Beyond Repeat After Me

Teaching Pronunciation to English Learners

About this book

This engaging text clearly presents essential concepts that teachers need to guide their students toward clearly intelligible pronunciation and more effective communication skills. Based on a sound theoretical background, the book presents practical, imaginative ways to teach and practice pronunciation that go beyond a simple "Repeat after me." Recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all answer for pronunciation teaching, this book offers insights for adapting teaching techniques to a range of students and teaching situations: children or adults, beginners or advanced students, and learners worldwide, whether in English-speaking countries or areas where students seldom hear English outside of class. **This title also includes a companion website with online resources.**
