Teaching English Pronunciation

Teaching English Pronunciation

In this episode of the Language on the Move podcast Dr Hanna Torsh talks to Lindsay McMahon, founder of the All Ears English Podcast, about pronunciation teaching for global English.

What does it mean to speak well? And what does it mean to teach others to speak English well? What does good English sound like for you?

These are questions which teachers of English, as a first, second or foreign language and everything in-between, need to grapple with.

In the interview, Hanna and Lindsay talk about their approach to English language teaching, connection not perfection, and how this translates to a focus on pronunciation which is suited for the needs of students. This means using authentic interactions as much as possible, and working to change minds about the value of ‘native’ accents if most of your interactions are actually using English in global contexts with other multilingual speakers rather than in inner-circle countries with first language speakers. Finally, they touch briefly on what the surge in speech technologies means for teaching and learning pronunciation.
