Communication

Improver

An improver-level English course covering pronunciation, stress, rhythm and intonation through guided listening, articulation practice and conversation activities.

About this course

The course focuses on English vowel and consonant sounds, word stress, weak forms and sentence rhythm. Learners examine how intonation and pitch can convey meaning, politeness and emotion, while developing clearer articulation and ways to identify and correct their own speech patterns. Teaching combines guided phonetic listening, targeted mouth-articulation drills and interactive classroom conversation practice. Structured independent study extends the guided sessions and provides opportunities to apply self-monitoring techniques to spoken English.
