Course Description
This is the first course in a series of two courses for the non-native
English speaker who has basic fluency in the English language but who wants
professional guidance to improve pronunciation accuracy. Specialized
pronunciation instruction covers discourse-level and some word-level
topics, providing controlled and communicative practice geared to enable
student self-monitoring and skill-building. A select number of vowel and
consonant problems common among the course participants will also be
covered as time permits.

Said: Pronunciation for Clear Communication. Second edition. Boston: Heinle & Heinle, 2001.

Note: The campus bookstore will not provide refunds for text/CD
packages that have been opened. If you have NOT already been advised by a
member of the ELP faculty that ELP 101 is an appropriate class for you, you
may want to wait until after the first class meeting before buying or
opening the Well Said text/CD package. On the first day of class, a
diagnostic assessment will be given to determine whether each student is
appropriately placed in ELP 101. You will be notified about the result
before the second class meeting.
