TEACHING ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION W AUDIO-CD - HOL...

Pronunciation teaching has sometimes been referred to as the 'Cinderella of language teaching'
implying that  like Cinderella in the folk tale  it has come to be neglected  compared to her
'jealous sisters' lexis  grammar and culture. One reason for this neglect is that many teachers
do not feel adequately equipped to teach pronunciation beyond giving a few simple instructions
like 'Put your tongue between your teeth to form the th-sound'. This book is an accessible
introduction to many of the aspects that are involved in teaching English pronunciation. It
starts out with the question of why pronunciation matters in the first place  looks at the
models to be aimed at  reviews the factors that influence pronunciation  introduces methods and
tools for pronunciation teaching and discusses the most important specific problems that
learners of English with a German-language background (be it L1 or L2) have. It comes with a CD
that contains a number of samples of German-influenced English for discussion and research.
