How does the British pronunciation with Say It Better course work?
At the beginning of the course you will get to know the sounds typical of the British English accent. Then you go through the sound material from the chapters, dedicated to specific sounds, consisting of presentations and exercises. By solving them, you carry out a self-assessment, indicating one of three possible options (I Know, I Don’t Know, I Almost Know). Based on this answer, the SuperMemo algorithm prepares your individual repetition plan.
Each chapter begins with a short animation presenting the formation of a given sound. Then you get to know words in which the discussed sound appears and perform 8 exercises with a gap, consisting in correctly writing down what you hear. Then you are shown 8 pairs of similarly sounding words (or 8 single words if there are no such pairs for a given sound), and then you move on to a group of exercises in which you select one of the two sounds for a given word or one of the two words for the sound being played. In the last section of the chapter, you will find 10 sentences that reinforce the correct pronunciation of the words on the previous pages. You can check the correct pronunciation yourself by comparing it with the recorded version or using the speech recognition function available in mobile applications for Android and iOS.
