Pronunciation and Phonology in the EFL Classroom - International Phonetic Alphabet
A better way to go about imparting how to make sounds or what sounds are utilized in a word, is this international phonemic alphabet. Now we have as mentioned one symbol being used in all the words which share that same sound. Now once we get a little bit more familiar with our phonemic alphabet we can also show how different our different sounds can be as in this symbol for ?ooh?, this symbol for ?ow? and this symbol for ?uh?.
Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.
I found this lesson to be more straight forward and enjoyable compared to the last two. It is important when getting a new student to evaluate where they are starting at in order to see if there is progress; and if there is not significant progress then to see what needs to change.Thanks to this unit I now feel more confident of my knowledge of present tenses. The lesson was very well stated, provided a lot of examples and has even given a few ideas on how to practice and learn the present tenses trough games and activities. It was very helpful and explicit.This course was very helpful. I was able to learn how to navigate through jobs and apply for jobs In the future. Personally, I wish there were more websites where other people can apply for English teaching jobs provided on the exam. Overall the course was very interesting to take.
