Speak & Be Understood هذه الدورة تدرس باللغة الإنجليزية

تفاصيل الدورة

In this course, you will gain speaking tools which will help you communicate with confidence and clarity in English. We will look at key aspects of spoken English that will make you more clear to the listener, and highlight some of the language-specific obstacles, and tips to overcome them. 

Each pronunciation concept introduced is modeled with practice sentences and questions. We will identify word specific concepts, such as syllables and stress. We'll also work with key vowels and consonants that present challenge. Finally, we will work with sound-spelling discrepancies.

Audios and worksheets/handouts accompany all sections. This is a "practice" course, meaning that learning is experiential, and you will be expected to say aloud with repetition the exercises that present challenge to you in order to achieve permanent change in the clarity of your speech in English.

Depending on your particular pronunciation needs, plan to spend at least 6-weeks with the material. This does not mean 6 consecutive weeks going through the lectures, but rather, ongoing, daily mindful practice of the newly acquired speech patterns. This time and dedication will be necessary for these initially challenging speech features to become natural and automatic.

If native English speakers tend to misunderstand what you are saying, or ask you to repeat yourself regularly, this course will be instrumental in changing this. You will gain key tools for clearer speech, so that you can speak and be understood the first time.
