Teaching Phonetics Course
Since phonetics is the study of speech sounds and the technicalities behind it, Teaching Phonetics trains the trainers on the art of pronunciation. The candidate studying this course will not only be able to teach students how to enunciate properly but also brush up on their own pronunciation and enunciation skills. This is an important component of the program because an ESL trainer must have flawless pronunciation and enunciation capabilities.
Curriculum
The curriculum is divided into 4 phases
The candidate gets a thorough look into phonology and phonetics and the difference between them. The curriculum is broken down into four parts where each part deals with the mechanisms of pronunciation. The trainer is taught how to teach students correct pronunciations, organs of speech (the organs that facilitate speech sounds), vowels and consonants, and articulation. The course also focuses on stress and intonation, and weak and strong forms of speech. Teaching Phonetics is a fun program and also explains why proper pronunciation is essential for our speech skills.
Methodology
At London College of Teachers and Trainers, we follow the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach where we encourage our students to communicate and practice in the target language.

What our Students Say
The modules were simple to understand and very informative. The support staff were always on time to over guidance regarding the course and the college. The assignments were given on time and response was very good. I would recommend this school for anyone aspiring to be a teacher in any area.
Mary Maina Nairobi, KenyaWhen I was looking forward to upgrade my skills, I come across LCTT. Manisha has promptly responded and suggested the best course for me. PG Diploma in SEN Teacher's Training. Tutor Support from Sudipta Ma'am and Senior Mentor Arpita Ma'am, were very encouraging and clarified any doubts and given very constructive feedback. I have already recommended my juniors and friends to take up relevant courses offered by LCTT. I am very happy with the learning experience from LCTT.
Lucy Yashoda Guntur, IndiaI was looking online at different recruiters and saw Korvia suggested LCTT for the certificate. After checking them out, I found that the prices were reasonable and that they even had a summer sale going that I was able to take advantage of. The course was quick and efficient so that it was easy to focus on exactly what they wanted me to get from each module.
Nikki Hutchison Lawrence, United StatesMy experience with this company was good overall! They will quickly give me feedback on my assignments and answer any questions that I had. Super helpful that I can download the course material for future use and the videos were helpful.
Bianca J Melendez Lopes Florida, United StatesI took this TEFL course with the intent to someday teach in South Korea but J also found it to be helpful for my own language learning as well as my future plans to be an university professor. I did find the grammar terminology to be specific to this course though, which was a little odd.

Sanam Tahir Atlanta, USAThe information provided was thorough and easy to read and understand. The quizzes were useful to see if you had gained the required knowledge for each module. I definitely feel better prepared although perhaps a few more examples could be useful, e.g. a completed lesson plan.
