Every Teacher Should Feel Good About Teaching Pronunciation 🧵 Every teacher can and should feel confident teaching pronunciation. Students need real-life models, not just the 'prestige accents' from recordings. That was the message driven home by Robin Walker in our conversation for the #TeacherTalkingTime Podcast. The traditional model of teaching pronunciation often excludes non-native accents, limiting both students and teachers. Robing argues that adopting an international intelligibility approach empowers everyone, while recognizing that effective communication transcends specific accents. And your experience matters. As a teacher, your own journey with English pronunciation is invaluable. You've navigated the same challenges your students face, which honestly makes you an ideal role model. Another important takeaway is this 👉 effective pronunciation teaching isn't about perfection; it's about intelligibility. Students need to be understood in diverse settings, and a variety of accents should be embraced as part of the learning process. But how do we go about doing that? By encouraging students to bring examples of English speakers they admire. This approach not only diversifies the learning experience but also helps students develop a personal connection to the language, which fosters a more engaging and inclusive environment. So, when it comes to teaching pronunciation, it is more than drilling sounds—it's about empowering students to communicate confidently in the real world. As teachers, embracing our unique accents and experiences makes us effective guides in our students' language learning journeys.
