Pronouncercizing

Video #1 of 2: The Classroom Video (DVD)

ESL pronunciation video

The Classroom Video is one of the two videos in the Pronouncercizing Video Set. The Classroom Video is 34 minutes long.

The Classroom Video is based on a lesson that lasts two and a half hours. However only 30 minutes of selected video footage of the class is included in the video. Ms. Alexander teaches all of the Whole Body Warm-ups, the five key Mouth Warm-ups, and the "Pure" Vowels, then gives a lesson focusing on personal pronouns to demonstrate how Pronouncercizing movements can be incorporated when it is not the primary focus of the lesson.

The 23 students in this video are students from 15 different countries.* They are students from six experienced ESL teachers. The students’ levels of ESL range from ESL Beginning Literacy through ESL Low Intermediate. The majority of the students have completed approximately 120 hours of ESL study. Five of them have been studying in a multi-level class.

This is the first time these students have been in a class together, the first time Ms. Alexander has worked with them, and the first time they have encountered Pronouncercizing. As with any ESL class, this one has its own unique personality and needs.
