Tesl listen and repeat method
- 1. Listen and Repeat Method: Phonology and Behaviourism Claire Benton Paige Opdahl
- 2. • Phonology- The Branch of linguistics that deals with the system of sounds in a particular language • Behaviourism-The theory that animal behavior can be explained in terms of conditioning with out appeal to thoughts or feelings.
- 3. Perception and Production • 2 Main Ideas – “students who cannot hear a particular English contrast have no chance of reproducing it” – “Some subject with poor discrimination could still pronounce the sounds correctly” – ”Kinesthetic sensation maybe at least as important as auditory feedback”
- 4. “Spectrograms of syllables "dee" (top), "dah" (middle), and "doo" (bottom) showing how the onset format transitions that define perceptually the consonant [d] differ depending on the identity of the following vowel (Formats are highlighted by red dotted lines; transitions are the bending beginnings of the formant trajectories.)
- 5. • “…both imitation and discrimination drills have an important place in teaching of pronunciation as a means to help articulation become more automatic and routinised” • “Many materials have sought to integrate perception and production as equal components in pronunciation training”

- 7. Reflection • How does perception effect production? • What is the difference between imitation and discrimination? • In your opinion, is it more effective to use kinesthetic methods or imitation drills?
