Ten ways to find out your students’ REAL pronunciation problems
What are our students’ real pronunciation needs? Here, Damien Herlihy looks at 10 ideas from ETpedia Pronunciation that can help you find out. He explains how he has used these tips and activities in his own teaching practice, and suggests how you can do the same.
In this vlog post for Pavilion ELT, Damien Herlihy turns his focus to Pavilion’s ETpedia Series. This year, the series is celebrating its 10th anniversary, so each of Damien’s vlogs will look in more detail at one book from the series. From there, Damien will zoom in to focus in more detail on a list of 10 ideas, and relate them to his own classroom experiences.
In this episode, he looks at the most recent title in the series, ETpedia Pronunciation. Written by John Hughes and Gerard Erasmus, this book gives 500 practical ideas on pronunciation both in the classroom and online. Here, Damien takes a deep dive toe explore how we can find what our students’ pronunciation needs are.
We would love to know your experiences with pronunciation in the classroom, as well as hearing how this post has made you reflect on your own teaching and/or which ideas you have found most useful. Do let us know in the comments under the vlog or below our shares on the Pavilion ELT social media.
