DSLA-0340 Accent Reduction (ESL)

This course is designed for non-native speakers of English who, despite knowledge of English, experience difficulty in pronouncing words and phrases correctly. It consists of exercises to shape and articulate correct consonant and vowel sounds in words and phrases using English rhythm, intonation, and pitch patterns. This course will not result in accent-free speech,but it will improve the speaker's clarity and phrasing so that English speakers will more readily understand the non-native speaker. This course differs from DSLA-0323 in that it focuses on pronunciation rather than vocabulary acquisition. Offered on Central Campus only.
