Unit 13 focused on native English speaker’s pronunciation and methods to teach pronunciation, particularly intonation and stress. As a native speaker, before reading this unit, I did not actively recognize the importance of teaching pronunciation; however, by working through this unit I have learned that intonation and stress varies by context and carries a lot of meaning. For example, a sentence can elicit a response if said in a fall/rise manner or can indicate the end of a statement if said in a rise/fall manner. Further, I have learned how to read the phonemic symbols, as seen in the dictionary. Utilizing these symbols in the classroom may be very useful when discussing pronunciation.
