DESCRIZIONE CONTRIBUTO
Ray will do his best to reveal the secret of successful English language pronunciation learning and teaching! The good news is that this is not technical or complicated. He will quickly establish with you the typical components of an English language pronunciation syllabus and then discuss with you the order in which we might want to teach these elements and the relative priorities that they deserve.
He will then go on to clarify the important connection in English between grammar and pronunciation. Also with a particular focus on the grammatically determined role of stress in normal speech.

DESCRIZIONE CONTRIBUTO
EDUCO’s methodology follows the theories (and results) of many accredited linguists and classroom practitioners. This workshop will explore these theories using scripts, songs and drama based language activities, with emotions as the engine and drama techniques as the vehicle.
Using Educo’s holistic approach to learning, TEATRINO has for many years entertained and motivated students through TIE. TEATRINO puts into practice the theory that second language teaching should focus on encouraging ‘natural’ acquisition and providing input that emotionally stimulates the learner. The experience is memorable because the students are emotionally involved and having fun! With TEATRINO students acquire the linguistic skills they need for communication without realizing they are learning.
Drama is a learning medium rooted in a child’s experience of play and has a fundamental and valid place as a powerful ESL teaching tool. Educational practices and developments are definitely a ‘work in progress’, so lose your inhibitions, have fun, and Aspire to Inspire!
