|
|
My adult beginners want help with their pronunciation. I am aware that the problems with pronunciation differs from country to country, the f sound being an example of a sound that the Koreans struggle with. Does anyone have any hints re teaching activities and games that will help the Koreans in particular to start getting it right? |

Not easy to pronounce foreign sounds I guess other than practice. Koreans have trouble with quite a few English sounds, like "f" and "z" and most consonant blends. One little activity may be to try tongue twisters? It could be fun. |

Lots of good materials are available for this....
If you need help with the basics of how to produce the sounds the Sound Foundations by Adrian Underhill is a good start.
