I have studied pronunciation and phonology in college for 4 years so this unit was mostly revision for me. I think this would be an extremely difficult unit to get your head around without being in a classroom environment, particularly the phonological component. Considering stress and intonation in this amount of detail was new for me. I like the way there are some rules and terminology to refer to, however I think that due to the inconsistency of these I would be trying to encourage students to innately develop these skills as opposed to referring to rules. I feel that this can only be achieved, like learning an instrument, with frequent and short practice. I would therefore aim to target pronunciation in every lesson but only for a short period.
