Description: Not confident about teaching pronunciation? Learning about voicing differences in English is an essential starting point. Pronunciation is the most neglected area of English language teaching, yet it remains one of the most important tools we can give our students. This talk is for those who would like to know more about some of the more common pronunciation errors that appear in grammatical forms, some of the more challenging sounds for those studying in Ireland and practical advice on how to incorporate this knowledge into the classroom at every level.

Bio: Mary Shepherd was first thrown into teacher training early in her career when she was asked to use her Linguistics background to teach Phonology on pre-service courses. Teaching and examining today, it is clear that the mission to make pronunciation more accessible to teachers and learners is just as relevant as ever.
