I expected this book Teaching Pronunciation: A Reference for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages to be more helpful for my needs as a current EFL teacher. However, the text is written more for a college level linquistic class of future ESL/EFL teachers.
Accurate and easy guide for teachers or anyone who desires to understand, apply and explain phonetics. Simple tables and pictures for better comprehension. Includes NAE transcription key (consonants, stressed and unstressed vowels), and it even covers the history of teaching pronunciation in the first chapters. Totally recomend!
This book is full of excellent, research based ideas for teaching pronunciation. I have used this book many times to create lessons for students of all ages and abilities. This is an essential reference book!
This with the accompanied cassette is really useful. It can be guaranteed that after a thorough study of the book and the cassette one can be a much better ESL teacher or student. You probably won't regret buying them. You would love to have them on your bookshelf as references and resources for many years.
This cassette accompanying the book is really useful. It covers some important things that the book doesn't have space for.
