This week was week one of a two-week intensive workshop about PRONUNCIATION! Good accent and pronunciation is a big challenge for students and requires constant work. Be persistent and you will start to lose that Spanish accent!
To start, check out any of these recommended pronunciation resources:
For original version, listen to an audio from TEDTalks. Turn on the interactive transcript and try "shadow reading" which means reading along with the speaker.
Reading: Learners can read this article about how to improve your pronunciation.
For something in original version, try an article about the linguistics of youtube voice.
Writing: This week for writing please make a plan for pronunciation practice! What can you do to improve your pronunciation in your daily study routine? For extra points, record yourself reading your writing out loud and send it to me via whatsapp or email. Best, Kelly
