«Teachers provide a social and intellectual

environment in which students can learn»

James Macgregor Burns

Teacher’s Word:

Every language is impossible without phonetics. Phonetics is the music for any language and how we pronounce all sounds depends whether people like our pronunciation or not. I try to improve pupils pronunciation from a primary school with the help of songs, rhymes, patters, provebs. There are many sounds in English which are not exist in Russian or Kazakh.

They are [h] [w]. My task is to teach my younger students to pronounce English words correctly.
