IMPROVEMENT ON MY PRONOUNCATION
Listening and pronouncation course is a lesson which fistly we started to take in university.
Because of our educational system,while we are preaparing for university exam,we only studied on gramatical rules of English.We didnt learn anything about how we are able to speak fluently and undestand easily.Thus,at first lacking of practice caused unwillingness to this course.
Also,the phonetic structure of Turkish is more comperensible and clear comparing to English.So,as a turkish student ı had some difficulties in producing some sounds of english.especially,there is no need stressing and intonation in turkish ponouncation but in English they can change the meaning of your expression.
On the other hand, since I started to take this course, I have easily realized the improvement on my own and I have enjoyed of every stage of it. Since I am training in education and want become an effective teacher,I have to gain some expert knowledge on english.So, practices and exercises we have made during this course helped us gain abilities of effective speaking and listening.
Doing physical exercises for producing articulations was very helpful for our pronouncing and spelling english words.thanks to listening exercise, I have started to give importance on different accent of english speakers.Distinguishing different accent enabled and fastaned my learning process; and so, understanding and speaking english became more easy.
I am very content of having taken this course.It has positive impact on me from all side.I think it is the most important necessity of an learners during the improving process themselves in English language
