授業の方法

We will be practicing and perfecting every aspect of English pronunciation, starting with advanced techniques for clarifying vowels and consonants in speech before progressing to presentational and theatrical skills, such as stronger breathing and and much louder and clearer vocal sounds, for performing in public. A variety of activities will reinforce and extend current familiarity with contemporary English. Class discussion, including small group work prior to plenary sessions, will be supplemented by frequent tests of a student's ability to remember and use new advanced vocabulary.

成績評価方法

There will be no formal exam for this course, but students will be continuously assessed on their attendance, committed class participation, and performance in occasional progress tests. Regular attendance is essential as a student's progress and final grade is based on class performance and on frequent vocabulary tests.
