This unit covers how to teach pronunciation and phonology. The teaching of pronunciation is very important because it is often an area that foreign language speakers are not confident in. Phonology is the study of the physical properties of sound. The better we understand the phonology of the language we are teaching, the better we can teach the language. To help students pronounce specific sounds, the teacher can use their own mouth to emphasize certain parts of a word. Tongue twisters are a fun way to practice pronunciation. Teaching pronunciation can be an overlooked or underemphasized aspect of language teaching, but pronunciation is important for being a confident and fluid speaker.
