Abstract

Many times we hear people speak Lebanese English, French English, or any form of English except proper English. Appropriate articulation and pronunciation are a major problem for many. The older the individuals grow, the more difficult it becomes to correct their “fossilized” wrong pronunciation. This one-hour workshop aims at helping you teach your students/kids proper English pronunciation using simplified phonetics since grade ONE. Ultimately, students will not only read English properly alone but also understand better the language used in their math and science courses. Since most schools focus mainly on reading and writing English, what could be more valuable then encourage students to develop their proficiency in the spoken language too?

Target audience: ALL teachers and coordinators at ALL levels.
