This unit focuses on the teaching of Pronunciation and Phonology. It suggests that while this is an important area of learning it can be often neglected. The way a sentence is spoken with the intonation and stress placed in different ways can communicate very different meanings. It is important for students to learn this, so they can communicate the exact meaning they want to convey. Pronunciation is important however perfection may never be reached and this may need to be accepted by the teacher. The teacher can offer a number of techniques to help facilitate correct pronunciation eg Tongue twisters , mouth diagrams and sound drills. Introducing the phonemic alphabet may help students gain a better pronunciation and help with learning new words, with the aid of a dictionary.I have learnt that stress in the sentence along with intonation is very important to teach the students. Also the way we link words or run the words into one eg wanna go ,will help the student speak the language in a native way.
