ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION FOR NON-NATIVE SPEAKERS OF ENGLISH

UNDERSTAND AND ACQUIRE RECEIVED PRONUNCIATION

Many well qualified and highly motivated foreign workers find that a lack of clarity and confidence in Standard English Pronunciation can cause them stress, confusion and sometimes loss of income and promotion in the workplace. Many are keen to grasp the subtleties of intonation and phrasing for example but do not have the time or resources to work on this specific aspect of language acquisition.
