When playing the nationality audio, have students clap on the stressed syllable. For example, for "Ja- pan -ese," they should clap loudly on the third syllable.
English is not a phonetic language. You cannot guess pronunciation by looking at letters. The audio for Unit 1 teaches you that “Europe” starts with a /j/ sound (yoo-rup) and that “hour” is silent (our). By listening and repeating, you build mouth muscles.
When you hear "Where are you from?" , do not translate it into your native language. Try to associate the sound directly with the concept of a map or a country.
The audio for Unit 1 is divided into distinct sections, each targeting a specific language skill. 1. Unit 1.1: Names and Nationalities
