Pronunciation Teaching Methods for Elementary School English Teachers

Intensive Lecture "How to Use Audio Materials Effectively"

From 2020, English education at elementary schools has become compulsory for grades 3 to 6.In elementary school English education, it is important to acquire communication skills, and first of all, it is important to "listen" and "speak" correctly.In addition, by exposing children to correct pronunciation while they are young, they will acquire correct pronunciation and listening skills, which will be of great help in their subsequent English learning.
In this course, we will use CD and DVD teaching materials to teach you three effective methods of teaching voice, such as jingles and chants, so that you can teach pronunciation effectively.In the first half, you will learn how to pronounce and the appropriate sounds, and learn and practice your own pronunciation problems and how to improve them.In the second half, you will learn how to actually tell elementary school students.
