Course on English Phonetics and Phonology: Pronunciation Instruction for Brazilians
Description of the course: In this course, students will be introduced to the sound system of English, with a focus on the main transfer processes shown by Brazilian learners in the acquisition of L2 pronunciation. The course aims to provide both a theoretical and a practical background in English Phonetics and Phonology, so that participants can not only improve their own pronunciation, but also make use of the theoretical information to guide their teaching practice.
