Course Description

You will learn about and practice the "segmental" and "suprasegmental" elements of English.  Segmental elements of English include consonant and vowel sounds, and suprasegmentals include stress, rhythm, focus words and intonation.  You will apply your knowledge to various speaking contexts, with a focus on producing highly comprehensible speech, and on identifying and correcting instances of mispronunciation. At the end of the course, you will make an academic presentation to peers, and will be prepared to take the SPEAK test, an institutional speaking assessment taken by many international students at UCR.
