課程概述

In the pronunciation class, English phonetic alphabet and the relationship between pronunciation and spelling will be introduced. The pronunciation of each individual vowel or consonant (singly and in various settings) will be presented, and stress and intonation patterns will be explained. The students will get opportunities to demonstrate how well they can imitate the pronunciation. Through practice, they will become more conscious of their mistakes and better able to monitor their own speech. It is hoped that carryover of pronunciation skills into communication is not left to chance. In addition, how stress, rhythm, and intonation influence the intelligibility of English will be emphasized.
