Explore our course roadmap

The “Basic Pronunciation” course at ECE is scientifically designed, focusing on the core elements of English pronunciation across 5 intensive sessions:

Session 1: Vowel Foundations

Deep dive into English vowels: You will explore and clearly distinguish between different types of English vowels, including monophthongs (e.g., /ɪ/, /e/, /æ/), diphthongs (e.g., /eɪ/, /aɪ/, /ɔɪ/), and long/short vowels (e.g., /i:/ and /ɪ/). Understanding the nature of each vowel is the first step toward accurate pronunciation.
Mastering mouth positioning: You will receive detailed guidance on how to position your tongue, lips, and jaw to produce each vowel sound accurately. Practice exercises will help make your mouth muscles more flexible for natural sound production.
Recognition and production practice: Through diverse listening and speaking exercises, you will train your ability to recognize and pronounce vowels accurately within words and sentences.

Session 2: Conquering Consonants – Clarity in every syllable

Decoding “tricky” consonants: You will get familiar with and practice consonants that often challenge Vietnamese learners, such as /θ/, /ð/, /ʃ/, /ʒ/, /tʃ/, /dʒ/, /ŋ/. Teachers will guide you on how to produce these sounds and distinguish them from similar sounds in Vietnamese.
Natural consonant clusters: Learn how to combine consonants naturally and fluently in clusters (e.g., “str” in “street”, “spl” in “splash”, “spr” in “spring”). Practicing these clusters helps you pronounce vocabulary more naturally, like a native speaker.
Intensive sound practice: Our exercises are scientifically designed to improve accuracy and fluency. You will practice single words, phrases, and sentences to apply your knowledge to real-world communication.

Session 3: Syllables & Word Stress – Stressing correctly, sounding great

Understanding syllables: Learn the concept of syllables and how to identify the number of syllables in a word. Mastering this helps you break down words into smaller parts, making them easier to pronounce.
Mastering stress rules: You will learn basic English word stress rules, such as how two-syllable words are typically stressed, and rules for different parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives). Applying these rules makes your speech sound natural and easy to follow.
Intensive stress practice: Practice pronouncing words with different stress patterns through exercises and interactive games. Regular practice helps you develop a natural reflex for word stress.

Session 4: Rhythm & Sentence Stress – Finding the flow

Expanding stress to sentences: You will extend your knowledge from individual words to full sentences. Understanding sentence stress helps you speak English with better rhythm and intonation.
Learning to emphasize: Learn how to stress important words in English sentences to create a natural rhythm that engages the listener. This skill helps you convey your message more effectively and expressively.
Sentence pattern practice: Practice speaking using specific sentence patterns to get comfortable with sentence stress and natural rhythm. This helps you build the habit of speaking with proper intonation.

Session 5: Intonation – Expressive and natural communication

Exploring natural intonation: Get familiar with natural English intonation, including rising and falling patterns. Understanding intonation helps you convey emotions and attitudes when speaking English.
Distinguishing English vs. Vietnamese intonation: Learn the fundamental differences between English and Vietnamese intonation to avoid common mistakes caused by your native language.
Diverse intonation practice: Practice various sentence types (questions, statements, exclamations) to communicate more naturally and expressively. This helps you convey your message with nuance and effectiveness.
