DESCRIPTION
We will set goals for the English accent that you wish to develop both at a professional and at a personal level. We will analyse the 10 most common difficulties in English pronunciation (including commonly mispronounced words) and the effects that these difficulties may (inadvertently) have on the intelligibility and credibility of your accent. You will be given tools that help you analyse English pronunciation features and you will work on features in your own English accent accordingly.
Contact hours listed under a course description may vary due to the combination of lecture-based and independent work required for each course therefore, CEA's recommended credits are based on the ECTS credits assigned by VU Amsterdam. 1 ECTS equals 28 contact hours assigned by VU Amsterdam.
