Draw Me a Picture - Pronunciation Aids for Visual LearnersJudy Thompson
TESL Canada 2015 Presentation:
What is the difference between Written and Spoken English? How colors can bridge reading to pronunciation? What does the Roadmap for learning to speak English look like and how is English similar to other languages? See the answers to all of these questions and more in this radical approach to teaching/learning speaking.
Draw Me a Picture: Tools for Visual LearnersJudy Thompson
What would a picture of language acquisition look like? The 6-Point Model for Speaking English shows you along with images for every aspect of language learning from the historical breakdown between Writing and Speaking in 1476 and the 6-Point Model (which is essentially the road map to fluency), to Venn diagrams on how English compares to other major languages are all represented in pictures. This presentation features a series of images that show how to teach learners to speak English quickly and confidently using simple tools they already have - ABC's and Colors. Draw Me a Picture was presented at TESL Canada 2015 and TESL Ontario 2015. Since a picture says a thousand words there is a lot of material to digest in this talk. For copies of the images email judy@thompsonlanguagecenter.com
Workshops on this accelerated learning system are also available.
Literacy and Pronunciation - Making the impossible PossibleJudy Thompson
I am frequently asked if there is any point teaching Pronunciation to Literacy level learners? Don't they have enough on their minds? It is not only possible, it's empowering and fun to teach Pronunciation from the moment students begin to study English. I'll show you how.
If you want to teach English pronunciation, you have to first come up with a plan about how you want your lessons to progress. Will you be breaking the students into groups? Also know that students tend to learn well from educators who remain consistent. Make a schedule and try to keep up with it.
Teaching pronunciation to English learners is more than "repeat after me" and more than theory and looking at pictures. Let's take a multisensory approach.
Power point presentation for T4T the Technology for Teachers Conference, TESL Toronto January 18, 2014. 'Teacher Judy's Sound Dictionary' for Android and Apple devices is a $1.99 solution to North American pronunciation. The app goes both ways. People who read English can look up how to pronounce words and people who have heard words can look up how to spell them.
Teaching pronunciation to ESOL students is as fraught with challenges as negotiating a 3-D maze. This slideshow presents my approach, and gives a few tips.
This keynote for the TESL Niagara Conference 2014 was teacher training lesson on a quick and dirty method for teaching anyone to speak English with the Thompson Vowel Chart from the back of a business card and an elastic band. First, participants had to throw out (or at least relegate to a back burner) everything they thought they knew about English and how to teach it. We started from scratch using only features of English that are always true and the information students already know - their name, the alphabet and colors. The 1 hour presentation trotted out a system for teaching speaking to students of all levels and provides students with the tools they need to figure out pronunciation without a teacher present.
A good time was had by all!
An hour-long PowerPoint presentation from the TESL Conference in Calgary, Alberta November 1, 2013. Includes the Thompson Vowel Color Chart that maps the correct pronunciation of every word in English onto a single sheet of paper.
If you only ever teach ESL/EFL students one thing in Pronunciation let it be this. Research shows the best way to teach new information is by attaching it to old information (things learners already know). What is the first and often only thing students know in a new language? The names of colors. This webinar teaches how to use the names of colors, ABC and first language as an accurate, inclusive foundation for the pronunciation of all English
From a Language Coaching perspective, any two languages are more the same than different. This presentation measures the clearly defined patterns of English conversation with the Arabic language to see exactly where they are the same and how they differ. Using first language in this way shortens learning time and builds confidence in students.

A 3 hour presentation at Centennial College in Toronto. The workshop showcased the English Phonetic Alphabet (EPA) and Thompson Vowel Chart. It included handouts and in-class exercises for teachers of EAP, ESL and International Students.
How to Teach Pronunciation: Getting StartedJudy Thompson
We asked hundreds of ESL/EFL teachers, "If I could wave a magic wand and fix one thing to help you teach Pronunciation - what would it be?" The number one answer was - How do I start? I created a webinar to answer this great question (link to recording of the webinar http://bit.ly/1SW62M7) and these are the slides from that webinar.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

3. The Presentation
1. A short History of English showing speaking as a
different language than writing
2. The Sounds of English

2. Vowels – sounds that stretch
3. Take away pronunciation tools students can use
anywhere
5. Checking in
(Am I talking too fast?)
English speaking as completely separate from English
writing
The history provides context for students and their
education so far
It is not their fault that their speaking has not gone as well
as they’d hoped
We have a clean slate
– a fresh start for some new thinking
6. Framework for Speaking
We are at zero
What we put in place now is a structure for how speaking
works in all situations
Students can use this framework outside of
class, independent of teacher support, for the rest of their
lives
Today we’ll cover 1 and 2 from a set of 6 powerful tools from
Speaking Made Simple
No other speaking program works like this
7. 2. Sounds

13. EPA Vowels
The first thing people learn in a new language is the
names of the colors
Inside the names of 16 common colors in English are
the 16 vowel sounds of English
Students learn the colors of words and crazy English
spelling is no longer a barrier to confident speaking
20. Secret Treasure in the Vowel Chart
Students understand the most important feature of
English organically – you just wake it up in them
English is a stress-based language
The stressed syllable determines the color of the word
Every word in English is a color
BAnana is not a word
Neither is banaNA
The word is baNAna
There are no variations. Banana is a Black word
21. What color is your name?
It is one of the colors on the Thompson Vowel Chart
Every word in English is somewhere on that chart!
* Transformation
FYI
If the word-stress isn’t right, a native English speaker
can’t guess what is being said

We walked and talked we wokt an tokt
And talked and walked an tokt an wokt
Walked and talked wokt an tokt
Talked and walked tokt an wokt
23. 3. Take Away for Students
Every word in English is a color
English is a stress-based language – if someone can’t
understand word stress is the problem not ‘accent’
Accents don’t matter – everyone has an accent – only
word stress matters
24. Take Away for You
The other four tools we did not talk about today are:
Content words carry message – grammar doesn’t
Linking – all spoken words start with consonants
Expressions – English is idiomatic
Body Language – non-verbal is 80% of the message
It was my goal to show you a new way of looking at
Spoken English and how to teach it
And to assure you that a full range of materials are
available if you are interested
