IEL E-41 Pronunciation

font size decrease font size increase font size

Although English is a global language and is therefore produced with numerous acceptable rhythms and contours, nonnative speakers naturally wish to be understood in a variety of contexts, and particularly in international and multicultural situations where their interlocutors are also nonnative users of the language. Designed to promote the accurate articulation of ideas by the students enrolled in each class, this course utilizes a variety of media and texts that permit students to recognize and monitor their linguistic shortcomings and produce clear speech. Like all IEL courses, this class will reflect the term's theme and involve materials that flesh out consideration of the theme. If there are enough GSAS students to form a section at the respective levels of proficiency, other students will not be enrolled with them; if not, GSAS students will join other registrants at their level of proficiency in these classes.
