No doubt, as I can see, the document on RP covers all the points related to it.

However, all
the points may not be appropriate to discuss in classroom with students at this stage and
might not be effective to create a kind of positive and healthy learning environment.
Therefore, I would suggest you think of focusing on a few points that are relevant and
practical for your students.

Points can be considered to discuss in the classroom:

Received Pronunciation (RP)

a) What is RP?
B) Why learn RP?
C) How to learn?
C) Where to apply?

possible discussion points:

a) ‘Received Pronunciation’ because it is received by the average English speaker in the

world.
B) Its close relation with globalised corporate communication, and soft skills hence
learning RP holds the potential for learners of English.
C) Listening input (listening to radio, watching movies, documentaries, debates, and
other similar programmes which provide quality input for language learning. Besides,
putting honest efforts to express yourself (students) in English while having casual talks
with friends and formal discussions with teachers on campus.
D) Practice casual conversation on and off the campus, with teachers and at formal and
academic places like the college office, railway inquiry counter, and so on.

Guiding students on how to make use of ICT tools or digital applications on their mobile
phones:

1) Install Cambridge Dictionary + Plus (via Google play store): use this whenever there is
a lack of clarity on the part of word pronunciation, meaning, possible collocation and
to refer to a thesaurus.
2) Install Learn English Sounds Right (designed by British Council): use this to get the
pronunciation clarity at the sound level – how each vowel and consonant sound are
articulated in a proper way.
3) Refer English Pronunciation Dictionary to look up the UK and US variant
pronunciations of words provided in phonetic transcription. Along with the
dictionary you will receive a CD drive which helps you to install a pronunciation
application where you find a good number of exercises to practice your
pronunciation at various levels such as – sounds, consonant clusters, word stress,
intonation patterns, etc.)
4) Spend every day 10-15 minutes watching Tim’s Pronunciation Tips (available on BBC
English Learning) to improve your pronunciation more efficiently.
5) Use in your real-world situations whatever you learn in classroom or through self-
study about the English language.
