that
another skills, pronunciation must be
integrated to communicative language
work.
For a learner it need to practice and repeat
as many times they can by using different
techniques to increase their a fluently
pronunciation.
Give short but regular bursts of treatment but regularly for
teaching the pronunciation according the student´s necessities
something like the follow examples.
Vowel Length
Mouth Positions
Practice Listening
Write Tongue Twisters
Feedback
Bring students gradually from controlled cognitively
performance to automatic performance.
Teachers of students learning English should be
aware that the goal of improving pronunciation for
many learners is mutual intelligibility, not perfection.
When the students say something, use that student
as a model and encourage everyone to listen careful.
