Sounds in Action: English Pronunciation Worksheets is a collection of activity
sheets for upper-intermediate and advanced students of English, designed to help
them improve their pronunciation through meaningful practice. The material focuses
on words that learners often find challenging and places them in real-life contexts,
making pronunciation work more practical and engaging. It aims not only to develop
accurate pronunciation but also to build vocabulary through relevant examples.
The resource is a compilation of various practice tasks that can be used by
teachers as supplementary material in a pronunciation course or by students for
self-study. It should also be noted that the worksheets focus on British English, the
only exception being Worksheet 28 (addressing selected differences in pronunciation
between British and American English). All accompanying audio recordings are available
for download from the publisher’s website.
To make full use of the resource, we recommend that the students practise
reading the sentences provided in the activities aloud and engage in discussions about
the topics presented in the examples. In a classroom setting, teachers are encouraged
to prompt students to ask additional questions to further drill the pronunciation of the
challenging words. Additionally, students could explore scenarios in which a given
expression may be used. This approach goes beyond pronunciation practice and
enhances students’ ability to use the language in context.
