There are some techniques for indication and teaching intonation such as nonsense words, be gesture, humming or singing. Also, stress words can be different each time. We can teach students indication and stress by using some techniques such as contrastive stress, by gesture, choral work ,the board and stress marks. Articulation is also important subject too. Teaching techniques for the pronunciation of individual sounds can be peer dictation, modelling your own mouth, visuals, phonemes, tongue twisters.
