To strengthen the English language skills of the student body, English Pronunciation Workshop was held, developed by Master Diego Diaz, professor of English and linguist guest. This activity, aimed at first year students enrolled in the English Foundations program, allowed them to learn relevant information about specific sounds of the English language, understand the importance of the vocal and articulatory apparatus and its function when pronouncing words.
The activity was organized in collaboration with the Directorate of General Curriculum and the Associate Dean of Students (DAE) with the active support of English teachers. The activity provided students with the opportunity to improve their speaking and listening skills, thus complementing the learning acquired in the English classes they receive in the program.
During the event, students had the opportunity to understand the importance of identifying the different sounds, as well as the articulation of these sounds to stimulate a correct pronunciation of words. Through the discrimination and practice of sounds, the development of this activity seeks to motivate students to develop phonological awareness, improve the pronunciation of the sounds of the English language. At the same time, it promotes a more intelligible pronunciation which fosters effective communication.
Activities such as these promote academic quality and the development of essential skills for effective communication in English as a global language.
