Descripció i   Metodologia:   Course organized in collaboration with APAC.

Pronunciation is an extremely important language skill which is often regarded as difficult and therefore overlooked. Truth be told, poor pronunciation can cause a breakdown in communication. That is why, an early introduction of selected phonetic symbols through characters that I have created at early stages such as years 5 or 6 can bring an end to future embarrassing misunderstandings.

This course will be devoted to English vowel and consonant sounds, putting emphasis on the ones Catalan/Spanish speakers tend to mispronounce. It will provide activities to improve pronunciation in a fun way through tongue twisters, nursery rhymes, homophone dominoes, silent letters, etc. Other relevant aspects such as syllable and word stress, rhythm, connected speech and different English accents will be covered.

The goal of the course is doubtless to help primary school teachers become more confident in their pronunciation and therefore start using systematically activities that focus
