General description and relevant information

This course provides a general overview of the relevance of pronunciation in the EFL class. We will deal with issues having to do with the teacher's role in the teaching of pronunciation and the importance of awareness in developing proper pronunciation habits. We will review the sound system of English, with special emphasis on those aspects that are problematic for learners of different languages, with a special focus on Spanish/Catalan learners. We will also review some methodological aspects in the teaching of pronunciation and we will explore a variety of activities and tasks that can lead to the effective acquisition of English pronunciation.
