Description

Learn to articulate the /w/ sound with precision. This course includes a series of exercises to help you develop confidence in articulating words and phrases that contain the /w/ sound.The /w/ sound requires careful coordination and controlled movement of the lips. Non-native speakers can have a tendency to open their lips too quickly, resulting in a ballistic movement that affects their ability to articulate this sound correctly. This course emphasizes slow, deliberate practice to build the necessary muscle memory and control to articulate the /w/ sound with precision.We begin with an introduction to the /w/ sound, it's usage within vocabulary, as well as its function as a glide vowel in connected speech. You'll learn how to position the articulators correctly, focusing on the rounding of the lips and the controlled flow of air that allows the /w/ sound to resonate correctly. The course progresses through a series of structured exercises, including placement drills, articulation practice, word repetition, and phrase repetition exercises. We'll also practise the /w/ sound as a glide vowel that allows natural connected speech.Having taught English pronunciation for years, I've observed that the /w/ sound is often a stumbling block for learners. It's a sound that requires dedicated attention, more than a passing mention in a broader pronunciation course. That's why I created this focused mini-course, to provide detailed instruction and targeted practice needed to truly master the /w/ sound. Let's begin!!

Who this course is for

Non-native English speakers who wish to master the /w/ sound of Received Pronunciation.
