American English

Teaching Pronunciation, drawing on current theory and practice, offers current and prospective teachers of English a comprehensive treatment of pronunciation pedagogy. The text provides an overview of teaching issues related to methodologies and second language acquisition research. It has a thorough grounding in the sound system of North American English, and contains insights into how this sound system intersects with listening, morphology, and spelling. It also contains diagnostic tools, assessment measures, and suggestions for syllabus design. Discussion questions encourage readers to draw on their personal language learning and teaching experiences as they conclude each chapter. Follow-up exercises guide teachers in developing a range of classroom activities within a communicative framework.
