Beginners' BEFORESPEAKING with PRONUNCIATION PRINCIPLES--& More = 144-Page Student Text 

Created in an attempt to have an all-in-one classroom text for high-beginning to low-intermediate English-as-a-Second Language learners in oral-skills classes, BegBeSpw/PrPr is a condensed, simplified version of the content and principles of BEFORE SPEAKING: Activities for Practice & Preparation in Oral Language Skills along with its companion text PRONUNCIATION PRACTICE: Instruction & Activities in Vowel & Consonant Sounds, Syllables, Stress, Rhythm, and Other Features of Clear American Accent

Some especially helpful features of BegBeSpw/PrPr are an introduction to the differences between and uses of the 26 alphabet letters vs. the 40 or  more sounds of English, represented by phonetic symbols; “a mini-phonics/word-level reading course” focusing on and contrasting 16 vowel and 24 consonant sounds in context, with spelling instruction; a multi-cue system of pronunciation notation, which guides learners toward clear speech in reinforcing steps; and integration of oral-language features with basic sentence structures, grammar, vocabulary, and phrasing—all within the four realistic contexts of "Getting Started," "Talk About Things," "Talk About Places," and "Talk About People." There is a clear progression from smaller to larger language elements and from controlled exercises to communicative and expressive activities. 

BegBeSpw/PrPr invites multi-level adaptations. Steps may be added and/or omitted. Material may be presented and practiced quickly—or thoroughly.  The text itself includes Challenge Activities to address the curiosity, abilities, and energy of quickly advancing students.  
An inbound or separate Answer Key provides an additional teaching/learning aid to supplement face-to-face instruction or to facilitate independent learning.  So do three 70-minute CDs of native-speaker models. An available Teachers’ Guide offers encouraging and creative tips, ideas for effective additional activities, and much more.
