/ˈwaɪ ˈwɜːk ˈwɪð prəˌnənsiːˈeɪʃən?/
Why work with pronunciation?
/ˈwaɪ ˈwɜːk ˈwɪð prəˌnənsiːˈeɪʃən?/

• There’s a bad correspondence between spelling and sound;
/fəˈnetɪk ˈsɪmbl= z/PHONETIC SYMBOLS
• Teachers can help students visualize the difference between what they are saying and what they should be saying (WYSIWYG!)
• Knowing phonetic symbols allows students to become more independent (eg; student can look up new words in the dictionary);
