Work on your pronunciation

It's a good idea to work on your pronunciation whenever you have time. Here are some resources that can help you:
  • the Sky Pronunciation suite which is installed on BC computers both in the CALL Room and the SAC (library)
  • a phonetics site where you can see and hear how the different vowel and consonant sounds are produced (click on American English)
  • mouseovermusic.com where you can move your mouse over the lyrics and hear a song
  • shiporsheep.com where you can practise minimal pairs (similar words where just the vowel sound is different)
  • stress monsters a game where you can test your knowledge of which syllable is stressed in a word
