This Week’s Contest: Pronunciation Problems

The response to our last contest on teaching the Perfect Tense didn’t bring in the same number of submissions as past contests: are you all avoiding this grammar point? ☺ But we did get a handful, and the winner is Michelle B. in South Korea. She uses a diagram on the whiteboard to show the differences between past occurrences (X) and those that take place over a period of time (a sweeping line), as shown below:






Well done, Michelle—you get five free credits from English Toolbox! For our next contest, tell us how you solved a particularly difficult pronunciation problem. Send in your tried-and-true methods to info@englishtoolbox.com by 24 June, and we’ll pick the best one and publish it in this space next week. The winner will receive five free credits from English Toolbox (which can be used to get up to five exercises) even if s/he isn’t a subscriber!
