This is simply because some sounds from english words do not exist in the Korean alphabet. One such case is the “r” sound. Koreans substitute the “r” sound from the english alphabet with the “l” sound from their alphabet— known as Hangul— which they believe comes closest to mimicking the english “r” sound.

Problems for learners in a Country of your choice: Italy In this paper I will address the issues I face as a teacher from the context of living and working in Italy, as well as the common problems my students encounter while learning and speaking English. I also want to draw attention to the input culture and society has on language, and look at how these factors influence dynamics within the classroom. Of course, it is nearly impossible to view ones self outside your own given cultural perspective, so as a result of this I will also be discussing my own assumptions on how I "imagined" people might act, compared to the reality of the situation. Often I neglect to take into account these differences, simply because I was raised in America, where I am used to a different set of cultural...  [Read more]

It definitely made it easier that I had come across it previously while attempting to learn Korean. Overall, everything that the unit provided was new to me and...  [Read more]

Pronunciation Problems for Chinese Students of English As a global language, English has been popularly taught as the second language in China for quite a few years. Now there are more Chinese people learning English on various purposes, such as applying for a higher paid job, studying and living abroad, or establishing business with western countries. According to my experience of learning and teaching English, it is harder to master English pronunciation than English grammar for Chinese students. Chinese grammar may appear quite simple compared to that of many highly-inflected Western languages (e.g. Russian, Latin, etc.), or even the low-scale verb conjugations, for instance, of English (e.g. "swim, swam, swum") because of the lack of inflections. Even though there are similarities...  [Read more]

In hangman, all you do is say letters, and not even very quickly. I much prefer using games from the First Lessons section as a warmers for every class. Pass the ball is great, for example.
