This unit covers a detailed overview of pronunciation and phonetics, which is necessary for successful language students. They need to distinguish how sounds, written words, and tone work in the new language; this will help with their self-confidence and make learning easier. I learned about the theory aspect of phonetics, but I found the teaching ideas to be most helpful. I actually am studying Linguistics right now, and the IPA chart was familiar. Acting things out is a great way to get students speaking more accurately. Gestures and exaggerated mouthing are their own visuals which students can mimic. My high school French teacher moved her arms to remind us of accent marks, so I have experienced that hands-on learning as well that I can transfer to my students.
