The summer is now on its way and although the school year is coming to an end the British Council still has fun activities for learners. If you know anyone aged 10-18 you can encourage them to take part in our word search competition but they must move fast as it ends on June 10th. You can also watch out for our treasure hunt competition which will be starting on June 17th. The prize will be a laptop, which will help the lucky winner to study English more easily.

 | Global English and the teaching of pronunciation |
|
|
The emergence of so many different kinds (or 'varieties') of international English has caused a number of linguists to question the use of native speaker pronunciation models in the teaching of English. This article presents my research into the pronunciation of global English and gives some teaching implications. |
