Русская фонетика с Кирой

Cost TBD

In progress!  My intention with this project is to create a flipped classroom resource that will improve students' pronunciation immediately.  Current plans are for Русская фонетика с Кирой to be an online mini-course designed to be assigned for homework within the context of a regular university-level course (or used by students independently).  It will cover the Russian default mouth position, key phonetics topics, individual sounds, and intonation.  I will do the teaching, I'll ask native speakers to provide the practice, and you will see some beautiful results from students in your class.  Fingers crossed!

The online course will include:

  • Video lessons with Kira teaching each topic in English
  • Interactive listening exercises for students
  • Video homework assignments with native speakers (listen & repeat, record yourself, listen back, reflect, send a copy to your teacher)

  • Assessment tools and guidance from Kira

  • Преподавательские беседы!  Periodic conversations via Zoom for teachers who are implementing the series.  Join us!

Help me plan it!

I would love to talk with as many Russian language teachers as possible about what they would like to see in a series like this.  If you are interested in being part of the planning (and possibly the execution) of this project, please email me at kiradimattia@gmail.com and let me know – I will invite you to some Zoom group confabs!  Stay tuned!
