French pronunciation and phonemics workshop £10 per hr

French Pronunciation and Phonetics Workshop

This workshop is designed for learners who wish to acquire a clear and systematic understanding of French pronunciation. Many beginners find French phonetics challenging, particularly the nasal vowels and other sound patterns that differ significantly from English. This session aims to address these difficulties through structured, research-informed instruction.

Participants will be introduced to the principles of standard French phonetics, with a specific focus on the official International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) symbols used to represent French sounds. The workshop will cover the articulation of French vowels, nasal sounds, and consonants, as well as practical strategies for accurate pronunciation and word reading.

Through guided practice and targeted exercises, learners will develop greater confidence and precision in producing French sounds. The session is suitable for complete beginners as well as learners seeking to improve their phonetic awareness.

Materials: Participants are requested to bring a pen and a piece of paper.
