Teaching the Notes and Melodies: Incorporating Effective Pronunciation Instruction into EL Lessons

Date: Wednesday, November 9, 2022

Time: 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. Central Standard Time

Location: In person at Literacy Minnesota, 700 Raymond Avenue, Suite 180, St. Paul, MN 55114. Masking is optional.

Cost: There is no fee for this training, but your tax-deductible donation will support our tutor training program and literacy learners across Minnesota!

Presenter: Andrea Echelberger (she/her), Literacy Instructor, Robbinsdale Adult Academic Program. About Andrea.

Description: English pronunciation is a challenge for teachers and learners alike! In order for learners to be able to add the features of English pronunciation to their speaking toolbox, they need explicit instruction so that they can hear and produce the target sounds and rhythms. In this in-person training, learn about techniques to teach pronunciation that will be helpful for learners from a variety of language backgrounds and English language levels, and multisensory activities that can be used during in-person or remote instruction that go far beyond “listen and repeat.” The training will also discuss the importance of focusing on intelligibility in contrast to accent reduction, and provide suggestions for incorporating the techniques and activities into existing curriculum rather than stand-alone classes.

CEUs will be emailed to participants after the webinar, typically within 1-2 business days. Please note that if you miss more than 15 minutes of the session, we are unable to issue you CEUs or count your attendance towards a certificate.

If your schedule changes and you are no longer able to attend, please check our training calendar for other dates or video trainings. Teaching the Notes and Melodies: Incorporating Effective Pronunciation Instruction into EL Lessons is NOT currently available as a recording but is offered periodically. Please watch the calendar for upcoming dates.
