Description

Sound Natural (Not Like a Textbook)

🔥 Unique Angle:

“You don’t sound unnatural because of grammar — you sound unnatural because of word choice.”

🔊 Pronunciation Focus:

Teach stress + emotion

  • exHAUsted (stress on HAU)

  • STARving (strong, emotional)

  • MASsive (clear stress on first syllable)

👉 Drill:
Say it:

  • neutral → emotional → exaggerated
    This helps them sound less robotic

🎯 Micro-Skills:

  • Avoid flat tone

  • Add feeling to words

  • Slight exaggeration = more natural

🧠 Correction Trick:

Instead of saying “wrong”, say:
👉 “That’s correct… but here’s how a British person would say it”

🎭 Signature Activity:

“Upgrade Game”

  • Student speaks normally

  • You interrupt: “Upgrade that”

  • They must improve instantly
