"Teaching English Pronunciation (A-Z) in Asia" will equip teachers who are teaching English as a second language with basic phonetic skills so that they can become a more fruitful teacher. This course takes an in depth look at the different aspects of native Asian language articulation and how this relates to acquiring English as a second (or foreign) language. We will look at native Asian s language and try to establish why certain English sounds can not be made by these students. Intonation and common pronunciation errors made by native people from Korea, Japan and China will be covered.
