Shadowing
Find a short audio clip that you enjoy/find interesting.
Listen carefully to the audio.
Play the audio again and repeat what is being said simultaneously or a fraction of a second after the original speaker.
This technique will help you build word stress and intonation.
What are you currently doing?
Wherever you are, describe what you see. Focus on creating collocations and short phrases first, then create longer sentences.
Sing a song
Find a song you enjoy that is in English – find the lyrics and practice singing along.
Singing helps you learn the following pronunciation features:
- melody
- intonation
- connected speech
- contractions
- weak sounds
Difficult things to say
Tongue twisters help you focus on specific sounds.
A very famous example: “She sells seashells on the seashore.“
