Hi everyone - I want you to help me with the "schwa". If you can send me a clear explanation of what the schwa is and examples of it, I will be very happy.

When teaching pronunciation how important is it to teach the places and manner of articulation? How should it be taught and at what stage?

Hi! I've been wondering what chants are exactly. How do you use them? What is the advantage of using them in teaching English language at elementary schools?

I'm a student of language teaching at university and I'm looking at correcting students' pronunciation for my research.

In my teaching something puzzles me: the teaching materials we use are a mixture of American and British pronunciation. The result is some students learn a mixture of the two pronunciations.

Can anyone suggest how to encourage a student who has a relatively high command of the English language to slow down his speech.

Can anybody give me any ideas on how to teach the phonemic alphabet to teenagers learning English? How can I go about presenting this type of lesson? Any help is appreciated.
