Pronunciation
skill
Pronunciation is
essential for speaking and understanding spoken English well. It should be the FIRST thing you
learn when studying a language. You should focus not only on how to
make the different sounds ,but also how to hear the sounds. The
people find production difficult for many reason like: Many sounds in English are not in your native language. For example, the 'th' sound and the 'r' sound
are difficult for many speakers, Combinations of sounds can be hard to pronounce. These include 'consonant clusters', Syllable structure can vary a lot. In many languages the structure is a lot
simpler, for example: Consonant Vowel Consonant Vowel, Words are not pronounced
the way they are spelt and Words change their pronunciation when in a sentence.
I find this two website for
practices how to pronounce the word correctly. It is too benefit and helpful
for learner and who interesting in English language.

In the two website, There are a system of symbols
for writing the sounds of English. We have a guide to
these symbols and also videos to show how to
pronounce each of the sounds. There are also activities to practice identifying
the difference between certain sounds which may sound similar. Interactive
quizzes to test your knowledge of and help you learn about English pronunciation.
Children
able to use it from 4 to 10 years.
There
is some activity in this website:
1) Key and Pin[ I ] [i:]:
in
this activity the learner able to click the listen button to hear each word
below. They all have the same /i:/ sound as key. When you think you can identify the sound click continue.
2)
videos:
The learner able to show video about the how
to pronounce it the long and short vowel and have a chance to repeat the sound .
I think it is a useful to know the sound of each letter.
3) Vowels:
Students look at an image of a phoneme and then try to find the
same phoneme in one of the following words. This can be done with students
working alone or in groups or even as part of a class pronunciation practice
game. It makes learning the phonetic alphabet, which is so important for ESL
students, more enjoyable.
Pronunciation skills is very important skills and I get benefit also from your post
