Course description and objectives
The main goal of this course is to provide you with tools for immediate improvement in your pronunciation as well as a solid, yet concise, theoretical background on Phonetics.
Our approach to Phonetics will be a brain friendly, fun and practical one, making sure you just get just the basic theory to base your decisions on while offering plenty of practice to achieve your goals successfully.
This Pronunciation and Phonetics Course is designed for students of teaching training courses, translation courses, or any student of English with at least an intermediate level of language.
